What is sin?
If everyone is guilty of sin, what is sin? The Bible defines sin very clearly in the New Testament. In 1 John 5:17, John said, "All unrighteousness is sin." If righteousness describes God, then unrighteousness is just the opposite. So sin is doing the opposite of what God says. In Romans 6:13, Paul encouraged the brethren not to be instruments of unrighteousness, but rather instruments of righteousness. Paul continues the thought in chapter 9, verse 14 where he confirms there is no unrighteousness with God!
