On the Imputation of Adam's First Sin · §498

Man. Post. Cap. IX: PLAC — actual not intra nos; imputation in God

t then pass into all humans no less, or as the Apostle speaks, enter, than corruption? Is Adam's actual sin therefore inside us, no less than corruption? Or can it be inside us, and yet not be in us, not inhere? That imputation is outside us, in God, and was made long before we were: Adam's actual sin also ceased to be some thousands of years before we began to be. How then can it be said to have entered into us, and indeed by that imputation?

Latin

PLAC. Itane non minus in homines omnes transit, seu ut loquitur Apostolus, introiit, quam corruptio? Estne igitur peccatum actuale Adami intra nos, non minus quam corruptio? aut potestne intra nos esse, & tamen nobis non inesse, non inhaerere? Imputatio illa extra nos est, in Deo, diuque antequam essemus, facta: actuale quoque Adami peccatum desiit esse aliquot annorum millibus antequam esse inciperemus. Qui igitur dici potest in nos introiisse, & quidem illa imputatione?
