Missing the mark or transgression of the will of God are just two different ways to say the same thing..
It is a Biblical concept that is supported by the Bible that if you know that there is a good deed you should do and you fail to do it then that is sin..
So sin is not just doing something bad , but it is also failing to do something good..
Missing the mark and transgressing no matter what term you like is what all people are guilty off..
Thanks be to our LORD Jesus Christ for taking upon Himself the judgement we deserve for our missing of His mark / trtansgressions against his will..

Do you have a point to this?
It appears you have a conviction about defining sin, but the truth is sin
was never our problem, it is why we commit sin that matters.
The tree of knowledge of good and evil just provides you with a choice,
it does not provide you with loyalties or relationships which govern which
you follow.
But this simple level of spiritual reality seems to have passed you by.
So what are you contributing?

Peter, I believe there is a lot of good stuff, yours included, and I thank you for your effort. I am juggling 3 forums and 16 threads, so I may not answer every post. sorry, but thanks. Again as a compliment, I would say you guys are scholars of the first water. I have learned a lot. Especially all the places where the Bible tells us to hear God.

1) call your minister and confirm that the correct definition for amartais. is "To miss the God's best.
2)
a) contact a Greek scholar to confirm above
b) confirm that there is no "h" in the greek alphabet. The Greeks use an aspirated A to create the h sound.
3) If you are the assured that I am not a "heretic," then we can concede that is a closed matter.

I will second everything Chester said.

From the minute that I returned to the forums, I was attacked, viciously, Well, I really didn't want to return, but God made me. About 23 years ago, I walked away from the forums. Let me repeat, I never wanted to return. God pushed. God said, "They don't even know the definition of sin!" I thought that God was wrong. God was right.
People threatened me, I was called a Heretic and ridiculed. People asked who sent me! People said that I was in it for money! There's no one that cares about you that they would pay someone to come and work here.
My friends warned me about Trolls. There were Trolls here 23 years ago, and when I departed I said that I wouldn't return. I would rather not deal with people like this.
God and I had an agreement. If I saw this was insanely distasteful, I would just leave for 23 years and try again later.
