Disobedience to God. The breaking of a rule, law, or order of God, the offending of God.
Speeding is not a sin, in that God doesn't set a speed limit. Fornication is a sin in that any intercourse outside of marriage is fornication (1 Corinthians 5:1).
The Apostle Paul wrote that fornication was a sin against your own body (1 Corinthians 6:18).
"Sin" is often misused in modern Christianity to describe anything done by a Christian that is wrong, rather than reserving the term to mean something offensive to God.
