This article deals with three representatives of Reformation theology and their teachings on sin and guilt. Sin is a theological category that expresses the relationship of man coram Deo. Luther’s teaching speaks of sin as a change in one’s status toward radical rejection of trust in God. Guilt is forgiven in the process of salvation, but as it is expressed in Luther’s teaching about simul iustus et peccator, one’s entire life remains to be repentant. In Schleiermacher’s thought, sin is a change in self‑consciousness, and guilt is not greatly emphasised. Kierkegaard presents sin as a change of subject in the individual. Guilt is part of present existence and should be constantly present in genuine repentance. These approaches have in common the avoidance of the moralization of sin.
