Sin is not what man says sin is, but rather sin is what God says sin is in Scripture.
What sin is in Scripture: unrighteousness, ungodliness, transgression of the law of God, Trespassing His commandment, of the devil.
What men say sin is: Issues with the flesh. Natural Proclivities. Bad Habits. Having a bad day.
Those who downgrade sinning against God to occasional 'missteps', are those who continue to sin and trespass against God like the devil, and yet don't want to think of themselves as sinners of the devil and enemies with God:
But God shall wound the head of his enemies, and the hairy scalp of such an one as goeth on still in his trespasses.
