Mike Hayes Answers:
What is Hamartiology?
Mike Hayes Answers:
Hamartiology is simply put, the study of sin. Hamartia is a Greek word meaning “missing the mark” and coupled with the word logia or “discourse,” we get the word for studying sin.
In general, Hamartiology is a division of systematic theology, so when you are looking for courses on Hamartiology you would probably find it in courses that fall under the “systematics” genre in theology.
