| Posted 9/11/2007 7:40 PM (GMT -6) |   | Who is the cause of all sin and what is the source of all sin?
Is God the cause of sin and is His Sovereignty the source?
Is the Devil the cause of sin and his lies the source?
Is Adam the cause of sin and the loss of freewill the source?
Or each sinner the cause of their own sin and the wrong use of freewill is the source?
My answer is:
Each sinner is the cause of their own sin & the source of sin is a wrong use of freewill.
LUCIFER ORIGINATED HIS OWN EVIL BY A WRONG USE OF HIS WILL:
"For thou hast said in thine heart, I WILL ascend into heaven, I WILL exalt my throne above the stars of God: I WILL sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I WILL ascend above the heights of the clouds; I WILL be like the most High." Isa 14:13-14
SINNERS ORIGINATE THEIR OWN REBELLION BY A WRONG USE OF THEIR WILL:
"But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We WILL NOT have this man to REIGN over us." Luke 19:24
"But those mine enemies, which WOULD NOT that I should REIGN over them, bring hither, and slay them before me." Luke 19:27
SIN IS REBELLION AGAINST THE SOVEREIGN GOD:
"they REBELLED against the words of God, and contemned the COUNSEL of the most high." Ps 107:11
"But the Pharisees and lawyers REJECTED the COUNSEL of God against themselves, being not baptized of him." Luke 7:30
"O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, which killest the prophets, and stonest them that are sent unto thee; how often WOULD I have gathered thy children together, as a hen doth gather her brood under her wings, and ye WOULD NOT!" Luke 13:34
Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always RESIST THE HOLY GHOST: as your fathers did, so do ye." Acts 7:51
