Sin of ommission - obstinate or deliberate obscuring of awareness of something we should have done, but didn’t. Moral blindness.
Sin of commission - acting upon a desire or out of anger and ultimately bringing harm or shame to oneself or others. Immorality.

For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all (James 2:10)

Thank you, this post is dead on.

I am so grieved at seeing people either discounting the seriousness of sin or going to terrible lengths to try to "cleanse" thenselves. Both are deadly, eternal mistakes.

All of us have become like one who is unclean,
and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags;
we all shrivel up like a leaf,
and like the wind our sins sweep us away.
Isaiah 64:6

I'm told the Greek word is actually "menstrual rags".

1John 3:4 ... sin is the transgression of the law.
(I’m guilty in all)

John’s quill had to be shaking when he saw the scenes of the end. Knowing this, and to give him comfort, I’m sure the angel directed his prophetic gaze toward a small surviving group;

Rev 12:17... And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God...
Rev 14:12... Here is the patience of the saints: here [are] they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.

Commandment-keeping, how peculiar!

Drives me weeping to my belly, to be thought so...odd.
