SIN OF OMISSION

We see sad events transpiring today: Mothers smothering children and fathers shaking babies. But if one did not do this and if they said, "I didn’t strike the baby, I just never fed the baby, I never changed a diaper. I never placed a warm blanket over the baby. I didn’t DO anything wrong." Would you buy the argument? A thousand times, no! Nor will God excuse our sins of omission.
