Did we all inherit sin from Adam and Eve?
My Bible tells me that God cursed the earth with Adam and Eve’s sin, being equivalent to substitution. Also that all of the subsequent sins done by mankind were also attributed to be done by the earth, thus the reason for the flood of Noah’s time which killed off the sinners, that were burdening the earth spiritually with their sins.
