APOSTASY - Literally, "turning away."  This sin is committed when a Christian or body of believers rejects the true faith of Christ (1 Tim. 1:5 7; 4:1-3). Apostasy is the rejection of Christ and His saving power after baptism. An apostate is a person who has entered into apostasy, leaving the Church.
