"The Sinful Nature"?



"Eusebuis held that men were sinners by their own free choice and not by the necessity of their natures... Everything is good which is according to nature... But when a man acts wrongly, nature is not to be blamed: for what is wrong takes place not according to nature, but contrary to nature, it being the work of choice, and not of nature…” and "the Creator of all things has impressed a NATURAL LAW upon the soul of every man, an assistant and ally in his conduct, pointing him to the right way..." (italics my emphasis, The Christian Examiner, Volume One, published by, James Miller, 1824 Edition, p. 66). 


The choice to stay on the Path is the only right “choice” and “free” choice.


James 1: 14-16 (KJV):

but the every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death. Do not err, my beloved brethren.

See "Natural Law" (June 30/19).

*Note: "God saw all that he made, and it was very good..." (Genesis 1:31 NIV).
