I believe the answer is:

grace

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'freedom from sin' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both human attributes as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'good people' is the wordplay.
'good' becomes 'g' (abbreviation).
'people' becomes 'race' (people can mean a national group or race).
'g'+'race'='GRACE'

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for grace that I've seen before include "Elegance of movement" , "kindness" , "melodic decoration" , "Elegance; girl's name" , "Charming quality" .)
