Question

What if any is the distinction between sin and evil?

Answer 1

Sin is the belief that we are separate from God and His perfection at any moment.  It is an evil concept.

If you think of sin as a mistake or missing the mark, it is correctable at any moment. edit...there is no such thing as an evil heart.

Answer 2

Basically...

For humans to do evil is sin ('missing' God's target)

For God as the rightful Judge He can bring evil on the creation as the wages of a creature's sinful acts without sinning. Whereas if a creature tries to judge God views that as sin

- so creatures bringing evil is sinful but God bringing evil is justice...

Answer 3

Sin is defined by religion, evil is defined by society.  

Answer 4

sin is the act itself that is already done.. evil is the characteristic of sin or temptation. . . .  

Answer 5

A believe sin is an act out of the weakness of the flesh. Something you know is wrong but can not help but to do. Evil is committing acts that are wrong out of malice. You are not sorry about what you are doing, and you have no intention of stopping your evil ways.

Answer 6

Sin is part of religion and evil is for the non-believers.
