Not Born with Sin Nature

[1stCenturyLady]

Yes I was doing so with you.

But seriously, you can do an engine search in the bible sight I offered. With you I suppose I can at least give author and chapter like you do.

Fair is fair.

Doesn't the Blue Letter Bible give the address when you look up a word? Biblegateway does. You can even look up a verse and see a list of what many other translations of the same verse says. But, I'm a teacher, and I like to have the address to look up the surrounding verses for context. And I would think you would be on here to teach, not just post.

Romans 3:23
23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God

Romans 5:
Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned— 13 (For until the law sin was in the world, but sin is not imputed when there is no law. 14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those who had not sinned according to the likeness of the transgression of Adam, who is a type of Him who was to come. 15 But the free gift is not like the offense. For if by the one man’s offense many died, much more the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abounded to many. 16 And the gift is not like that which came through the one who sinned. For the judgment which came from one offense resulted in condemnation, but the free gift which came from many offenses resulted in justification. 17 For if by the one man’s offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.)

18 Therefore, as through one man’s offense judgment came to all men, resulting in condemnation, even so through one Man’s righteous act the free gift came to all men, resulting in justification of life. 19 For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one Man’s obedience many will be made righteous.

You're not correcting the reading that death passed upon all men, because all men sinned, not sin passed upon all men by sin nature, which is the false teaching I once believed.

In order to rightly divide the word of truth, we must first rightly divide between what is written and what is not.

The doctrine of being born with the sin nature into this world, is saying that sin passes upon all souls at birth, which is not written. I know that, because I used to teach that until very recently. I stand corrected by Scripture.

And I have no problem at all with it, since like you I never believed Christians continue with the 'sin nature' anyway. I never used the 'sin nature' as an excuse for sinning with being saved. I certainly did as a sinner, after all "We're only human".

For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one Man’s obedience many will be made righteous.

And so, the second proving Scripture must also be addressed:

The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him. (Ezek 18)

The sin of the first father did not pass upon his sons by nature, but only by example, which all men have followed that sinned as he.

And so it is by righteousness of Christ, who did no sin, and whose example is not to sin, and those who follow His example do His righteousness as he is righteous are also made righteous as he.

Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous. (1 John 3)

Righteousness by faith is doing His righteousness. Unrighteousness is by doing the devil's unrighteousness.

No babe born into the word is 'imputed' unrighteousness and sinful by natural birth.

I am glad you are one seeking to correct me, because I know you are a serious one, unlike others. However, there is no contest here. If you wish to show how I am reading those two verses wrong, you must address them specifically with a better reading and understanding. You must show how my reading is not the simple sense of the Scripture.

The truth is the Scripture does not say the sin nature has passed upon all men, but that death passes upon all men that commit sin: not until then.

But Scripture knows that all have, for God has seen all men have done so, except His only Son. No one is saying that there was or ever will be another soul like Jesus born into the world that does not sin, before being saved from sinning.

 

[robert derrick]

And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. (Matthew 1)

Scripture says we are saved from sinning the sins we once sinned, which became our sins by doing them, not by being born with them. Scripture does not say we are saved from a sin nature born with into the world.

No man owns sins, until he does them, and then he must own up to them to be forgiven by God for sinning.

 

[robert derrick]

Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. (Eph 2)

Natural man sins naturally, because he has learned to, not because any man was naturally born to sin from the womb.

Natural man that has learned to naturally sin make themselves by nature of their sins children of wrath and death by their sins.

The same is for Christians that return to their old sins to do the same as natural sinners:

For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor. (Gal 2)

Sinners are by nature natural sinners, because they have made themselves so by sinning, not because they were born that way.

Natural born sinners is a lie and an excuse for sinning.

We are made partakers of the divine nature of Christ and given His power within us not to sin and be no more sinners that naturally sin.

 

[robert derrick]

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

We confess our sins, not our 'sin nature', for which there is no need to confess, and likewise has no forgiveness.

Sinners that come to God by Jesus Christ do not confess their 'sin nature', but their sins.

The nature of all souls made by God is immortality, not sin.

The nature of the body born into the world is mortal, not sinful.

 

[robert derrick]

And finally, Scripture proves once for all the truth:

And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?

The false teaching of being born with sin of the parent leads the disciples to ask what parent sinned, that the son was born blind.

Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.

Jesus declares no man is born by sin of the parent, which is the teaching of being born with sin nature of the parent.

They answered and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.

The only ones teaching being born in sin from the womb are the Pharisees, who believe their own traditions more than Scripture of God.

 

[robert derrick]

But, I'm a teacher, and I like to have the address to look up the surrounding verses for context. And I would think you would be on here to teach, not just post.

Which is why I don't give verses out of context, but only those that stand to prove the truth.

As I said, Scripture says that death passes upon all men, not sin, because all have sinned, not because all have been born with sin.

If you have another reading for that simple verse, then do so. I'd be glad to hear it.

I have Scripture proving plainly that God says sinners become sinners because they have sinned, not because they are born to it from the womb.

