What does the Bible say about sins of ignorance?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that sin is sin, whether committed knowingly or in ignorance, and that all deviations from God's commands make one guilty.

Scripture, particularly in Leviticus 4:27 and Leviticus 5:17-18, makes it clear that even unintentional sins are accounted as violations of God's law. The individual who sins unintentionally is still guilty and must bear responsibility for their actions. The law of God does not provide an escape for the unaware; instead, it emphasizes the seriousness of all types of sin, highlighting the necessity for atonement, regardless of intent.
