## Resource

Today, we’re diving into a question that lies at the heart of everything we believe, confess, and live by: What is sin? But before we go back to the ancient text, I want to start right here — in our time — in the way we often misunderstand sin. I saw a meme recently that said: “Society is just sinners judging other sinners for sinning differently.” That hit me hard. Because it’s true, isn’t it? In our modern world, we’ve distorted sin in both directions. Some people lessen it — they say, “Oh, that’s not really sin anymore, times have changed.” Others intensify it — magnifying someone else’s sin while ignoring their own. And then we do something even more dangerous: we start comparing sins. We calibrate them like weights on a scale — measuring, ranking, excusing, condemning — as if God grades on a curve.
