Everyone who sins is breaking God’s law, for all sin is contrary to the law of God.
1John 3:4 NLT
Sin. The simple breaking of God’s law. Putting out of order the things He put in order, beginning with: Do not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Do not lean on your own understanding. Do not judge for yourself what is right and wrong.
