Question 24

What is sin?

Scripture

  1. 1 John 3:4 [1]
    Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness. (ESV)
  2. Galatians 3:10 [1]
    The Righteous Shall Live by Faith For all who rely on works of the law are under a curse; for it is written, “Cursed be everyone who does not abide by all things written in the Book of the Law, and do them.” (ESV)
  3. Galatians 3:12 [1]
    But the law is not of faith, rather “The one who does them shall live by them.” (ESV)
