who can give me a crash course on the bible?

Question

what is sinful, what is not? right now im so confused ive been reading about God's plan, free will etc but im quite confused.

Answer 1

If you like doing it, it is a sin.

Answer 2

Don't try to make some list of things you can or cannot do in Christianity. It's not a do and do not list. The crash course can be explained like this

We are sinful by nature. Everyone has fallen short of the glory of God. We are imperfect. (Romans 3:23). The penatly of sin is death. (Romans 6:23) Christ came to pay the penalty of our sins so that we are able to be forgiven. God loves you so much that he sent his son to die for you. (John 3:16). That sacrifice was made so that you can have abundant life. (John 10:10). Christ rose from the dead after 3 days and ascended into heaven to reign as the King of Kings. You are able to have life through the death of Christ. With him, you can be saved. It is by grace that you are saved. If you want to talk to someone, you can email me through my profile.

Pet Shop Boys - It's A Sin

(Twenty seconds and counting...
T minus fifteen seconds, guidance is okay)
??
When I look back upon my life
It's always with a sense of shame
I've always been the one to blame
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too

It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
It's a sin
Everything I've ever done
Everything I ever do
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going to
It's a sin

At school they taught me how to be
So pure in thought and word and deed
They didn't quite succeed
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too

It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
It's a sin
Everything I've ever done
Everything I ever do
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going to
It's a sin

Father, forgive me, I tried not to do it
Turned over a new leaf, then tore right through it
Whatever you taught me, I didn't believe it
Father, you fought me, 'cause I didn't care
And I still don't understand

So I look back upon my life
Forever with a sense of shame
I've always been the one to blame
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too

It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
It's a sin
Everything I've ever done
Everything I ever do
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going to - it's a sin
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin

(Confiteor Deo omnipotenti vobis fratres, quia peccavi nimis cogitatione,
verbo, opere et omissione, mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa)
[trans. "I confess to almighty god,
and to you my brothers,
that I have sinned exceedingly
in thought, word, act and omission,
through my fault, through my fault,
through my most grievous fault"]

(Zero!)
