“I would not have come to know sin except through the Law…” (Romans 7:7)
Sin is not a subjective thing. It isn’t wrong because it feels wrong, nor are things right because they feel right. Sin is based upon the law of God. God tells us what is right and wrong. Ethics are an objective truth based upon the authority of God’s Word.
Sin is universal – lying will always be wrong, no matter what the scenario. Sin is not avoided by ignorance – just because a child may not know it is wrong to throw their toys at people doesn’t change the fact that it is wrong. The first defense against sin is knowledge. Once you know about the problem, you can begin to avoid it. The Bible is the map around the land mines. Through Jesus, it is also the path to reconciliation for past sins, too.
