What is sin?

I have been pondering this question for some time in light of Romans 5 6 7.

Some scriptures that really have shed some light for me are:

Rom. 5:13 "For until the law sin was in the world, but sin is not imputed when there is no law."

Rom. 4:15 "because the law brings about wrath: for where there is no law there is no transgression."

Rom. 6:14 " For sin shall not have domion over you, for you are not under law but under grace."

Rom. 7:6 " But now we have been delivered from the law, having died to what we were held by, so that we should serve in the newness of the spirit and not in the oldness of the letter."

I will stop there for now.

I believe the transgression of the New Covenant is not breaking the law, but our unbelief.

"Sin is not receiving Him to be our Life!"

"Sin is not trusting God to be our all Sufficiency!"

Rom 5:1-2 "Therefore, having been justified by faith,(declared righteous) we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have obtained our introduction by faith into this grace in which we stand; and we exult (rejoice, joy) in hope of the glory of God. "

"Thank you Lord that we can Joy in knowing who we are!"

More later!
