Bert; THAT is the formula for converting the RIGHTEOUS; - not for converting the sinner. Christ Jesus came to save sinners - not righteous people.The mortal is DEAD in sin till grace and the Holy Spirit MAKE ALIVE. Jo 6:63 It is THE SPIRIT THAT QUICKENETH; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. Ro 8:11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, *HE* that raised up Christ from the dead SHALL also QUICKEN your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. Eph 2:1 And you hath *HE* QUICKENED, who were DEAD in trespasses and sins; _________ Mike wrote: from the ATASFIRBV (Add To and Subtract From Improperly Reformulated Bible Version) Please read and digest the same point as written above.Election by God is; - Providentially given the righteous position IN CHRIST before God! (Hearts wrought by Spirit alone) Otherwise they are in a state of sin from which THEY cannot spiritually decide to come to Christ. |

WOMI wrote: (a) rally around "Ban Yamil!" (b) Now, if Lurker can be a Calvinist and reject one of the most fundamental doctines of Reformed theology, then can I still be a synergist and believe that Christ saves only a predetermined few? I mean, its only fair. (a) You said it Yamil. (b) There have been a few people come onboard site and said they were Calvinists, but......... As for you Yamil - we all know for definite that you are a dyed in the wool, member of the SAS. ______________ Mike wrote: is there something in Scripture that says Adam's sin brought him eternal death? Hey Mike; You being one of the more intelligent theologians around, can you tell me where it says that Adam 'HAD' eternal life pre-sin?OH, And why did God say.... Gen 3:22 "And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, AND TAKE ALSO of the TREE OF LIFE, and eat, and LIVE FOR EVER:" So who gets to munch on the Tree of Life - and why? ![](https://media.sermonaudio.com/images/web/images/smilies/wink.gif) |

Lurker wrote: regardless of the fact that it makes a statute of the Law of Moses of no effect Prove it. ----------Adam created sinless. -A free will without hinderance. -He and Eve were THE human race albeit two. -His decision in this state affects the entire race, his posterity. -Thus representative before God of the race to come, in a status and position no other mortal ever stood or could ever stand. -Consequently the entire posterity receives (a) Generation from Adam and Eve in a "Fallen nature" (b) The liability for Adam's actions. This is not imputation????? Dic. IMPUTE:: 1. to attribute or ascribe: 2. to attribute or ascribe (something discreditable), as to a person. 3. Law. to ascribe to or charge (a person) with an act or quality because of the conduct of another over whom one has control or for whose acts or conduct one is responsible. 4. Theology. to attribute (righteousness, guilt, etc.) to a person or persons vicariously; ascribe as derived from another. 5. Obsolete. to charge (a person) with fault. OK Lurker As John has indicated You have not posted your hypothesis. Edify us!! Including why Deuter 24:16 proves us all wrong. Or does your hypothesis have no basis? |

Lurker wrote: (1) I can't believe I need to defend God , who can't lie (Heb 6:18) saying: "the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die" against Satan who was a liar from the beginning (John 8:44) saying: "Ye shall not surely die". They died(2) read 2 Cor 3:6-9 (1) We appear to be on entirely different frequencies. Sorry!(2) 2Cor 3:6-9 Has no apparent direct connection to the Covenant of Works and original sin and its transmission to mankind. Paul here, is merely comparing the ministry of the gospel(Spirit) with the ministry of the law(letter). You posted earlier that you were quote "generally reformed" u/q. I'm afraid on this point I do not recognise your theology from a reformed perspective. Sorry! God be with you. |

