All humans are spiritually dead in their trespasses and sins. This death is inherited through their fathers, not their mothers. This does not mean that mothers are not also dead in their sins, but as far as the human race is concerned, this sinful “nature” is passed on through the father to the sons and daughters. All humans are not only condemned due to Adam’s sin, but all humans are also sinners by their own thoughts, deeds and actions.
Is there anyone who has not had a human father? Only Jesus Christ, the Son of God, born to the Virgin Mary, has NOT inherited the sinful nature of Adam. Christ is the only one who is righteous from eternity past to eternity future. Because of His righteousness, He is the only one who could pay for the sins of His elect people. He accomplished this by His atonement work at His first coming in 30ad; and also, at His consummation of salvation at His second coming Parousia in 66-70ad.
All Israel are sinners:
“Yes, all Israel has TRANSGRESSED YOUR LAW, and has departed so as not to obey Your voice; therefore, the curse and the oath written in the Law of Moses the servant of God have been poured out on us, BEAUSE WE HAVE SINNED against Him.”- Dan 9:11
All People throughout human history are sinners:
“As it is written: “THERE IS NONE RIGHTEOUS, NO NOT ONE; there is NONE who understands; there is NONE who seeks after God. They have ALL turned aside; they have together become unprofitable; there is NONE who does good, NO, NOT ONE.” -Rom 3:10-12
All humans sin and are born sinners due to Adam’s sin:
“For if by the one man’s sin (Adam) sin entered the world, and DEATH THROUGH SIN, and thus death spread to all men, BEACUSE ALL SINNED,” -Rom 5:12
All of God’s elect are made righteous in Christ:
“For if by the one man’s sin (Adam’s) offense DEATH reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness will reign in LIFE through One, Jesus Christ. Therefore, as through one man’s (Adam’s) offense JUDGEMENT CAME TO ALL MEN (In Adam by birth), RESULTING IN CONDEMNATION, even so through one man’s (Christ’s) righteousness act the free gift came to all men (all those in Christ by faith), RESULTING IN JUSTIFICATION OF LIFE. For as by one man’s (Adam’s) man’s DISOBEDIENCE many (fall but Christ) were made sinners, so also by one Man’s (Christ’s) OBEDIENCE many (the elect) will be made RIGHTEOUS.” – Rom 5:17-19.
Death, judgement, and condemnation came to all men through Adam’s sin and their own sin. However, grace, life, justification, and righteousness came to those who received grace from God and eternal life through Jesus Christ.

Isn’t it great to Know that we are no longer under the original sin of Adam because of what Christ did for us to RECIEVE HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS!
I do not believe we are under the curses of Adam since the crucifixion. I truly believe Christ won us all back (I also DO NOT BELIEVE IN SATAN) For Christ WON IT ALL BACK AT CALVARY! We are not held accountable to our past generational sins or curses of our ancestors. We are NOT held accountable for the sins of Adam either. We are not tempted or overtaken by some “satan” to sin either. We are Now only tempted by our own desires.
But each one is tempted when he is dragged away, enticed and baited [to commit sin] by his own [worldly] desire (lust, passion).- James 1:14
For those of us In Jesus Christ through faith in HIS grace are made righteous! We are properly clothed in HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS! There is no other way to be RIGHTEOUS BUT TO BE CLOTHED IN CHRIST!
All my clothed in HIS RIGTHEOUSNESS, ❤ Diana xo 🙂
Clothed in His Righteousness
In the tapestry of grace, we find our place, A garment spun from threads divine. Not woven by mortal hands, but by love’s embrace, A robe of righteousness, forever thine.
The fabric whispers stories of redemption, Each stitch a promise, each fold a plea. It drapes across our brokenness, a sweet exemption, A covering that sets our weary souls free.
The warp and weft of mercy intertwine, Golden strands of forgiveness, soft and true. The hem bears scars, a testament to love’s design, Where grace and justice meet, forever new.
So wear it well, this robe of heaven’s making, For it was fashioned in the courts above. Clothed in His righteousness, our hearts awaking, We walk in light, wrapped in eternal love. 🌟
