What is Sin?

(Copyright ©1truth1law.com 2008-2011)

The early church taught that whatever is not in accordance with righteous conduct (Ps. 119:172) is contrary to God’s will (Rom. 6:16). The apostle Paul tells us, “whatever is not of faith is sin” (Rom. 14:23) and since loving God requires faith in Him, which is defined by trusting what He says in His written word, we strive to obey His law (Heb. 11:1; 1Jn. 5:3). All of humanity falls short and sins (Rom. 3:23; 1Jn. 1:10; 2:4) because carnal human nature is rebellious towards God and is not willing to subject itself to His law (Rom. 8:7-8). Therefore the early church understood and taught that all sin is transgression of the law (1Jn. 3:4).
