In addition to reading novels and biographies I also read history. In history we get sin in big pieces, sin in mass. In none of these books is pride, envy, greed, murder, rape, stealing and lying called sin. It might be called crime or unwise or stupid, but it is not called a violation of the holiness of God. It is not called sin.
Jeremiah 17:7-8: "Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is. For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her ROOTS BY THE RIVER, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit."
