It's Me, Hi, I'm the Problem it's Me (Doctrine of Sin)


Listen Later

Jen Wilkin, JT English, and Kyle Worley discuss the doctrine of sin; what is it and what it means for us.

Questions Covered in This Episode:

  • What is a good definition of sin?
  • What is the story of sin? What is happening in Genesis 3?
  • What is Exile, and why is it significant?
  • What is a sin of commission? What is a sin of omission?
  • What does it mean to be Augustinian in our view of sin?
  • Is sin individual, or has sin impacted the world at large?

Helpful Definitions:

  • Hamartiology: Doctrine of Sin
  • Sin: Rebellion against God.
    • Fractures our relationship with God, one another, the created order, and ourselves.
  • Total Depravity: We have a sinful nature because of Adam and Eve.
  • Exile: Lost access as humanity to the beatific presence with God.
    • The experience of pain and suffering that results from the knowledge that there is a home where one belongs, yet for the present one is unable to return there. 
  • Sin of commission: A sin that we commit, an action.
  • Sin of omission: What we have left undone.
  • Augustinian:
    • Gen 1-2: Able to not sin.
    • Gen 3: Not able to not sin.
    • Post Christ's life: Able to not sin.
    • Future: Not able to sin.
