Age of accountability

I'll try to find it, but I recall Allan posting a very good defense for this doctrine. Meanwhile, I will say, that some might argue the doctrine of the "Trinity" is not really taught in scripture either because the word itself doesn't appear and it is the result of the systematization of many various texts. So, I'm not sure those are grounds on which to dismiss any particular doctrine out of hand...

 

Here is that link for Allan's post>>>

 

Here he specifically addresses your question:

And he goes on to lay those verses out...

 

realise that ALL are sinners, whio were born in state /condition that would cause God to condemn them BUT

God is able to 'forbade" the sins of those who are either challenged mentally, or else children nut responsible for their sins yet, as not able to understand that concept yet mentally...

No specific age, just whenever the person knows that God is there, and they have indded sinned before God and nopw guilty before Him...

 

You have been shown that there is no specific, cookie cutter age for each individual. You just don't like that answer.

God did set an age of accountability for the Israelites to enter the promised land, it was under 19.

 

ALL of us are accountible to God , its just that there is not set date/age, as once we realise that God is there, and that we are sinners before God, we are now accountible to Him...

 

The word of God does not teach age of accountability.

It teaches that which is born of the flesh is flesh. That is inclusive of all
who are born.

They must be born again.

And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS. This is he that came by water and blood, Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood.(Virgin birth) And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that [spirit] of antichrist,

Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. Blood Only be sure that thou eat not the blood: for the blood [is] the life; and thou mayest not eat the life with the flesh. For the blood [is] the life, nephesh, soul. The living soul is in the blood. That is how it is said of the Christ that he poured out his soul unto death.

Who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have. No blood, he has been born of the spirit and his life (soul) is no longer in the blood.
Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses. But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you. And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, [now] no more to return to corruption,

He was raised, both soul and flesh and bones no more to return to corruption.

Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.

that in all he might have the preeminence.

 

yes, as they would have the knowledge from general Creation that there is a God, and that they were sinners, even if they surpress this truth, are aware and guilty of it before God!

 

The converse can be said of you position as well, as the Bible supports an age of accountability and you deny it, which is adding to Scripture

 

There is no "age of accountability--no magical age when everyone suddenly becomes enlightened and able to realize that they need Christ. That time is different with everyone, although God knows when each of us is able to understand and therefore able to be held accountable. Children know at a very young age when they've done wrong and learn to lie at a very young age. A 2-year-old breaks a lamp and blames it on the dog. He knows he's done wrong and lies about it. However, can he really understand the concept of being eternally lost in his sins and in need of a Saviour?
