Jan 19 – What Ever Happened to Sin?

Undertakers are now called morticians. Janitors are now called custodians, and garbage men are referred to as sanitary engineers. Those, and other name changes are apparently intended to rid those respectable occupations of a supposed lack of dignity. But in spite of the new titles, the work is the same. Another word that is being pushed aside is the little word “sin.” We are embarrassed by it, think it’s old fashioned and politically incorrect. Some are more comfortable admitting mistakes, errors or lapses of judgment. Anything but sin. but the reality is that sin is still sin- a transgression of God’s laws. The Bible does some straight talking that cuts through our little word games. It reminds us- “Be sure your sin will find you out,” and “the soul that sins shall die.” The prudent acknowledge sin’s reality and ask God’s forgiveness. I urge you to stop playing word games with God. Admit your sin and turn to Jesus Christ, the answer to the sin question.