 

[Johann]

Adam wasn't born with a sin nature, but with free will. When he chose to sin he took on the nature of the serpent. And that is what we all have interited, except for the one born from the seed of the Father. And He is why those born again have died to their sin nature and have inherited the divine nature of Jesus. That is why we MUST be born again of the Spirit. Romans 8:9

Sounds like Armeniasm and Charles Finney...the sinful nature is definitely within believers as well.
Read Romans 6,7 and 8
As long as we are in the flesh and the motions of the sarki/sin nature in us and it is not removed as some advocate.
Think for yourself, if we had no sin nature we would be like God, see?

Psa 51:5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.

Psa 51:5 (7) Surely, I was brought forth in avon; and in chet did immi conceive me [i.e., I was a sinner from conception].
OJB


Verse 5 asserts that David confessed that he was "shapen in iniquity," (Heb cholalti), "brought forth amidst labor pains," in a state, condition, of inherent disposition to practice deeds of iniquitous nature, as set forth, Job_14:4; Joh_3:6; Rom_5:12-14; Eph_2:3. This certifies that one has the germ of sin from conception and birth. Such is called original sin, total hereditary depravity, or birth-sin; Psa_58:3; Jas_1:15. Man was created in the likeness of God, "after his image," in a state of holiness, and innocence, Gen_8:21; But when Adam had sinned, it is declared, "Adam begat a son in his own likeness, after his image," Gen_5:3. David did not accuse his mother of sin in begetting him; He confessed instead that his deeds of sin sprang from a sin nature, received from the time of conception in his mother's womb, and from his birth in particular.
Pretty clear...
Sorry for butting in...

[GTW27]

The Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And The Lord was sorry that He had made man upon the earth, and it grieved Him to His heart.

But Scripture knows that all have, for God has seen all men have done so, except His only Son. No one is saying that there was or ever will be another soul like Jesus born into the world that does not sin, before being saved from sinning.

Of course I'm not "correcting" the reading that death came upon all men. But I don't agree with you that sin didn't also, because it did and I showed you, but you still won't acknowledge it, because you took a verse out of the contextual passage.

The sin nature is the "old man" of Romans 6:6-7. We can still die physically because of Adam's sin, but what died when we were born again was our nature - our spirit and soul. We now partake of the divine nature of Jesus as we abide in Him, because in Him there is no sin.

And he that doeth righteousness can ONLY do righteousness because of 1 John 3:5. See why context is so important. You took one verse and didn't see what changed.

5 And you know that He was manifested to take away our sins, and in Him there is no sin. 6 Whoever abides in Him does not sin. Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him. 7 Little children, let no one deceive you. He who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous. 8 He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil. 9 Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.

It is both SIN and DEATH that caused Jesus to come to earth to redeem us. Romans 8:2 And the law of the Spirit of life in Christ, has FREED ME FROM THE LAW OF SIN AND DEATH.

So, if you think you have lived your life without ever sinning, or even could have 1 John 1:10 says you make Him a liar, and His word is not in you. Why? Because ALL HAVE SINNED AND FALL SHORT OF THE GLORY OF GOD (WITHOUT CHRIST IN US). Why? Because of the works of the devil in all of us that Jesus came to destroy.

I don't believe the sin nature is in a Christian. So what does that make me? I'll tell you what - a child of God. 1 John 3:1-9

2 Peter 1:2-4
2 Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, 3 as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, 4 by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

 

[ScottA]

Here is the correct lineage of men since Adam, explained by Jesus:

You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it. John 8:44​

 

[1stCenturyLady]

But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.

And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man's work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear.

Neither death nor the judgment of God passes upon all men by birth with sin nature, but upon all men that have sinned and commit works of sin.

The sin nature is inside of us all BEFORE Christ, because of Adam's sin. What would you call it if NOW we have the divine nature of God. We must have had a nature that caused sin for Christ to come to destroy it as one of the works of the devil.

That sounds like a "sin nature" to me! :)

 

[Enoch111]

Sin has passed upon all men is a lie.

You are excelling in contradicting the Bible almost daily. Almost all your threads are heretical.

 

[quietthinker]

Sin has passed upon all men is a lie.

Death has passed upon all men. Why? Because all have sinned, not because all were born with the sin nature after Adam.

Sinners are made by sinning, not by sin nature.

Babies die......that's gotta say something......unless of course it is concluded that their sin was pooping their pants?
....and as an aside; men sin because they have a natural bent towards it.
Self honesty will reveal that without any difficulty!



BABYLON

Ahhhh Babylon!
that gratifying city of the senses
leaving the soul bereft.

Company men ply her marketplaces,
anonymous, without responsibility
the justified cover for vice and power.

On the run
relentlessly gouging for approval and money

It’s pulsing throng marching steadily
toasting its successes
unperturbed by consequences.

QT, do you believe we have the same sin nature we have when we are born once we are "born again" in this lifetime as we follow Jesus and abide in Him?

I'm not talking about our human nature that Adam was created with, but the nature he got when he sinned.
