@Op, I will answer you question with scriptural quotes. Sin is "falling short" of God's standard. Iniquity is when your will conflicts with God's will. For instance, concerning Lucifer, he said "I will be like the Most High" and the Bible records that iniquity was found in him and he was kicked out of Heaven. Transgression however, is going beyond your boundary or the liberty allowed you in God. 1 Like 1 Share |

SHALOM! OLAADEGBU: Why don't you own a CONCORDANCE? Read every reference, and learn for yourself? "SIN" DEFINED. . 1st JOHN 3:4. 4. Whosoever committeth Sin Transgresseth also The Law: for Sin is the Transgression of The Law. "INIQUITY" DEFINED. . NUMBERS 15:27-31. 27. "And if any Soul Sin through Ignorance, then he shall bring a she-goat of the first year for a Sin Offering. 28. "And the Priest shall make an Atonement for the Soul that sinneth Ignorantly, when he Sinneth by Ignorance before The LORD, to make an Atonement for him; and it shall be forgiven him. 29. "Ye shall have One Law for him that Sinneth by Ignorance, (both for) him that is born among the Children of Israel, and for the Stranger that sojourneth among you. 30. "But the Soul that doeth (ought) presumptuously, (whether he be) born in the land, or a Stranger, the same reproacheth The LORD; and that Soul shall be cut off from among his people. 31. "Because he hath despised The Word of The LORD, and hath broken his Commandment, that soul shall utterly be cut off; his Iniquity (shall be) upon him." INIQUITY IS DELIBERATE SIN. ATONEMENT does not cover iniquity. God does not HAVE TO forgive Iniquity. 1 Like |

The words iniquity, sin and transgression are mapped to different hebrew and greek words in different passages by different translators, so this question is largely meaningless. A word translated as iniquity in one passage may be translated as transgression or sin in a different passage. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Seun:Yes you're very right... Various Bible translations use all sort of synonyms to explain a word.. Sir, you haven't replied my mail |

They've started again. The inventors of orishirishi doctrines. This time based on a quirk of the Englisn language. English is full of synonyms due to it's history. Any word can easily be substituted for about 5 or 6 others. English was original a Germanic language. Then in 1066 the Normans (from France) conquered England and imposed their French and Latin language on the Germanic peoples of England. Although English was still spoken on the streets the language of Court was French. So many French and Latin words eventually infiltrated the English language, enriching it. Then the English became traders and started building empires all over the world and everywhere they when they absorbed influences into their language from the people they came into contact with. This added more words. Then the english became great inventors and explorers. Whenever they invented something or discovered something they would give it a name based on some Ancient greek word or latin word. e.g. Tele Vision. Tele means 'remote' or 'far' in ancient greek. Also back in the day, the Vikings also invaded England and settled on the eastern coast of England. They too brought their language. There is no language in this world as rich as English for have so many different words for the same thing. |

Correct guy. I see that you've backed up what you are saying with bible passages. I want to see if the OP can produce one bible passage to support the position he is going to proclaim. oaroloye: |

oaroloye: What is transgression? Can you explain why God does not have to forgive iniquity? |
Re: What Is The Difference Between Iniquity, Sin, And Transgression? by oaroloye(m): 6:56pm On Oct 22, 2016 |
OLAADEGBU: When you ask people to answer simple questions for you, you destroy your ability to answer them yourself. Why didn't you READ THE SCRIPTURE? YAHWEH GOD EXPLAINED RIGHT THERE WHY HE DOES NOT HAVE TO FORGIVE INIQUITIES. Other readers also bear witness- don't just sit there like deaf-mutes!

Seun: Why don't you show examples, if that is true? |
Re: What Is The Difference Between Iniquity, Sin, And Transgression? by jcross19: 8:57pm On Oct 22, 2016 |
oaroloye:that verse you quoted was given to israelites but now there is no sin or iniquity that's not covered by blood of jesus which is the grace but it was only sin against holy spirit that have no forgiveness. Sin is sin . The parable of the prodigal son show us that there is no sin God can't forgive if you ask for forgiveness and renounce the act. |

OLAADEGBU: Question: "What is the difference between iniquity, sin, and transgression?" Answer: In Psalm 32:5, the psalmist says, "I acknowledged my sin to you and did not cover up my iniquity. I said, 'I will confess my transgressions to the LORD.'" In this one verse, "sin," "iniquity," and "transgression" are all mentioned. Basically, the three words communicate the same idea: evil and lawlessness, as defined by God (see 1 John 3:4). However, upon closer examination, each word also carries a slightly different meaning. |
