Sin - In General.
In Western Christianity, sin is often viewed as a legal infraction or contract violation, and so salvation tends to be viewed in legal terms. In Eastern Christianity, sin is more often viewed in terms of its effects on relationships, both among people and between people and God.

Consequently, salvation is viewed more in terms of reconciliation and vastly ...

 |  |  | Sin - Etymology: Encyclopedia II - Sin - Muslim views of sinIslam sees sin (dhanb ذنب) as anything that goes against the will of Allah.

The phrase rendered "unnatural desire" is literally translated "strange flesh," but it is not entirely clear what it refers to. The ESV translators supply one plausible paraphrase in making th ...
