What do you think it means to sin? As a Christian, I have my definition of sin. What is yours?

We are all sinners. No man has ever walked this earth without sin except Jesus. As Christians, we are to live our lives as close to sinless as possible but it is impossible to be perfect. There will be times that we commit sin and don't even realize it until much later, once we learn how it doesn't line up with the will of God.

well no I'm not a sinner..but I don't believe in your book either.. let me think a minute..
sin, well your bible says you're born a sinner and Jesus died for your sins so you could inherit the kingdom of god.. According to your book he forgives you for sinning.
Sin is disobeying the 10 commandments.. as a Christian do you know where those are? Start off with Deut 5 and read..

I am a sinner. I believe a 'sin' in my eyes is to doing something wrong--intentionally. It doesn't matter what it is. If I meant to do it...and I didn't care about anyone or any consequences, Then I am sinning.
and yes I have sinned and I know I will sin again.

I cannot say that I am a sinner because if I say that I am a sinner I would expect Jesus to forgive me. Only God knows if I am truly a sinner and he would choose if I should be forgiven.
Sin is the act of doing something we know we should not have. Regret is the 1st symptom of sin and the forgetting of that regret the 2nd one.

A sin is deliberately going against what God's commandments. If you lie, knowing it is wrong, than it is a sin.
There are sins of commission (doing something wrong) and sins of omission (not doing something we should have.)
And yes I am a sinner. If not perhaps I would be taken up like Enoch.

Without a doubt. I love sinning. I sin every chance I get. See, once I realized that your stupid jebus is a fake as the easter bunny, I realized I was free to do whatever I wanted...within man's law of course.
Silly christain, you are gonna miss out on a whole lotta life if you keep believing in make-believe.
hahahahahahah

We are all sinners. To sin is to go against the Word of God.

No, I am a human being, thoughtful and responsible for my own actions. As and adult and parent I am responsible for raising thoughtful and responsible offspring.
I think sin is a creation of religion, a word meant to instill guilt into humans in order to coerce "good behavior", this concept retards the minds of religious zealots by offering an overly simplistic view of morality and righteousness.

Anything that harms yourself or another on purpose is basically a "sin" if there were any. There really are no sins - just lessons to be learned.

all sin in the flesh. sin is disobeying the law {Jesus did not abolish the law he did not change any of it except blood sacrifices}
