Sin

What is sin?

The word translated sin in the text is chatta’ah which is ChetTetAlefHey.^[1] Although in this verse we see additional letters added to the primary word. VavChetTetAlefTavMem וְחַ֨טָּאתָ֔ם which is wə·ḥaṭ·ṭā·ṯām. It is consistently translated "and their sin". The letter Tav meaning "faith" and the letter Mem tells us this has something to do with the "flow of faith". The Vav at the beginning may be inferring that there is a separation because people are cut off from the "flow of faith". The root word is chata^[2] which is some times translated sin ut specifically means "to miss the way, go wrong."

What we often call sin is really only the evidence that we have separated ourselves from the righteous way by going or being led off the path. Sodomy, covetousness, or acts of wantonness or violence or addiction may merely be evidence that we have abandoned a natural life of faith and charity.

Supporting the poor with funds forced from one class of citizens or people by the exercise of authority by the State as we see in all forms of Socialism brings the whole of society into bondage, often addicting the people to a dependence upon the State as the power elite of the State becomes just as addicted to the power the exercise one over the other.

If a society accepts the idea that forced offerings extract from the people to provide welfare for the people is acceptable all of society will go under the power of that force. Only a society willing to support the needs of society with freewill offerings and a daily ministration through charity will remain free under the perfect law of liberty.

Polybius said it best.

"The masses continue with an appetite for benefits and the habit of receiving them by way of a rule of force and violence. The people, having grown accustomed to feed at the expense of others and to depend for their livelihood on the property of others... institute the rule of violence; ^[3] and now uniting their forces massacre, banish, and plunder,^[4] until they degenerate again into perfect savages and find once more a master and monarch." ^[5] ^[6]

Polybius saw the downfall of the republic by way of their free bread and welfare a 150 years before the first Emperor of Rome and 175 years before the birth of John the Baptist and Jesus the Christ who opposed these same systems of free bread at your neighbor's expense.

The authoritarian State often uses force and violence to become the Benefactors of the people if the covet what is their neighbors'. They make a social contract where one class of citizen is forced to provide for another class through "legal charity" which is not true charity. The writings of the Apostles warned along with countless passages of ancient writings of the prophets including Proverbs 23 which warned them about what Christ forbid which was the covetous practices of socialist forms of government.

If people leave the righteousness of The Way there will be sin and the evidence of sin is seen in their wantonness for the wages of unrighteousness and their fear of choosing a life of faith. The poor will be weakened and society will go under tyrants until it falls. Not only the Ten Commandments but the long list of sins given us by Paul is warning us that we are going wrong and we will Not inherit the kingdom.

This is not to say that we are saved by works but if we are workers of iniquity in our practice of religion or works or lack of them give us a warning that our faith may not be as real as we would like to think.

Peter, Paul, James, and John Warned

Peter^[7], Paul^[8], James^[9] and John^[10]all 'warned the New Covenant Church that what they were doing and not doing would reveal the truth of their claim to faith in God and His Holy Spirit. Paul warned people to test their faith^[11] to make sure they were not deceived or reprobates^[12].

Even John warns that we need to walk according to what Jesus showed us and confess our sins if we are to be cleansed of unrighteousness.^[13] John even gives the keeping of the commandments as the rod by which we measure the truth of our faith.^[14] And those who do not keep the commandments are a liar and Christ is not in them.^[15] Over and over John repeats that he that "doeth not righteousness" is not born again of Christ and the Father.^[16] And John warns us that we may not only be deceived but may deceive ourselves ^[17] warning us of the many false teachers who are "out in the world".^[18]

Jude 1:16 "These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling [words], having men’s persons in admiration because of advantage."

We are told that we are told in Jude 1:21 "Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. 22 And of some have compassion, making a difference: 23 And others save with fear, pulling [them] out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh."

The Bible from the beginning warns^[19] and continues those warnings throughout the New Testament that many will be decieved thinking they are believers while in truth they are workers of iniquity.^[20] Because these warnings are ignored by the modern Church, the welfare of a foolish^[21] society has become a snare.

“It is impossible to introduce into society a greater change and a greater evil than this: the conversion of the law into an instrument of plunder.”^[22]

[9] James 1:21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls. 22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. 23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: 24 For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. 25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.

3 John 1:3 For I rejoiced greatly, when the brethren came and testified of the truth that is in thee, even as thou walkest in the truth. 4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth... 11 Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth evil hath not seen God.

[16] 1 John 2:29 If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of him.
1 John 3:7 "Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous. 8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. 9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.
11 ¶ For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.
1 John 3:24 And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.
