Abstract
The old Adam is a thoroughgoing perfectionist. He is able to see that human nature is depraved, though, of course, the depth and extent of human depravity can only be learned from Scripture, and yet in his proud conceit he maintains that he is master of his evil inclinations. The old Adam sees sin and the horrible consequences of sin on all aides; yet in his carnal security he believes that he has "perfectly," i. e., "according to his knowledge and ability," met the demands of the supremo Lawgiver.
