From: "Blaine Borrowman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Blaine: I started this, I think--Judy seems to be having a difficult time accepting that there is a difference between the potential for sin and accomplished sin. Jesus had the potential for sin--otherwise the devil would not have taken him up on the high mtn to tempt him. Jesus did not succomb, either then or ever afterwards--or before, however..
Judy: Do you believe in the fall of the first Adam Blaine? Do you believe that every generation from then on is born with a fallen sin nature? Is this the potential for sin you are talking about?
