Thanks for your review of this book. As far as I'm concerned, Doug Wilson has been on the scrap heep of "theologians" for several years because of issues such as this. Butchered hermanuetics never serve the body of Christ and it amazes me that "covenanters" seem to discard sound principals when discussing pet issues. May the Lord have mercy on our ignorance.

This book is awesome. Wilson is right on the mark as usual.

While reading through the Epistle to the Romans I came across this:

"The wages of sin is death" (Romans 6:23)

The fact that children die shows that they are subject to the consequences of sin just like adults. If children are not held responsible by God for the Original Sin inherited from their Grandfather Adam, they would never die until they reach an Age of Accountability, when "their eyes are opened to the knowledge of Good and Evil".

But the Bible never mentions an age of accountability. Instead, it teaches that "the whole world (is) held accountable to God" (Romans 3:19), Psalms 51:5, Eph. 2:3.

Just because something doesn't seem fair, doesn't mean it is not true. As Paul says in Romans, who are we the created to question the Creator.

All human beings, including infants, are born sinners and are in need of a Savior to redeem them from original sin and the penalty of that sin: death...both physical and spiritual.
