I'm a bit confused, here.
I'm told that all have sinned.
I'm told that our sin has separated us from God.
I am told that it is our sin that put Our Lord, Jesus Christ up on the cross.
I believe these things.
But what is "sin"?
The Beloved Disciple has the answer:
1Jn 3:4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
But..how is this so? A great many people on this board seem to think that there is no more law. The law, they tell me, has been "done away". It is no more.
So, how are we transgressing the law? Where there is no law, there is no sin.
