I swore really bad the other day.... It was willfull....but since Christ says none are perfect. I felt better after I said I was sorry------
Great question.
I think this (especially Christian) distinction promoted the worst kind of hypocrisy, i.e. cheating with oneself.

How do you define "sin"?

nah, not all will is sinful - but anything negative that i do to annoy my stepdad is!
Willful sin is where you know that it is a sin and you tell yourself I know it is a sin but I am gonna do it anyway. It's especially hard when she is standin right in front of ya naked as a jaybird. Ya know what I mean ? LOL

Ya, and it was probably my bad influence that prompted the swearing in the first place .......I can't do anything right.
I don't consider newborn babies capable of willful sin.
I swore really bad the other day
What if you just think it? Would that have been a sin? If so, then you did a double sin. You thought it AND spoke it.
