Last month a teen in Colorado displayed some poor driving that placed him in a real predicament. When he got into their family car his mistakenly put it into reverse rather than drive and pressed on the accelerator. He ended up parking the car at the bottom of the family pool. He got out easily but getting the car out was very difficult. An article that shared the story was entitled, “Going in…a bit easier than coming out.” It is interesting because we know from the Bible that getting into sin is a lot easier than getting out. In fact it is made known to us that there is nothing we can do in and of ourselves to completely address sin. The only way is through faith in Jesus Christ. Ephesians 2:8-9 reads, “8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast.
