How do you define sin?
Added 7/15/2009

Posted by Doug Seletzky at 11:59:19 AM

Sin is building your identity—finding your greatest meaning, significance and security—on something besides God. Everyone centers his or her life on something and whatever that is becomes by definition and function a)your god—something you adore and serve with your whole heart, and b) your "savior"—something you have to have in order to feel spiritually and emotionally significant and meaningful. So even the seemingly most nonreligious people are living lives of worship, working for their "salvation" though not expressing it so to themselves." - Tim Keller
