The great Christian doctrine of original sin defended

The Doctrine of original Sin is not only here taught, but most plainly, explicitly and abundantly taught. This Doctrine is asserted, expressly or implicitly, in almost every Verse; and in some of the Verses several Times. 'Tis fully implied in that first Expression in the 12th v. By one Man Sin entered into the World. Which implies, that Sin became universal in the World; as the Apostle had before largely shown it was; and not merely (which would be a trifling insignificant Observation) that one Man, who was made first, sinned first, before other Men sinned; or, that it did not so happen that many Men began to sin just together at the same Moment.—The latter Part of the Verse, And Death by Sin, and so Death passed upon all Men, for that (or, if you will, unto which) all have sinned, shows, that in the Eye of the Judge of the World, in Adam's first Sin, all sinned; not only in some Sort, but all sinned so as to be exposed to that Death, and final Destruction, which is the proper Wages of Sin.—The same Doctrine is taught again twice over in the 14th v. It is there observed, as a Proof of this Doctrine, that Death reigned over them which had not sinned after the Similitude of Adam's Transgression, i. e. by their personal Act; and therefore could be exposed to Death, only by deriving Guilt and Pollution from Adam, in Consequence of his Sin. And 'tis taught again, in those Words, Who is the Figure of him that was to come. The Resemblance lies very much in this Circumstance, viz. our deriving Sin, Guilt and Punishment by Adam's Sin, as we do Righteousness, Justification, and the Reward of Life by Christ's Obedience: for so the Apostle explains himself.—The same Doctrine is expressly taught again, v 1•th. ⟨p. 286⟩Through the Offence of one many be dead. And again, twice in the 16th v. It was by one that sinned, i. e. It was by Adam that Guilt and Punishment (before spoken of) came on Mankind: And in these Words, Judgment was by one to Condemnation.—It is again plainly and fully laid down in the 17th v. By one Man's Offence, Death reigned by one. So again in the 18th v. By the Offence of one, Judgment came upon all Men to Condemnation.—Again, very plainly in the 19th v. By one Man's Disobedience, many were made Sinners.
