James 4:17
Anyone,
then, who knows the good he ought to do and doesn't do it, sins.
1 John 5:17
All wrongdoing is sin, and there is sin that does not lead to
death.
Romans 5:12-21
12 Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man,
and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all
sinned—
13 for before the law was given, sin was in the world. But
sin is not taken into account when there is no law.
14 Nevertheless, death reigned from the time of Adam to the
time of Moses, even over those who did not sin by breaking a command, as did
Adam, who was a pattern of the one to come.
15 But the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many
died by the trespass of the one man, how much more did God's grace and the gift
that came by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, overflow to the many!
16 Again, the gift of God is not like the result of the one
man's sin: The judgment followed one sin and brought condemnation, but the gift
followed many trespasses and brought justification.
17 For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned
through that one man, how much more will those who receive God's abundant
provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the
one man, Jesus Christ.
18 Consequently, just as the result of one trespass was
condemnation for all men, so also the result of one act of righteousness was
justification that brings life for all men.
19 For just as through the disobedience of the one man the
many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many
will be made righteous.
20 The law was added so that the trespass might increase. But
where sin increased, grace increased all the more,
21 so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might
reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our
Lord.
