1. Sin is a serious offense against God.
2. Yes, we are all born with rebellious hearts toward God. (see Romans 3:23)
This is because we inherited a sin nature from the first
man and woman, Adam and Eve---Sin entered the world when they disobeyed God.
3. We sin because we are sinners.
4. The penalty for sin is death. (Ro 6:23)
God is just and sin has to be dealt with.
5. There are consequences for sin-----for example, habit of lying, some sickness, broken relationships, anxiety, life if prison, death etc.
Hope this helps.

1. What is sin?: By definition, a sin is doing something that diverges from what some divine being wants a human to do. Since divine beings are mythological, sin is also mythological.

2. Are all people sinners?: Only in mythology

3. Do people become sinners because they sin or do they sin because they are sinners?: Christian mythology is split on this. Those that believe in "original sin" believe that through the conception & birth process, human beings emerge from the womb as sinners (under the curse of Adam). (This is one of the reasons given why Jesus was born from a virgin.) As such, no matter what one has done, one has inherited sinful status. After that, there are other ways in which humans may displease God. Other Christians see human beings as being born relatively pure, but inevitably do things to displease God because it is human nature to be rebellious.

4. What is God's penalty for sin, if any? In Christian mythology, God's penalty for sin is death, punishment in hell, or a curse in this lifetime. Or all three.

5. Are there penalties that occur on earth for sins in a person's daily life?: In Christian mythology, this varies. The obvious answer is that there are people who prosper from breaking commandments, and never pay any consequences. However, some Christians insist that these people suffer, in spite of the lack of evidence for this conclusion.

1. disobedience/rebellious/stubbornness to obey.
2. all are born sinners..for the DNA from adam and eve, cain, ect.
3. they sin because they have inside their soul and body and spirit to commit sin. again the DNA of spirit pass on from parent, DNA of personliaty wieakness (soul, will emotion) and the DNA of the body are effected by the sins of their spirit and soul pass down to them.(gay, thievery, lying, adultery,murder, poverty curse, disease curses, mind illnesses, shorten life span, midget, on and on)

4. DEATH
5. sins open doors of hell in their lives. diseases, poverty, strife, ect.
question should had ask.
the cure for punishment of SIN is BLOOD of JESUS.
the cure for all these curses of DNA spirit soul and bgody is the BLOOD of JESUS.
the cure for poverty curse isthe BLOOD OF JESUS (GOD curse the earth with thorns) and JESUS worn the crown of thorns..and blood touch it.and destroy the curse of pover..the stripes on JESUS back destroy the curses of deiseases, the striking, hitting, spitting on jESUS is the abuse from humans..as liberty for our WUUNDS in emotion and body and spirit.
and the nailing of his body on the cross and all sins and curses and diseases WORLDWIDE was put onto JESUS body..cancer, twisted body, destroyed his joints, no broken bones, perice his heart, is emotion symbol for our heaing too.
GOD is darn smart TODAY our sins is paid for..read romans 3,4,5. and 2cor.5:17-21. we are NOW FORGIVEN..if.we accept the savior as our PAYMENT..romans 6 reveals the power of SINING is destroyed..so renewing our mind and filling our heart man..spirit man with HIS WORDS..we will sin hardly at all anymore. whatever sin natural we have..the blood covers it.
this is why GOD siad..be perfect for I am perfect.
be HOLY for I am holy.
in doing of this..it help us..grow up.and get rid of childish behavor and in our ebedience..prosperity come forth onto us.and long life is given..too.