Lurker wrote: 1. (a) Did you compose this?(b) Hence, all were still "in Adam" and according to you; guilty of his sin. So why were not all put to death? 2. It's not difficult to believe that the progeny of Adam inherited his nature while rejecting the premise that they inherited his sin. 3. Better read my post again, Arlyss. I said nothing about "IMPUTED to progeny" 4. No. Adam and Eve were under the law of faith; Ref your #3 & 4 - Now I see where you are. It seems to be a matter of terminology, up to a point. On #3 the reason why I stuck "imputed" was to seek a response - it worked. You seem to dislike the use of impute here. Yes? - Are you of the "Realist" view in sin transmission? On #4 - It may seem a strange question but; "Is there any need for faith (Heb 11:1) when God is stood next to you in the garden?"2. Is it not specifically the "Fallen nature" which is inherited? Thus NOT the nature originally made by God. Was the flesh of Adam sinless before his sin? 1. (a) Yes. (b) The question applies equally to Adam and Eve. Why did God not put them to death!!! - Because of the divine purpose and plan including salvation in Christ. Thats almost like asking why did God plant the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. |

Lurker wrote: 1. To ignore these verses and quote other verses which seem to agree with your view2. a statute of Moses 3. Agreed. I have no qualm with Adam's fallen nature being innate to all his progeny. 1. I did not ignore them I simply tried to find out where you are coming from. Now that I have read this post of yours I must admit to being more confused.3. (Before #2) You agree??? Then what are you actually debating here? 2. Deu 24:16. (Instructions to Magistrates) Establishes that each is responsible for his own sin. A just God would have it no other way. God will save the elect and the rest are guilty as charged. Remnant Reconciled, by God, only IN Christ even though ALL are guilty. Lurker wrote: "The guilt of that sin is imputed to all his descendants, and the penalty executed upon them at their birth." is in gross error This appears to disagree with your final conclusion, where you agree with Adam's fallen nature imputed to progeny.Am I missing something in between? BTW Do you agree with Covenant of Works and federal headship of Adam? |

Lurker wrote: Thank you kindly, Arlyss, but this statement refuses reconciliation with... Rom 3:19 Rom 5:13 Jhn 1:17 Deu 24:16If Adam's sin is the innate sin of all mankind what purpose did this statute serve? All should have been put to death. This doctrine creates far too much tension in scripture especially pertaining to precious children. I'm not sure where you are coming from Lurker on this. Obviously there is enough statement of evidence to convict the sinner. Ro 3.9 What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin; 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; 1Jn1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.So are you doubting the connection with Adam, as opposed to the liability of the posterity? Ro 5.12, Sin comes from the adamic nature of pride and enmity in man, - Ro 8.7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. - This enmity is ONLY abolished by Christ Eph 2.15. Adam's sin demonstrated the human penchant for pride and enmity. |

Lurker wrote: would someone who believes Adam's original sin is imputed to all mankind in the womb from Moses forward Perhaps one thing prior to that Lurker may I direct you to A.A.Hodge's WCF commentary, viz....WCF ch 6 sec 3... "2. The guilt of that sin is imputed to all his descendants, and the penalty executed upon them at their birth. By the word "guilt" is meant, not the personal disposition which prompted the act, nor the personal moral pollution which resulted from it, but simply the just liability to the punishment which that sin deserved. By the term "impute" is meant to lay to the charge or credit of any one as a ground of judicial punishment or justification. This is the sense in which the phrase "to impute sin" or "righteousness" is used in the Bible. "David describeth the blessedness of the man unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works, . . . to whom the Lord will not impute sin. . . . Faith was imputed to Abraham for righteousness." (Rom. 4:3-9.) "God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them." (2 Cor. 5:19.)"

"Europe's share of the world's fighting-age males, which stood at 27% in 1914, is lower today (9%) than it was in 1500 (11%). Thus, the new clothes of European "pacifism" and "soft power" conceal its naked weakness."The god of mammon cannot 'afford' too many babies in todays family!! After all that would require the female to stay at home and loose career time. But the fruit of the womb is a 'reward' of God, so perhaps He has reduced the reward because western man has reduced church authority and Holy Law. Psalm 127:3 Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward. Why should God bless nations who reject Him and His Son!! |
