    What is sin?

    I admit I'm new here. And I've only spent about 30 years thinking about and studying these issues, but it seems to me that you haven't thought through some of your premises to their logical conclusions.

    The Gospel - according to me

    God is sovereign. Therefore nothing happens without God’s having ordained it. God’s foreknowledge is, in effect, the same as God’s fore-ordination. Therefore, “sin” – defined as a violating of God’s will – is not possible. Therefore, sin is a delusion, a lie. Sinners are those who believe...
