Abraham 1.4:Abraham wasn’t born again
 
 


 Abraham is the father of all those who exercise FAITH (in other words, believe in God )
Paul, the writer of great chunks of the New Testament, said that Abraham is the father of all those who believe in God. Not just the Jews who claim some of his DNA, but also the non-Jews (gentiles). You can read that in chapter 4 verse 11 of his letter to the Roman church.
Abraham, the father of all those who believe in God, never read the bible (it had not been written when he was alive). 

Abraham never went near a church. 

But God considered him to be righteous. God said so to his son, Isaac. You can read that in Genesis 26:6.

Abraham obeyed me and did everything I required of him, keeping my commands, my decrees and my instructions. 

Ever since it was established, the church has peddled a doctrine of original sin. 

You could sum that up by saying you are born evil, and it is just the death and resurrection of Jesus that can cure you of this affliction. 

The church likes to create the impression that it is the sole agent for the product they call “redemption”, that can overcome the power of this original sin and make people acceptable to God.
Abraham seems to have been born, and continued all his life in a state of righteousness. No original sin seems to have separated him from God.
In fact God seems to have approved of the behaviour (and state of righteousness of quite a few people in the bible. 
Abraham obeyed me and did everything I required of him, keeping my commands, my decrees and my instructions.

God spoke to Moses, face to face, as a man would to a friend  (Deuteronomy 34:10).

Since then, no prophet has risen in Israel like Moses, whom the LORD knew face to face, 

God said David was a man after his own heart (1 Samuel 13:14) 
the LORD has sought out a man after his own heart and appointed him ruler of his people,
who walked in his ways (1 Kings 11:4, 33)
done what is right in my eyes, kept my decrees and laws as David, Solomon’s father, did
All of these people did some bad things (you can read about them in the bible), but God did not seem to object to the original sin into which they were born (according to church doctrine)

So what is it?
Original Sin and you cannot be righteous unless you know about Jesus and his Holy Spirit?
Or Innate Innocence, which you have to choose to relinquish?

In chapters 1 and 2 of Romans, Paul suggests that mankind at any time in history, should be able to envisage the existence of a just and merciful God by contemplating nature
Since the creation of the world, God's invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made - Romans 1:20).

We could call such a man a righteous gentile, or a noble savage. 

It could describe people such as Abraham. 
To Paul, the humans, whatever the religious practices of their societies’ are capable of making moral decisions...
by persisting in doing good (Romans 2:6-7). In such ways they can prove that the Law of God is written on their hearts and minds
... just as easily as people who have read the bible or gone to church, or at least those who persist in doing good as part of their commitment to the dictates of their conscience. 
When Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature things required by the law, they are a law for themselves, even though they do not have the law, since they show that the requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts now accusing, now even defending them..Romans 2:14-15)
Abraham,  ancestor of all Jews, started out as a Gentile who had never heard about Jesus, redemption, Moses or atonement, but he had God’s Law written on his heart. 

And how did it get to be written there? 

I am backing that much neglected concept presented in the bible – ATONEMENT. More on that, (much more) later on.
