A Baptist Catechism Question 18

I am getting A Baptist Catechism from Desiring God website. I am trying to hang in there and to learn from this too.

Question 18: What is sin?

Answer: Sin is transgression of the revealed will of God which teaches that we are to act in perfect holiness from a heart of faith to the glory of God.

Scripture: 1 John 3:4; Romans 5:13; Romans 14:23; 1 Peter 1:16; Matthew 5:48; 1 Corinthians 10:31.(I will be posting it below, so that you don't have to go to the link. All the link will be English Standard Version "ESV".)

Comment Simplified: Sin is any attitude or desire or action that explicitly breaks a commandment of Scripture, or comes from a heart of unbelief or is not done for the glory of God.

4 Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness. 1 John 3:4 ESV

13 for sin indeed was in the world before the law was given, but sin is not counted where there is no law. Romans 5:13 ESV

23 But whoever has doubts is condemned if he eats, because the eating is not from faith. For whatever does not proceed from faith is sin. Romans 14:23 ESV

16 since it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.” 1 Peter 1:16 ESV

48 You therefore must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect. Matthew 5:48 ESV

31 So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.
1 Corinthians 10:31 ESV
