"man is a sinner because we are born in to it"--This person is correct in the sense that each man is born with sin. Unfortunately Adam and Eve lost perfection after having disobeyed God in the Garden of Eden. How do we know everyone is born with sin without exception? The Bible tells us in the book of Romans chapter 5 verse 12, which states, "That is why, just as through one man sin entered into the world and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men because they had all sinned." Not only does this text explain why we all must grow old and die in this system of things, but it also explains why we all are born with sin. But each on of us has a hope of being forgiven of sin and one day living in a paradise here on earth. In the same book of Romans but at 3:23-24, which reads, "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of Go, and it is as a free gift that they are being declared righteous by his undeserved kindness through the release by the ransom paid by Christ Jesus." So here we see that Jesus' death has opened the doorway for mankind to be forgiven and declared righteous, even though we are all born sinners. For more information on this topic chapter 5 and chapter 6 paragraph 14 of "What Does the Bible Really Teach" book, published by Jehovah's Witnesses has more supporting scriptures.

How does sin separate man from God?

God loves human being and He loves sinners. But God hates sins. Through our sins, sins act as a barrier between God and us. Human being fall sort of the Glory of God due to the sins. The wages of sins is eternal death. We cannot go to Heaven as we are sinners, Jesus came to restore the loss relationship and breaks the barrier between God and Human at the Cross of Calvary.


In Luke's gospel the paralyzed man why were the religious leaders so offended?

What did it mean that Jesus was made to be sin for us?

Jesus the Christ was the Son of God and therefore sinless. He did not sin.... ever. But in order to died for the sins of mankind while He was on the cross of Calvary all the sins of mankind was turned over to Him. He had to take our sins into His body and die. They were not His sins they were our sins but he took them upon Himself and died in our place. This is why when we accept Jesus as our Savior our sins are gone because He took them at Calvary. We as Christians will never be judged for our sin as Jesus took care of them when he was sacrificed for them. The agony of Crucifixion was a terrible death, but can you imagine the extra agony that Jesus had, being a sinless person taking all the sin of mankind upon Himself. Only Jesus could have done this.
