What is your basis for this assumption, John? Consider the following passage: Ezekiel 28:15 (15) Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee. Do you think the angels that sinned also were created with a sin nature? >From my perspective, Adam & Eve did NOT have a sinful nature as part of their constituency. It was the defiling nature of sin, and the selfish nature of a genetic evolutionary force, which has produced the sin nature that we observe in man today.
