Even the obviously UGLY new born baby is beautiful. The head can be distorted as a used prada handbags result of coming through the birth canal. Red smudges may show themselves for used prada handbags the same reasons. There can be no hair, too much hair, you used prada handbags name it. That the child has arrived and is healthy is used prada handbags all that matters. What a beautiful baby! Praises to God for such a miracle of life. Original sin? Give me a break!
One of my favorite ex-communicated Catholic priests is Matthew Fox, not to be confused with Quaker, George Fox, or mystic, Emmet Fox. Matthew said, “We enter a broken and torn and sinful world- that’s for used prada handbags sure. But we do not enter as blotches on existence, as sinful creatures, we burst into the used prada handbags world as “original blessings“.
His book that was entitled Original Blessing got him the ax by Ratzinger, who is now the Pope!
I just finished reading a most remarkable book by Herbert Haag (Is Original Sin In Scriptures). Of his many arguments against such a used prada handbags concept is this quote on page 107, “No man enters the used prada handbags world a sinner. As the creature and image of God he is used prada handbags from his first hour surrounded by God’s fatherly love.”
That’s GOOD NEWS!
We are NOT the used prada handbags object of the wrath of God. We never have been used prada handbags and certainly are not at birth. We are the object of God’s love, mercy, grace, and used prada handbags forgiveness. A man becomes a sinner only through his own individual actions.
I don’t need an “original sin” concept strapped to my birth to know why SIN is in the world. The world is corrupt. Duh! Man has used prada handbags the choice to sin or not, and the pressures to do so are used prada handbags great!
Original sin or “hereditary sin” is used prada handbags not supportable by either Genesis 1-3 or Romans 5, but we strain at gnats, or used prada handbags at least St. Augustine did and handed us the baton of a used prada handbags hole we have to dig ourselves out of by all kinds of religious rules.
For me, we’re all are born beautiful. But it doesn’t take long after that used prada handbags to mess things up. Hey, after all, we are humans and used prada handbags this is the third dimension, not the fourth. What do you expect?
God’s grace through Jesus, that’s what I expect!
