1) verse 14 speaks of those who "had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression." If every one inherited Adam's sin then everyone would have the sinned after the similitude of Adam. Yet people find themselves condemned for sinning sins DIFFERENT from Adam, hence sin is committed not inherited.
"POINT TO NOTE: Since these people died as a result of their own sin and it wasn't like Adam"s, then they surely didn't die from Adam's sin. The distinction between theirs and Adam's would be non-existent if they had died because of Adam"s sin. People die because of their own sins. (Colossians 2:13; Ephesians 2:1)." Dunagan's Commentary (my emp)
2) my point still stands that one is not sinner until he sins as Adam was not a transgressor until AFTER he transgressed.
No. People die in sin because they fail to know The Father and the purpose and plan...in revealing the Son and what we become when IN Christ...people who do not become blind in order that they might "see" that plan and purpose God had before the foundation of the world were laid...and it all goes back to Adam in the garden...One became two, now two become ONE in Christ/The Door (back).
John 9:41 Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.
