Eating Sprinkles Shows Original Sin
For those who deny Original Sin - and claim that children are innocent until some dreamed up "age of accountability" - get a load of this. A young lad denies his obvious eating of sprinkles even though the evidence is clearly "sprinkled" all over his face. Don't tell me these little guys (and gals) are innocent until proven sinful!
But there is hope. Check out Acts 2:38-39:
“Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.For the promise is for you and for your children and for all who are far off, everyone whom the Lord our God calls to himself.”
8 Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the Lord God among the trees of the garden. 9 But the Lord God called to the man, “Where are you?”
10 He answered, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid.”
11 And he said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?”
