When people rebelled against God, a supernatural substance called "dust" was introduced into the world. This dust is the source of all good things, free will in particular. The Magisterium doesn't want anyone to know about this wonderful spiritual substance. So, according to Pullman, the church wants to eliminate sin, but this is bad because sin is actually the best thing that's ever happened to people. As soon as the people in the Golden Compass story rediscover this dust and embrace its life-giving power, they will be free from the stifling oppression of the Magisterium.
