Sin

Why is the world full of pain, injustice, and suffering? Why do we struggle with selfishness, immorality, and guilt—even when we want to do what’s right? The Bible describes sin as more than just breaking rules; it’s a deep-rooted condition. Sin separates us from God and distorts the good design he intended for humanity.

Let’s examine the origins, consequences, and ultimate solution to sin through the lens of science and biblical truth.
