Original Sin and Depravity (Part 2)

Original Sin & DepravitySteve Gregg
Steve Gregg explores the concept of Total Depravity Doctrine and its implications, particularly the idea of inherited guilt and original sin. He cites Jesus' welcoming of children in the kingdom of God and Spurgeon's scriptural support for baptism as evidence that children are not inherently guilty. Gregg highlights the descriptions of sinfulness and reprobation but argues that being spiritually dead does not mean being born dead, as dead people cannot do anything. He also discusses the differing interpretations of original sin and addresses the absence of clear biblical support for inherited guilt.
