All of humanity has the sin of Adam on them from their mothers womb. This sin is the result of the knowledge of good and evil that has been passed down through generations. David said, in sin my mother conceived me. Psalm 51:5 David is speaking about this sin. When Adam acquired the knowledge of good and evil he lacked the ability to always do good and never do evil, of course this is impossible, David would sin and these sins would be his own. So when it comes to Adams sin we are all born that way but our own personal sins are ours alone. No one is a born murderer , rapist, thief, idol worshipper, adulterer or any other sin, we become sinners on our own with Satans help because we lust or covet in our human spirit to use our bodies to act out the lust in our spirit. We all have a defiled human spirit and we all sin in this manner. James 1:13-15 1 John 1:8 Even the saints with the Holy Spirit still sin that’s why we need grace. Unlike the sin of Adam our own sins are not somehow programmed into us by God. There are certain people who say they are born that way, this as shown is not true, they try to justify themselves by denying themselves by saying their sin is from Adam when it is theirs alone. Of all sins common to men no one sin is greater than another as all have the same punishment. The saints understand these things and willingly participate in the gospel message of repentance and asking forgiveness to keep their garments without spot or wrinkle. Lust is not of God, love is of God and love conquers lust. Whatever is not of Gods love is sin.
