Council of Trent (13 December, 1545 - 4 December, 1563
)
If anyone does not confess that the
first man, Adam, when he transgressed
the commandment of God in paradise,
immediately lost the holiness and
justice in which he had been
constituted, and through the offense of that
prevarication incurred the wrath and
indignation of God, and thus death
with which God had previously
threatened him, and, together with death,
captivity under his power who
thenceforth had the empire of death, that is
to say, the devil, and that the entire
Adam through that offense of
prevarication was changed in body and
soul for the worse, let
him be
anathema.
