In the Word three terms are used to refer to bad actions: transgression, iniquity, and sin. Transgression is the least bad. It means a violation of what is true in an external context, a violation of what is right and orderly. Iniquity is next and denotes acts that violate more interior truths. Sin is the worst. It is a violation of what is holy and righteous, a violation against the Lord. Sin is the deepest kind of evil. Regarding iniquity -- to be in charity, or live a life of charity is to live a life where the acts and thoughts that have top priority are those that have within them a love for the neighbor. Sometimes our love of self, our inborn desire to put ourselves first, is stronger than our charity and we do something for ourselves at the expense of our neighbor, or even do harm to our neighbor. Such an act, if our motive is selfish, is an iniquity.

(Izinkomba: Arcana Coelestia 9156, 9965 [2-3])

667. "Therefore all nations shall come and worship before You." This symbolically means that people who possess the goodness of love and charity will acknowledge the Lord alone to be God.

All nations symbolize people who possess the goodness of love and charity. That this is the meaning of nations in a good sense may be seen in no. 483 above. To come and worship before Him means, symbolically, to acknowledge the Lord as God, and because there is only one God, in whom is the Trinity, and the Lord is that God, it symbolically means to acknowledge Him alone to be God.
