Answer: Willful sin is a purposeful choice to sin, even though you know God is against it and that you should not do it. It means you are putting your will above God’s. Parents often see this in their own children. There are times they are disobedient because they forgot, or the lure of doing something they knew they shouldn’t was just too strong.
