A sin in Hebrew is to err, or miss the target, in simple English to make a mistake. And such were some of you. 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 He did not come to abolish the law but to fulfill it. Matthew 5:17 Faith without works is dead James 2:14-26 Righteousness is a filthy rag Isaiah 64:6 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? Romans 6:1-2 To say all in all, that our relationship with the divine can only be understood in the manner in which a parent understands. When your child is unruly you punish them, when they do good you reward them, sometimes they make honest mistakes, and you forgive them, and bring them back to where they should be. But when they’re unreconcilable it’s time to let them be on their own. But there’s also a falling away from grace, and some come back, and others don’t. Solomon vs. Mark of The Beast. A parent loves their child regardless of what they do but must do what necessary. Ezekiel 18:23 I say unto thee, except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of El. John 3:3 The Wicked will burn up in their sins, their data file overwritten with new holy data, a total eradication from the universe, hence the second death. The first is the mortal death caused by physical sin, the second death is death of spirit caused by wickedness of the soul. A just merciful creator who loves his creation would not indefinitely punish a finite being for infinity. Further more eternal life is the reward, if burning in hell is a punishment forever, you still have eternal life which is a preferred state of being than to be null, naught, or void, hence no more. So therefore since enteral life is the reward it is fair to assume the lack of life is the punishment. 1, & 0. That is my conclusion folks.

I think the Bible, a book which says it's perfectly fine to slaughter an entire nation of people who did nothing to you and who posed no threat to you, can safely be ignored as a guide to morality.
