SIN, DEATH AND BEYOND: M.M.NINAN C HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT Since all humanity came out of Adam and Eve, via sexual reproduction, the sin of Adam and Eve were transmitted into every human being as part of their nature. In Augustine's view (termed "Realism"), all of humanity was really present in Adam when he sinned, and therefore all have sinned. Original sin, according to Augustine, consists of the guilt of Adam which all humans inherit. As sinners, humans are utterly depraved in nature, lack the freedom to do good, and cannot respond to the will of God without divine grace. Grace is irresistible, results in conversion, and leads to perseverance. This eventually led to the concept of Predestination. According to Augustine sexual desire itself as well as other bodily passions were consequence of the original sin, in which pure affections were wounded by vice and became disobedient to human reason and will. As long as they carry a threat to the dominion of reason over the soul they constitute moral evil, but since they do not presuppose consent, one cannot call them sins. Humanity will be liberated from passions, and pure affections will be restored only when all sin has been washed away and ended, that is in the resurrection of the dead. Following Augustine, the Catechism of the Catholic Church, 1261 declares: "As regards children who have died without Baptism, the Church can only entrust them to the mercy of God”, as it clearly states in the funeral rites for them. Pelagius ( c. 390-418) on the other hand insisted that the fall of Adam did not make every one of Adamic race depraved and claimed that the influence of Adam on other humans was merely that of bad example. His supporters cite Deuteronomy 24:16 to deny original sin. He denied the more specific doctrine of original sin as developed by Augustine. Pelagius was declared a heretic by the Council of Carthage. His interpretation of a doctrine of free will became known as Pelagianism. He continued to insist on the total freedom of will of man to be able to receive Jesus even as sinners by choice. 43
SIN, DEATH AND BEYOND: M.M.NINAN A 17th century Calvinist print depicting Pelagius. The caption says: "Accurst Pelagius, with what false pretence Durst thou excuse Man's foul Concupiscence, Or cry down Sin Originall, or that The Love of GOD did Man predestinate." Protestant reformation Martin Luther (1483–1546) asserted that humans inherit Adamic guilt and are in a state of sin from the moment of The second article in Lutheranism's Augsburg Confession presents its doctrine of original sin in summary form: “It is also taught among us that since the fall of Adam all men who are born according to the course of nature are conceived and born in sin. That is, all men are full of evil lust and inclinations from their mothers’ wombs and are unable by nature to have true fear of God and true faith in God. Moreover, this inborn sickness and hereditary sin is truly sin and condemns to the eternal wrath of God all those who are not born again through Baptism and the Holy 44
