What is your understanding about the doctrine of sin

The Methodist doctrine of sin views sin as both an act and a state. It's not just individual wrongdoings but also a fundamental alienation from God, inherited by all humanity as original sin. This inherited corruption means humans have a natural inclination to sin, leading to actual sins—voluntary transgressions against God's will. Methodism teaches that this sinful state renders humanity incapable of saving themselves or perfectly obeying God's law without divine intervention.
