Confession Is Not Enough
Table of contents for Carrie Prejean
It’s a given part of human nature. Each and every one of us have sinned. We’ve all “fallen short” to use the concept that Paul uses in the book of Romans.
However, the fact that we all sin is not an excuse for sinning. The grace that God gives us to triumph over any sin is not an excuse to sin more. This is the thrust of the argument that Paul made to the Romans close to 2000 years ago.
So every time I hear someone who was caught doing something wrong saying “I know it’s wrong, but I have a long way to go” in an effort to diffuse a situation, I shake my head.
The whole point of the Christian faith is repentance—a change of direction.
