I'm back after a few rough days. I gotta go see the brain doctor Monday, but I don't know why. What little I have left stays turned off most of the time. All things aside, my blood sodium level is staying low, and we will most likely have to change seizure medication. The last time that we went through this, Mama told him that she was going to send me to live with him. Please pray for us, especially Mama.

I'll be praying for you both Billy. That's a promise

Was Satan (opposer of God) the first self-conscious entity to sin?

[kedge]

I don't know what do you think?

I think the Bible is telling me that Satan is the first to transgress God's laws but i'm no Bible expert, i was just wondering what others think?.

First let me say Welcome to CC and to the Speak Your Mind thread. A friend request has been sent your way. As to your original question....

According to how I read the Bible there was an issue in heaven where Lucifer wanted to be equal to or higher than God. His pride got in the way and he questioned God's character. He was thrown out of heaven and far as I can tell took about 1/3 of the angels with him....So he must have been pretty persuasive.

I think that this is a pretty deep subject for this thread, but I'll answer it anyway.

What Satan did or didn't do has nothing to do with man's original sin. The most important lesson that that we can take from man's disobedience in the Garden of Eden (the first sin as we know it), is just how easily man will give up paradise for the promise of something better.

And this...

 

[kedge]

man's original sin.

But exactly what is sin as mentioned in the Holy Bible?, i can understand a transgression of God's law by the simple comparison of a road traffic offense, like speeding 50 in a 30 zone, you transgress a law you knew you pay the price. But what exactly is to be brought forth in iniquity?, is it genetic or is it trait.

Psalm 51:5

Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me.



Jesus Christ was brought forth into this world by a sinner, i know he was not a descendant of adam but how is it he is without sin?
