6.1 Even the first and original human sin has a purpose for God’s Glory.
6.2 Because of this sin Adam and Eve lost their original righteousness and communion with God, became dead in sin, and wholly defiled in every part of soul and body.
6.3 Because they were the parents of all humanity, the guilt of this sin was imputed and corruption of nature passed down, with the death in sin, to all descended from them by ordinary generation.
6.4 From this original corruption, which has been passed down to us, comes all our actual transgressions.
6.5 This inherited corruption remains even in the regenerated in this life, and though it is pardoned and mortified in our union with Christ, it is still sin.
6.6 Every sin, both original and actual, entails guilt and deserves judgment.
