Let me show you how the Father defines SIN. It is different than the sins of the flesh which is our nature to do while in this flesh. The leaders of Israel taught sin was many things. Such as doing work on the sabbath or not washing your hands before eating. But the father said he would reprove man. Reprove is to teach us what Sin was that keeps us from his righteousness. It is define as those who have not put their trust in Christ. Read the following scripture.
John 16 7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. 8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: 9 Of sin, because they believe not on me; 10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; 11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.
The Lord plainly tell us the definition of sin. Where people get confused is recognizing the difference of Sin and sins of the flesh. Once you Severn the difference then you will see.

There is a LOT more than just someone saying something. There are numerous lines of evidence, showing that humans are part of the Catarrhine branch of Simiformes.

sadly there is not one shred of evidence of in-between humans and monkeys, or in-between of any animal. Oh and adapting finches don't count lol that is just a beak length change to help with eating, not an entire species shift. Nice try tho.

Except that we have evidence of humans evolving from ealier hominids and even more basal ape-like creatures. It's been well studied and documented.
Or are you one of these people who want to find something like croco-duck, a half and half creature, and think that's a slam dunk against evolution.

That is an absolute falsehood. There's a great number of transitional fossils in Hominidae, but there's also numerous lines of genetic evidence like shared ERVs and shared pseudogenes. Every single Haplorrhine including humans, shares the same broken GULOp gene inherited from a common Haplorrhine ancestor.
I didn't mention finches or beaks, so I don't know why you're bringing them up. The topic is human ancestry so let's try sticking to that.
You might be in over your head with me and I'm just a dumb layman.

As others have pointed out, there's actually a great deal of evidence for the common ancestry of humans and other primates. Your post suggests either that you're unaware of that evidence or that you think there's a better explanation for it than common ancestry. Which is it?

Evidence and proof are two completely different things. Just because some think we evolved from monkeys doesn’t make them right. The idea is still largely based on assumption.

No there are not, there is evidence that humans COULD POSSIBLY be descendants of apes. There is absolutely zero evidence showing that humans ACTUALLY ARE descendants of apes. There’s a big difference there.

There are many pieces of evidence that only make sense if we actually are the descendants of apes, or at least no one to date has offered any alternative explanation that makes sense.

Are you familiar with the definition of the word “evidence”? Evidence isn’t proof of anything, evidence is merely information that can support a proposition or idea, but can also be false.

It’s doesn’t matter it’s contradictory to scripture therefore it cannot be true. The only thing science has proven is there are similarities, they can’t actually prove that we are descendants.
