What is sin?

Everyone is a sinner from birth, but what separates the heaven bound from the hell bound?

1 John 3:4-8 NASB

Everyone who practices sin also practices lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness. You know that He appeared in order to take away sins; and in Him there is no sin. No one who abides in Him sins; no one who sins has seen Him or knows Him. Little children, make sure no one deceives you; the one who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous; the one who practices sin is of the devil; for the devil has sinned from the beginning. The Son of God appeared for this purpose, to destroy the works of the devil.

Sin is not just murder, rape, robbery, etc. Sin is failing to do the things we should and doing those things that we should not. Sin is a break in fellowship with God.
Ask yourself are you practicing sin?
