Cerek, could you perhaps elaborate a little on what you consider sin? We talked about sincere repentance of sins, but what do we consider a sin? Obviously (obvious to me at least), we cannot take the Bible (or the O.T.) as a literary and conclusive list as to what sin is, and obviously there are widely divergent opinions on sin among the different branches of the Christian Church. I realise that because of the latter fact, I've just opened a big can of worms But let's say therefore that I'm just asking your personal definition of the nature of sin. [img]smile.gif[/img]
The reason why I ask this is because even though I'm not Christian, I think I more or less share the views on morality and consider many things that the Christians call 'sins' wrong myself. So if I commit something a Christian calls a sin, I often am repentant about my action. However, I know that there are are also many things considered sin for which I refuse to feel guilty, and which I refuse to see as a bad thing.
