Guess that depends upon your definition of "sin"?
To me, sin is nothing more than going against the will/wishes of your chosen deity.
I will speak in general terms, sin is the breach of an objective morality (e.g. moral law) and breach of your deity's holiness (whatever or whoever it is you believe in).
To claim that all who do not follow your chosen deities rules are sinning is nothing more than an exercise in arrogance.
Strawman and fallacy, even a universalist, those who believe in the universality of gods in many names have a standard set of morality, even an atheist has to subscribe to some form societal requirements or conformance otherwise they shall be charged of sinning against the law of man. The requirement of the law itself (or the requirement of deities) is not arrogance in itself. The blatant and rebellious disregard of it (moral laws and deity) is arrogance. In short, violation of law without regard to its consequence or sinning with impunity is arrogance, yes, that is what you call arrogance. Exercise of moral law is human necessity and a natural requirement for orderly and reasonably equitable political and societal relationships. That is, moral law is a necessity even at the onset of human history, regardless of whether in an absolute (theist view) or a relative (theist and atheist view) aspect of it. Even the most heinous atheist in Stalin didnt preclude him to require obedience to his communist law and punish those who breach the law. Even a loving father in you will impose penalty or punishment to your kids for breaking your simple rule of going to bed early, now I ask you, will you call this earthly father arrogant for telling his kids that they are breaking (sinning) his rules??
Not to be offensive, but it seems to me that the claim al people are born sinful and thus require your church for 'medicine' sounds more like a con than actual truth.
Especially given the arguments against the reality of said "born sinful" condition.
You are gravely mistaken, Church is not the medicine, Christ is. Church is just a congregation of recovered weaklings who are worshipping and drawing strength from the vine (Christ), and drawing strength from each other through fellowship, prayer and breaking of bread.
What is actual truth then?
"Roma 5:12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and
so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: "
Is it better for us to throw away the bible then, and believe in some other form of literature, where man is glorified to nirvana of their choice, to whatever god that will please him,
under his own term.. Now that is delusion, in the purest atheistic sense, a man subscribing to a belief out of his own imaginations and his own terms. We have a faith that is enabled by the spirit of the Lord, faith that enable the blind (sinners) to see the truth and freedom which is in Christ, affirmed by the certainties of promises written in the bible, a written revelations of Gods terms and will for man, a book
untainted of mans vile imaginations (the moral objectivity of the bible will depend on your faith that the bible is inerrant, holy spirit inspired and God-breathed word of God).
The bible indeed
is very imposing on man's freewill, especially imposing to those who have not known the liberality of grace that is in Christ Jesus!!
In Christ, the bondage of sin is broken
for Christ resurrected triumphant and victorious over sin, the reason we really need Christ to save us from the penalties of sin. For the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus. Those who have Christ are passed from death to life. Christ is the shepherd of His lost sheep
