Sin... Willful Transgression

Sin, as an act, is defined by John Wesley as "A willful transgression against a known law of God."

Anyone, then, who knows the good he ought to do and doesn't do it,
sins.
-- James 4:17 (NIV)

Dr. Stephen Manley has described sin as shaking my fist of rebellion in God's face.

Lord, give us a holy hunger to turn from all rebellion and to prefer a right relationship with You. In Jesus' name. Amen.

Holiness Unto The Lord!
