Sin: Keeping Up Appearances

Contributed by Peter Loughman on Mar 18, 2007

Are we more concerned about appearing Christian than we are with being a Christian. How far will we go to keep a Christian reputation and hide our sin?

A rather pompous deacon was endeavoring to impress upon a class of boys the importance of living the Christian life. "Why do people call me a Christian?" the man asked. After a moment’s pause, one youngster said, "Maybe it’s because they don’t know you." I wonder…..could that be said of us? ...read more

"The Subtle Sin Of Codependency"

Contributed by Jerry Depoy on Jul 31, 2008

We might assume that Eve wanted to know evil, however, was that her primary motive? It is my opinion that Eve wanted to become “God” so that she could be good, not necessarily so that she could be evil! And that is a subtle thought!
