Sin can be categorized into various kinds. However, for the purpose of this write-up, we shall examine four different kinds of sin, as outlined in the Scripture. They are:
- Secret sins: These are sins we commit ignorantly or unknowingly. Even though we are not aware of these sins as sin, that does not make us free from the guilt of such sins. They can also be sins that we commit in the secret, away from the knowledge and eyes of others. The truth is, sins want to be kept secret. However, such sins cannot remain secret forever. In Numbers 32:23, Moses told the Israelites, “be sure your sin will find you out.” There are examples of people in the Bible who tried to keep their sins secret. Some of them are Achan, Ananias and Sapphira, etc. Though secret sins are hidden from man, they are not hidden from God who sees in the secret.
- Presumptuous sins: Presumptuous sins mean being bold or daring, taking liberties for granted, and acting according to or dictates instead of being guided by God’s principles. Nadab and Abihu, sons of Aaron, Moses and Uzzah are examples of people who sinned presumptuously in the Bible. According to Psalm 19:13, David referred to presumptuous sin as a great transgression.
- Besetting sins (Hebrews 12:1): Another category of sin is besetting sin. These are sins which cling to us closely, can hinder us in our race as Christians and which are so easily committed. Some areas from which besetting sin can arise are smoking, lottery/gambling, prejudice, lying, filthy speech, gossiping, lust, envy, etc. We can overcome besetting sins by the help of the Holy Spirit.
- Willful sins (Hebrews 10: 26-31): These are sins we commit despite knowing that they are sins. It is deliberately refusing to accept and doing what is right and lawful. When a person persistently rejects Christ, despite knowing and experiencing the truth about Christ, such a fellow has committed willful sin.
