Is The Doctrine Of "Original Sin" Really Scriptural?

Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Sep 5, 2002

Many today accept the doctrine of "Original Sin" or "Total Hereditary Depravity" as basic truth; yet, it is not supported by the Bible nor was it taught in the early Church.

The doctrine of "Original Sin" basically states that Adam’s guilt has been passed down to each member of the human race. Thus, we are born condemned sinners. We are separated from God and His grace from birth. We are born spiritually dead. Only the blood of Christ can remove the stain and guilt of ...read more

The Sin God Hates Most Of All

Contributed by Jonathan Mcleod on Jul 19, 2001

Sowing discord among the bretheren is the sin God hates most of all;is caused by pride; and is seen in the church at Corinth.

Every person has their own weaknesses and faults; and since a church is made up of imperfect people, every church will have problems. The church at ...read more
