I warned you that western theology is throughly legalistic in its language.
However, isn't a voluntary failure to obey the law nothing more than a rejection of the lawgiver? I don't see how this isn't two ways of describing the same thing.
Our Lord Jesus Christ remninds us that of our relationship with God and His "Laws," more precisely, Commandments: love thy God with all your heart and mind and soul; and your neighbor as thyself.
When we are converted in our heart, we fall in love and "obey" God out of love, not as a legal obligation.
