Jn 3:18
18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
Its thought in mans religion today that unbelief is the cause of condemnation, however its not, but its the symptom, outcome, and evidence that one is already condemned, not by unbelief but by the law of God.
Mans condemnation came upon him not by his unbelief in Christ, but by his uniformity with adam when he disobeyed Gods Law, Rom 5:18
Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.
Did Adam disobey Gods Law ? Most definitly, no it wasnt the mosaic law but Gods moral law. Many will tell us that the law of God didnt exist at the beginning of creation, but thats ignorance and error, because the scripture is clear that Adam transgressed Rom 5:14
14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.
And sin is defined as 1 Jn 3:4
Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
If there had been no law adam couldnt had sinned because the strength of sin is the Law 1 Cor 15:56
The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.
And had there been no law for adam and man in him, consequently there had been no transgression Rom 5:12-14
12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:
13 (For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law.
14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.
Common sense would have us to realize that a law was transgressed since death had its reign up to the time of moses, when the mosaic law was instituted
So if folk say there was no law of God and man wasnt under law before moses, they are in darkness.
