     | 7,377 views

    WHY DO WHAT'S RIGHT? 1. With sin, sometimes we feel like we’re getting away with it. - Having no immediate, embarrassing, catastrophic punishment or consequence fall on us emboldens us to do it again. We begin to become callous. - There is a fear that first time that abates a little each time ...read more
