Sin

Sin is a word that describes actions that are contrary to the will of God.

Disobedience

Sin is an act of disobedience, like disobeying parents or breaking the law, but is even more important because the laws were made by God.
The Bible describes Adam and Eve as committing the first human sin, but it is believed that human beings continue to sin right up to the present day.

Punishment

Human beings deserve punishment for disobeying God, and some Christians believe in heaven and hell as places of reward and punishment.
