Are We Born in Sin? (Calvinism Part 2)

Psalm 51Romans 5:18-19Ezekiel 18:4-9

About this sermon

Are we born in sin? Total depravity is defined first from Webster and then from the reformed and Presbyterian confessions of faith — including the line about infants infected in their mothers' wombs — and then tested against Psalm 51 and Romans 5. Nick Greenman's sharpest objection is Jesus himself: fully human, yet sinless. The study ends where Ezekiel 18 does, with the soul that sins being the soul that dies.

Chris Kramer of the Northside church of Christ is joined by Nick Greenman of the Memorial Blvd. church of Christ in Springfield, TN.
