"Justification is not something that occurs in man, nor is it a process. It refers to the legal, judicial and forensic declaration of God. “It is to declare forensically that the demands of the law as a condition of life are fully satisfied with regard to a person, Acts 13:39; Rom. 5:1, 9; 8:30-33; I Cor. 6:11; Gal. 2:16; 3:11.”2 The ground of justification is Christ’s sacrificial death and perfect obedience to the law (i.e., “the righteousness of God,” Rom. 3:21). When a man by faith lays hold of Jesus Christ and His merits, God imputes that person’s guilt for sins past, present and future upon Christ on the cross. God also imputes Christ’s perfect righteousness to that sinner. The Father then declares that man righteous or just in the heavenly court. Because Christ has removed the guilt of that man’s sins past, present, and future legally before God, it is as though that man never committed sin. He is white as snow (Isa. 1:18). His record is perfect. Judicially, he is just as righteous and perfect as Jesus Christ. Since Christ’s perfect obedience is imputed to him, he has eternal life because Christ merited it for him."

A Democratic Conservative:I clicked the little maginifying glass next to your name and viewed your past posts. It is pretty clear that you supported Senator Obama, unless someone else posted under your name, which is entirely possible. Careful calling Banned a liar. I do appreciate your use of the 'word' JESUITICAL earlier on this thread. It gave me a good laugh. |

ENGINEER wrote: and re: thinking "the sinfulness of a woman passed to her offspring" see Ps. 51:5 "51:5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me. " Gen 3:16 " in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children" is read by many as the curse being, effectively, you will sorrow to have kids just as rotten as you are ! Those verses do not seem speak to the transfer of fallen nature from mother to child. I suppose you could make a reasonable case with the Psalm 51 verse, but you are stretching a bit on Gen 3:16.I am not going to argue my point (sin passed down from the father) because I am still open on this, and refuse to be dogmatic on something I am not convinced of. It does seem logical though. Engineer - what type of engineer are you? I am a mechanical engineer working in automotive tooling (die cast). |

If the sinful nature is passed from Man, and not woman we do not have a problem with Jesus receiving the 'genetics' of Mary.1 Corinthians 15:21 - would indicate that all sinned in Adam. Exodus 34:7 - Would also indicate a passing of sin and its penalty from the father to the children. Whose sins are passed on to the next generations? Clearly throughout scripture it is the sins of the fathers. If man or woman were born of a perfect father they would not have a sinful nature. Though they would have human nature from their mother. Christ was born of a perfect Father, the nature of His mother is irrelevant because nowhere in scripture (that I know of) do you find the sinfulness of a woman passed to her offspring. |
