As far as we know this state only existed once, and that for a very brief period, in Adam and Eve, before the fall. It is a purely negative state, that of knowing no evil. No Christian is innocent; on the contrary, he is holy, that is, refuses the evil (which he knows), and chooses the good. The Lord was not innocent, “that holy child Jesus.” It need hardly be said that babes “born in sin” are not innocent. As soon as they know anything they know right and wrong. The Christian state is far higher than that of Adam in innocence.
