Based on Ezekiel 14 & 33)

Sin began with Adam and Eve,

But we each account for our own.

When deeds are judged, whether good or bad,

I shall reap only what I have sown.

The soul who sees his father’s sins,

But chooses not to repeat them,

Will not have to die for his father’s sins;

God above will judge only him.

If a good and righteous man,

Does what is just and right,

He will live eternally,

When favor is found in God’s sight.

But if in time a man becomes wicked,

His good deeds will not be remembered.

He will fall from grace and then,

From Christ’s body will be dismembered.

The righteous God will give credit,

And He’ll charge the wicked man.

But if the wicked man turns from sin,

God forgives, as only He can.

Adam’s sin doesn’t make us sinners,

For if that concept is true,

Because Christ was sinless makes us,

Automatically sinless, too.
