We are ALL sinners, we all know sin is wrong. There are those who chose to sin without any consideration to what is will ultimately cost them, the just live in the now.

Then there are we Christians who also know sin is wrong. But we choose to not give into our sinful nature and we know that we can only do that with the help of God. We accept Jesus’s wonderful gift of salvation and we understand that the cost of not accepting Jesus as Lord and savior will cost us everything, so we choose to live for what comes after we die, rebirth and an eternal life that will be perfect in every way.

Well said.

What concerns me a lot lately are those folks who have given their lives to their churches thinking that doing so is the same as giving their lives to God. They don't commit any of the so-called "dirty" sins (adultery, robbery, stealing, murder, and cussing), but are filled with pride over their seemingly tidy lives.

And then there are some (including some famous preachers) who are extremely proud of their knowledge of Scripture, but lack the humility that a servant would have.

Depressing and worrying.

A young woman recently informed me that since she was over 18 living in sin with her boyfriend was not a sin and it was also OK because “God loves everyone”

Being told that it was a sin apparently was “being talked down to”

Telling the truth about sin is dissing ???
