Isn't sinning a little the best way to learn what sin is?

 

The apostle Paul says no! "I would not have known sin except through the law." (Romans 7:7) It is an interesting phenomenon. The more we play around with sin, the more it becomes comfortable and acceptable. The more we move away from sin by learning and living God's Word, the more attuned to what sin is we become. The one who knows nothing of God's laws has no way to identify sin. Sin is defined as the transgression of God's law (1 John 3:4).
