the intended meaning of "sin" in its original language can be interpreted as "missing the mark". What is that "mark"? According to the Bible, the mark is the Truth, God's Word, or to simply put, living according to the Word of God, or living the life that Jesus commanded us to live. Therefore, all acts of "sin" as postulated by the society (e.g. immoral behaviour, adultery, murder etc), according to the Word of God are merely the symptoms of sin. Therefore, real sin or the root sin is the very fact that we are not living according to God's ways, but "missing the mark" and going on our own ways.
