This document details the biblical concept of sin as presented in the key New Testament passages (Galatians 5:19-21, 2 Timothy 3:1-5, Mark 7:21-22, and Romans 1:28-32), using accurate translations from the Apostolic Polyglot Bible. The focus is on the precise meanings of the Greek terms via Thayer's Greek Lexicon definitions (retained in full for accuracy).
