Are you claiming that the Ten Commandments define sin?
Some verses in the Bible about Sin and Lawlessness
1 John 3:4
Whoever commits sin also commits lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness.
Romans 3:20
Therefore by the deeds of the law no flesh will be justified in His sight, for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
Romans 2:13-16
(for not the hearers of the law are just in the sight of God, but the doers of the law will be justified; for when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do the things in the law, these, although not having the law, are a law to themselves, who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and between themselves their thoughts accusing or else excusing them) in the day when God will judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ, according to my gospel.
Romans 7:12
Therefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy and just and good.
Matthew 5:17-19
"Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled. Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
Matthew 19:17
So He said to him, "Why do you call Me good? No one is good but One, that is, God. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments."
Romans 6:1-2
What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? Certainly not! How shall we who died to sin live any longer in it?
Romans 7:14
For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, sold under sin.
Romans 3:31
Do we then make void the law through faith? Certainly not! On the contrary, we establish the law.
Romans 4:15
because the law brings about wrath; for where there is no law there is no transgression.
Romans 6:15
What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? Certainly not!
Romans 7:7
What shall we say then? Is the law sin? Certainly not! On the contrary, I would not have known sin except through the law. For I would not have known covetousness unless the law had said, “You shall not covet.”
