Q.-   Is it fair that we pay for Adam´s sin?  

A.
   Life teaches us that we all share a common fate for some events in life.

E.g, Insurance costs. Individually you may not be a risk or a drinker, but you carry part of the cost as a member of the society and driving public.
You may have nothing to do with the high cost of gasoline, but as part of the consuming public, you pay the higher price.
When there is war in any country, all people suffer: both the good and bad, As being part of the human family, we therefore carry the burden of Adam’s sin.

Hear what the bible says… and so sin passed upon all men; because all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.
But the antidote or payment for sin is equally available to all.
Once again the justice of God prevails, and only as we choose to reject his offer of salvation will we eventually pay the ultimate price for sin.

So the focus is not on Adam, but on Jesus Christ, and how we choose to respond to the generous salvation that He so freely offers to all.

We remind you to search the scriptures like those noble Berean Christians in Acts 17:11 - "  to see if these things be so. "
