What here i am: What is the significance of sin in Christianity and Judaism?
In Christianity you’re “saved” just by accepting Jesus (AS). So this means you are saved from Hell. You are guaranteed a place in Heaven. So What does it matter if you sin or not?

Answer by SallyJesus was a Jew and preaching to Jews said there was a hell so Judaism denies this fact at their peril.

Answer by 4HIM- Christians loveSin is any act or attitude that you have that hurts God, yourself, and others. Jesus told us that the two commandments are that we love God with all of our heart and love others as ourselves.
When we truly accept Jesus as our Lord and our Savior, we listen to Him and allow the Holy Spirit to guide us to do what God wants us to do. Yes, after we accept Jesus, we are guaranteed a place in Heaven unless, we turn away from Him and do not want to be with Him. Although we are forgiven, we don’t entirely stop sinning because we are human. It matters if you sin or not because we hurt others and ourselves with our sins.

Answer by polskajasonThe Hebrew word for “sin” means “miss” – a missed opportunity to fulfill a commandment.

Jews practice Judaism not for fear of hell or the promise of heaven, but because we find it fulfilling to do so.
