Man • Genesis 1:31 – Everything that He had made • Made = aw-saw’ – to make, made • Does not say ‘Good’ in v1:27 • Made in the image of God • ‘Our’ image • Father, Son, Holy Spirit • Like no other created thing

Our Nature comes from the Beginning of Creation which came about with God speaking us into existence. When God created us in His image He said “It was Very Good”. The genetic nature of man was set up for perpetual motion. After the beginning of creation Adam sinned. This did not change the way he was created.
Original Sin • 2 major opposing positions • Adam made us sinners (changed our nature) • Adam brought sin into the world • Does it really matter? • Are they both true? • Are there consequences for believing a lie?
Ecclesiastes 7:29 “Truly, this only I have found: That God made man upright, But they have sought after many schemes”
Ecclesiastes 7:29 “Truly, this only I have found: That God aw-saw’* man upright, But they have sought after many schemes” *Same word as Genesis 1:31
Genesis 1:31 “God saw everything that He made, and indeed it was very good. So the evening and the morning were the sixth day”
Genesis 1:31 “God saw everything that He aw-saw’, and indeed it was very good. So the evening and the morning were the sixth day”
If man’s ‘Nature’ is evil? • What part of the Godhead’s likeness was he made in? • When after the creation did God ‘change’ man’s nature? • Where is the documented Bible verse?
Consequences • You are not to blame for your sins • You have no need of repentance • You do not need to Do anything for your salvation • You do not need to submit to baptism • The preaching of the Gospel is in vain • Belief, Repentance, Obedience to Gospel

We should not make the mistake of thinking that the Catholic Church came up with the idea of “Original Sin”, but rather see that the departure from the truth by those “In the Kingdom of God” led to false teaching which in turn led to the Catholic Church.
