    ECT Why are Christians afraid of Judgment Day?

    I have come across Christians who say there is no day of judgment and reject the plain truth of scripture and worse, those who claim that the Commandants were done away with, and that even if not, Grace covers them anyway.

    What is God's definition of sin?

    What is God's definition of sin? If we look in scripture, God says that sin is breaking His law, "Sin is the transgression of the law." 1 John 3:4. So if as some claim, the law no longer applies, is there no longer sin. Of course not, as we all clearly know. So what does this mean, what does...
