I agree. I’m not certain which article you are referencing. The most recent post concerning the Salvation Army and inherited sin was,\u00a0“You make no attempt to understand the Salvation Army.”<\/a>\u00a0In that article are references to numerous documents outlining from the Scriptures why certain beliefs are not biblical, showing Scriptures to support the points. I gave:<\/p>\n Each article is filled with Scriptural references. So far, you have given me your opinion without the backing of God (I Peter 4:11). You claim I’m wrong, but you haven’t shown it to be so. I’m willing to address the points you may raise, but the discussion needs to be from the Bible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Question: Please go back to the Bible.\u00a0 What you say in this article is not in any way biblical and so is misleading.\u00a0 Sin is inherited.\u00a0 All are born sinful.\u00a0 The Holy Spirit is the way our hearts are opened to God.\u00a0 And I am not Salvation Army – simply an evangelical Anglican.\u00a0 We must…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_seo_schema_type":"","footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[20],"tags":[656,1196],"class_list":["post-23131","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-answer","tag-anglican-church","tag-inherited-sins"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":50562,"url":"https:\/\/www.lavistachurchofchrist.org\/cms\/so-there-is-not-a-sin-gene\/","url_meta":{"origin":23131,"position":0},"title":"So there is not a sin gene?","author":"Jeffrey Hamilton","date":"June 5, 2020","format":false,"excerpt":"Question: Dear Jeffrey, Can you, if you get the chance, please confirm my understanding from one of your sermons\u00a0Infant Baptism?
