Sin does not mean missing the mark. Sin is to miss aim, although our miss aiming means we miss the mark sin does not mean missing the mark.

Cause and effect.

It never ceases to amaze me how these men use scriptural words, but have no idea what the words mean.

I'd love to have a talk with this guy about the meaning of the word God.

@Imaginefree69 The Law has everything to do with you, if you have been fooled to think you can break God's Law and still be saved, then you will be subject to His Wrath. The Law is not gone Luke 16:17, You are responsible for your deeds 2Corin5:10, Romans 2:6-13. You also have taken Romans 4:15 out of context badly, there was no law before Moses, this is not speaking of Now.

@gmapostol Rev 21:7, 8 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; & I will be His God & he shall be my son. But the fearful & unbelieving & the abominable & murderers & whoremongers & sorcerers & idolaters & all liars shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire & brimstone: which is the second death. Here the bible clearly highlights why people will end up in the lake of fire. Yes, we need to be saved by Lord Jesus but if we don't get saved we will be judged based on our sins.

@gmapostol Revelation 20:11-15 And I saw a great white throne & Him that sat on it, from whose face the earth & the heaven fled away; & there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small & great, stand before God; & the BOOKS were opened: & another book was opened, which is the book of life: & the dead were JUDGED out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. Man will be judged for their sins otherwise there would be no need for the books.

@RealityGameWorld Too bad so sad

[Imaginefree69]

Sin is violation of YHVH's law. Fortunately the law applies only to Bronze-Age desert nomads. "Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law" Romans 3:19 And a very good thing, too, as the law results in more sin. "The law came that sin might ABOUND." Romans 5:20 As I am NOT a Bronze-Age desert dweller, the law has nothing to do with me. Therefore I am without sin. "Where there is no Law, there is no sin." Romans 4:15 The Bible tells me so.

"lol" believers fcked up then lol.

im not a believer im not religious. iam the ultimate atheist and i will never believe in the so called jesus ether,

[Revinius]

You still havent shown us, what you claim to show, which is "what is sin?" You said you were better at phrasing it than the Don, yet over several days all i have heard are unexplained bible passages. Exegete what sin means within those passages and i think a hearer will understand better.

God bless.
