Bible Question: I know that sins are committed against others; what sins do we commit only against ourselves? |
Bible Answer: Hi, Kay... Welcome to the forum! Sin is any lack of conformity to the moral law of God. It can be a matter of action, either by commission (doing something) or omission (failing to do something). It can be a matter of thought or affections. It can be a matter of one's nature. All sin is committed against God. "In the least transgression I set myself above the authority of God, doing insult to His majesty, His holiness,and His sovereign right to govern me. Sin is a revolutionary act in which the sinner seeks to depose God from His throne. Sin is a presumption of supreme arrogance in that the creature vaunts his own wisdom above that of the Creator, challenges divine omnipotence with human impotence, and seeks to usurp the rightful authority of the cosmic Lord." --R. C. Sproul In Him, Doc |
