Picky Sinning
I don’t believe that I am better then other people, but I really believe that I am because I don’t do the public sins. Instead I pick ones that are easy to hide and live my life in secrecy even from fellow Christians. Isn’t this whats being a Christian is all about? Choosing more discreet sins so we can look down on our Christian brothers and judge the rest of the world for not figuring this out? I’m kidding of course this is the opposite of Christianity, but it seems to be my mindset at times and the mindset of a good many other Christians I know.
This came even more full circle yesterday in the sermon as Yim was talking about how our savior being only as big as our sin.
So if we deceive ourselves into believing that our sin isn’t so great then what do we need a great savior for. If we aren’t that bad then He’s not that good. Am I coming out of left field with this line of thought? Is this just a southern thing?
