SIN and INIQUITY

~ Concepts to meditate and consider ~



• USING HIS WORD as the LENS through which we process the WORLD

• Understanding the Hebraic Culture versus Pagan Culture [Greco-Roman]

• Seeing Holiness as being SET APART

• Why is this important to GRASP?

• Set Apart from WHAT?

• Is GOD trying to HELP Us or HURT Us?

Sin versus Iniquity

H2398            ha’ta               Sin

                                                “to miss the mark”

To go in the wrong direction – whether knowingly or unknowingly

G266              hamartia       to miss the mark

                                                Or to be without a share in

H5771            `avon              guilt or punishment from doing that which is perverse or

                                                depraved.

                                                The manifestation of “missing” the mark

H6588            pesha`            to transgress as in rebellion

G93                 adikia             unjust, one who practices injustice or unrighteousness

In essence, SIN is missing GOD's mark for us whereas as iniquity is the continual transgression of GOD's will.

• Or SIN in continual motion

Remember  HIS TORAH is designed to help us HIT the MARK.

• TORAH means instruction or teaching [Not what we commonly interpret as "Law"]
