Speaking of Ephesus, I was just there is a spot where you can know you are standing where the Apostle Paul stood. When you stand there, you can hear your own voice bounce off the stone wall and everyone in the ampetheater of 14 thousand could hear you perfectely. My wife, way up says she could hear me whisper. The extent and depth of sin are topics discussed at theological schools all the time. The fact that mankind, as it says in Romans 3, Psalm 14 and Psalm 53 (the repeated Psalms) state the same thing. Mankind, dead in trespasses and sin "does not understand God", "does no good before God" and "does not seek God". And not only that but this is confirmed by the phrase "no not one".
Believing sin is only learned is very insufficient. It is inherited and learned by all mankind and the only remedy is the Grace of God and his love for folks like us on the cross. Your in Christ, SR.
I agree brother, and hope that you didn’t in any way get from the article that I deny original sin. Definitely by the Offense of the one mans , the many were constituted as sinners...Thank God for the obedience of the second man!Shalom and thank you for the comments.
