Sin of omission

Type of sin

In Christianity, a sin of omission is a sin committed by willingly not performing a certain action. The theology behind a sin of omission derives from James 4:17, which teaches "Anyone, then, who knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, commits sin." Its opposite is the sin of commission, i.e. a sin resulting from an action performed.
