You see it goes much deeper than behavior. Of course not. What we can do is be honest with God, ourselves, and one another by confessing that our bondage comes from liking sin so much, from it being our very nature. What we can do is be honest with God, ourselves and with one another that we are the ones we most often deceive. And then God who is faithful and just will take careful aim and burst our balloons of deception so that we are rescued from ourselves, although we might be stiff for a little while.
Grace can be tricky business, too.
