Bible Verses about Sin
| Or don’t you know that the unrighteous will not inherit God’s Kingdom? Don’t be deceived.

For from within, out of the hearts of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, sexual sins, murders, thefts, covetings, wickedness, deceit, lustful desires, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, and foolishness. All these evil things come from within and defile the man.” | And then he added, “It is what comes from inside that defiles you.

All these vile things come from within; they are what defile you.” |
