A sin nature has been described in several ways, such as the 'propensity' to sin, or the natural 'inclination' to sin.

Since we ought to let Scripture describe Scriptural things of God, then the easy description of a 'sin nature' is lusting to sin in James 1, which is the will to sin in romans 7: The sin nature is the the sinful will of devils and men that sin willfully.

Therefore, to say that all men and women thereafter were born with a sin nature to sin, is to say that all men are now born with the sinful will of Adam and Eve, which they themselves were not made nor born with.

The teaching of men being born with the sin nature of another, is saying that man can pass on his own will to another by birth, and not just by instruction and example.

And since it is his will that he passes on by blood, then he must have power to will it as so.

Conclusion:
No man is born with the will to sin from any other man by blood and birth, much less some fool thousands of years ago.

There is no 'Adamic' race born captive to the will of any dead fool gone before.

Man is not born losers with will to sin against God, passed on by other losers sinning against God unto death.

I love my natural father, but I am not my father's spiritual nor willful son, neither coming into the world, nor being born again in the world.

The power to pass on One's own will by creation is that of Deity: the one true Creator and God.

Only God can pass on His will to one of His created beings by birth:

But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:

Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

This Scripture shows that only God the Creator has power to put His will into the hearts of men by birth.

Neither angels nor me are gods and creators with that kind of power: angels and men can only pass on their will by the persuasive power of instruction and example only.

No will of man, whether to do good or evil, is passed on by their own will and blood at birth.

We are all born of God in the beginning, even as Adam, who was the first son of God, or we make ourselves children of the devil by willfully receiving his sinful will of lust to sin against God.

Scripture says that all men become sinners and children of the devil, but sinning, not by birth: to become like another created being, we must do so by learning and receiving their will as our own.

That is why Christ needed come in the flesh to die and be resurrected bodily, so that having His will to love God with all the heart, could be once again by birth, and not just by persuasion of angels and men.

Yet say ye, Why? doth not the son bear the iniquity of the father?

This is the false imagination of men, that the sins of the parent are born by the son: that the sinful will is passed on birth.

This has nothing to do with possible physical defects by a sinful life of the parents, especially that of the mother. This only has to do with a spiritually sinful nature and will of the parents being passed on by blood. So that the soul is born with the will to sin and so is already dead by lust of the heart.

The soul that sinneth, it shall die.

It is the soul that sins willfully with the flesh. It's neither the soul nor the flesh sinning with will to sin at birth.

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.


This is exactly what the Scripture is saying in Romans 5, that only when the soul sins willfully, does death pass upon that soul of man, even as when Adam willfully sinned against God.

No man is born spiritually dead by the will of another man and his blood.

There is no such things as transmutation nor migration of one person's will to that of another.

For the sinful will of Adam to be passed on to all men, Adam would have needed the power to will it.

The idea of one man passing on his own will by blood to another is a the foolishness of natural man, who speaks of one man's blood as being specially different from another's. As though by blood alone, a man could pass on his own will and power in life.

The one blood of all men was never any different than another, beginning with the first man: Flesh and blood is mortal in nature, not willful in nature.

The only character passed on by gene and blood, is that if physical appearance, not of will.

If the will of the father were passed on to the child, then every strong-willed father would have a strong-willed child, and the same for the weak of will. But then, if the will of man is passed on by blood, then all men would be the same in will: whether strong or weak, good or evil.

Jesus Christ came to condemn such teaching, by condemning sin in the days of His own flesh, which was the same flesh and blood of all men, but way of David, Abraham, Noah, Seth, and Adam.

No special bloodline bearing it's own will, but just naturally mortal flesh and blood, that produces differing physical characteristics, but no will of it's own at all.

What of those that hold to being born with a sinful natural will by blood, and yet that will is taken away when born again? Should not their own children receive the good will of Christ now within the saved parents?

The whole foolish notion of being born with a sin nature, whether in the flesh and/or spirit, falls apart when correctly identifying that, as teaching man passes on his own will by blood to his children, and he must will it to do so.

It teaches that men are born of the will of men in their blood, whether good or evil.

We all share in the same flesh and one blood of all men and women by creation of Christ.

The only share anyone has in the will of angels and men, is by choice to receive it, whether it be the good will of God through Jesus Christ by birth, or the sinful will of any man by instruction and example.

The liberty of the truth, is that we are all created good souls with pure hearts by Christ in the lowest parts of the earth, and lightened with His true light coming into the world to please God, not to serve the devil.

Neither angel nor man creates any other, in his own spiritual image and will.

Being born of again of Christ is exactly that: becoming newborn babes as though fresh from the womb, with regenerated and renewed cleanness of soul, purity of heart, and the mind of Christ.

Being born again by Christ is to become once again sons of God with His power and will to love Him and do good, not evil.

The only will passed onto to any creature, is God's will for live and righteousness of life:

Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.
