1 John 2:2
King James Version
6 Jun 2026
“And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.”
ἁμαρτία
Sin, missing the mark. Hamartia. All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Sin is not just breaking rules. It is missing the target of what humanity was created to be.
