Through Christ ] Therefore‚ just as sin entered the world through one man‚ and death through sin‚ and in this way death came to all men‚ because all sinned. “It is proven every human being sins. Sin is often defined as missing the mark. It is a failure to live up to God’s requirements”. When we use the word "sin" many people have very different ideas about what sin actually is. Most people think of sin only as committing very evil crimes. Others don’t use the word sin when talking about their own deficiencies

insensitivity to sin and evil. Pride is one of the reasons why we sinned. It is true! Because of pride‚ we can do things against the will of God and that means committing sins. To lessen or even stop us from committing sins‚ first is to become humble. Let’s remember that our life here on earth is temporary. This is just a test‚ an entrance test to heaven. For us to pass‚ we must do good things. We must do things that will make Him happy‚ not those things that will make him sad (sins). Of course

Sin as Anti-Creation Cornelius Plantinga Jr. defines sin as “a disruption of created harmony and then resistance to divine restoration of that harmony” and says “sin disrupts and resists the vital human relation to God‚ and it does all this disruption and resisting in a number of intertwined ways”(Plantinga).

Sin is humanity’s greatest problem. Because of it‚ humans are separated from their Creator and cannot enjoy His promised blessings. Therefore‚ it is pertinent that the church has the proper view of sin. This starts with a proper definition from the apostle John‚ who states that sin is lawlessness (1 Jn. 3:4).
