truthseeker,
Okay, how about continuous sinful acts since he just doesn’t quit?
His nature can still simply be his human nature. After all, at some point, he did his first sinful act, and so it would have to be said that this first sinful act came out of what-his sinful nature or his human nature?
I’d say that his first sinful act was made out of choice.
If we conclude however, that God only created Adam (and Eve) with a human nature, then we have to conclude that it is possible to choose to sin without having a sinful nature-that indeed, all we need to sin is a human nature and some free will.
Adam chose to sin when he did not have a sinful nature. But his continuing in rebellion is what makes me use words like “sin nature” because it is what he continued to do – rebel. First he eats, then he blames, then he won’t leave the garden, (has to get forced out literally) etc.
But with Eve I cannot find her continuously in anything (like deception) or continuously doing something (like rebelling).
