Sin as Systemic vs. Individual

Front

How is 'sin' typically redefined in Progressive Christianity?

Back

Sin is often viewed as participation in systemic injustice (racism, sexism) rather than an individual's personal rebellion against God's law.

Explanation

The focus shifts from internal moral failure needing a Savior to societal failure needing collective activism and enlightenment.
