I was reading an article online about children needing to be taught to be good...and that's a sign of Original Sin.

Thoughts?

Good day,

The classic is when your 4 year old lies.... I assume people do not teach their kids to lie it is part of their nature.

Yes, that's so true! Some people might say the kids are following the parents' examples because they've heard them lie, but that's not always true.

Good day, LL

The best way to correct those that deny original sin... is to steal their wallet. :ROFLMAO:

Yes, babies are born self-centered, which is my definition of sin. They demand that their needs be met. One example is when one of our children was a baby, he would cry when he was put to bed, even though his needs were all met. He would quiet down and then cry again to see if we would come and pick him up so that he wouldn't have to be in bed. That's a baby's self-centeredness.

In watching DJT since the assassination attempt, I have detected a mellowing, perhaps humbling in him. Perhaps, God is working in his life.

God is working in all Christians. That's what's so glorious!

Yes, but I can't tell absolutely who is a real Christian and who isn't, because so many Christians that I've met have proved to be false believers.

We can only go by profession of faith.

Only God -Jesus- can judge whether someone is genuinely Christian or not, but we can judge their words and actions against those taught in the Bible so that we are not deceived by those who call themselves Christian but are not.

We must always remember that we are in the age of deceit, as we were warned about in prophecy (Matthew 24:4).

You are correct about the necessity to look to the Bible for our only source of the truth, but we also need to avoid false interpretations that our minds concoct and impose on the Bible texts.

Yes, that's one of the deceits we need to be especially aware of.
