Sin

Sin is anything that leads to death. Even an earthquake. Somebody caused that earthquake and God did not stop it. How else can Jesus say:
“Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father’s care. And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.” John 29-30
Maybe we will find out who caused that earthquake in the Millennium. An angle or demon? Satan? No question will be too hard for Jesus in that Day:
“When the queen of Sheba heard of Solomon’s fame, she came to Jerusalem to test him with hard questions. Arriving with a very great caravan—with camels carrying spices, large quantities of gold, and precious stones—she came to Solomon and talked with him about all she had on her mind. Solomon answered all her questions; nothing was too hard for him to explain to her.” 2 Chronicles 9:1-2
No question was too hard! And none will be too hard for Jesus when he is reigning in even greater majesty than Solomon.

It is a little nonsensical for a Christian to say I’m sinning or I’m not sinning. Can we by our righteousness live forever? We can reduce sin and perhaps live a little longer, but ultimately death devours all, righteous and unrighteous alike. We are in a sinful milieu all around us. None has access to the trees of life, and Satan and demons are still prowling around to do us harm. All evil must be totally destroyed before we can have total peace. This will occur in the Eighth Day, the Grand Jubilee, the 50th thousand-year Day. That Day is still 861 years out!
