I just had a strange experience in Hemet. I have been attending a prayer meeting on Fridays with a local church. One of the men confessed a struggle with lust and blamed it on an evil spirit. I said that the Bible says in 2 Peter 1:2 that we have escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. I told the men blaming evil spirits is just an excuse and so is blaming the sin nature. The leader of the meeting jumped up and started shouting in my face and kicked me out of the meeting.
He was saying the church believed in the sin nature inherited from Adam and I had better shut up and retract what I said. I told him I could only speak the truth. Catholics believe in the sin nature, too but they do not believe it stays in the Christian. They say that infant baptism removes it. That is much better than the Evangelical heresy that says we are in bondage to sin and can't get free. People use the sin nature as an excuse to continue in sin.
