was finally used by God to bring light and truth to the church, where before there had been darkness, superstition, and error.
Part Three: Implications of a False Doctrine Chapter Seven: 13 Reasons why the Doctrine of Original sin is False Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it. Deut. 4:2 If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book. Rev. 22:18 The doctrine of original sin is false because: 1. It makes sin a misfortune and a calamity rather than a crime. 2. It makes the sinner deserve pity and compassion rather than blame for his sins. 3. It excuses the sinner. 4. It makes God responsible for sin. 5. It dishonors God. It makes him arbitrary, cruel, and unjust. 6. It causes ministers to wink at and excuse sin. 7. It begets complacency and a low standard of religion among Christians. 8. It is a stumbling-block to the unsaved. 9. It makes Jesus a sinner or it must deny his humanity. 10. It contradicts the Bible. 11. It "adds to" and "takes from" the Bible. God warns against this in Deut. 4:2 and Rev. 22:18, 19. 12. It begets false doctrines and false interpretations of the Scriptures. 13. It is ridiculous, absurd, and unreasonable. It contradicts the necessary and irresistible affirmations of every man's consciousness and reason, which is something that no true doctrine of the Word of God could do. Now let us look more fully at each of these points. 1. It makes sin a misfortune and a calamity rather than a crime.
