Featured The 5 Heads of Doctrine

I agree that we differ and that's fine Bluefalcon (interesting BB handle) I appreciate and respect your position because there are indeed varying views on this subject of the sin nature in mankind - how and where it originated.

To me the pedigree of aorist and their agreement in verse 12 finalizes it for me. I see your point to which I will say that Paul is contrasting our status in Christ (one man) that at His death in like manner all the children of God received eternal life.

Personally I was years coming to my final conclusion RE: the sin nature as I'm sure yours was not simply a conclusion out of a systematic theology (although mine was at first).

I am going to leave it at that brother Blue because IMO there is really no more to say.
Yes it is within the realm of possibility I may be wrong and secondly things can get really ugly at a prolonged BB debate (not you or I of course) of which I prefer to avoid.

Thanks
