What is sin? This is a question I asked my guidance many, many years ago. I was informed that sin is knowing not to do something but doing it anyway.
Sin is that feeling of our conscience deciding something is wrong due to our social upbringing. A child does many things spontaneously and does not know it's wrong until told. An animal does things and has no sin because it hasn't been trained, yet, to believe otherwise.
A sin is when we know, deep down inside, we are doing something we shouldn't, even without an awareness why that feeling is there.
Then I asked if our Creator judges us for our sins. They said: no, we do. If we decide to stand before this Divine Soul, it will be our individual feelings that tell if we've done something wrong within us. This is how we know we are growing and learning. This is how we see the areas that may be needed for improvement. This is how we decide what we need to do to make amends to ourselves and/or others ... if we have that conscience to do so.
We're not being judged by anyone of divine light, we're being guided ... with love, kindness and understanding.
Judging comes from those who believe they are sinless when they are not, because everyone, at one time or another, has sinned ... base on the description given of sin. Judging comes from those who have no desire to know or understand because it serves no purpose for them to do otherwise. They truly don't want to know the reasons or answers because they may be consumed with hate of everything or everyone.
They prefer to judge another than themselves. They prefer to point at others than themselves. Maybe they fear looking in the mirror of their soul for what truth may reflect back at them.
That's why metaphysical teachers tell us to look within. It's not because we have all the answers within, we have OUR answers within ... our understanding ... our saving grace ... our forgiveness ... leading to our peace of mind ... our internal peace.
This is why we have been told that peace within leads to peace without.
Do you see the steps that are necessary?
Do you see the mirror?
What do you see?
