I pray that Hank would take some of his own advice and stop using his experience as a basis for interpreting Scripture. Do not withhold good from those who deserve it when it is in your power to act. I'll give it tomorrow' when you now have it with you. Frankly, I agree. But I must say what Hank is doing is worse, since he's gone beyond peer pressure and autosuggestion.
Hank tells people they have to sin, making it a doctrine.
There's only one thing more painful then learning from experience, and that is not learning from experience. If we do learn anything about sin from experience it should be that that the consequences are to be feared. I have left their streets deserted, with no one passing through. Then her dwelling would not be cut off, nor all my punishments come upon her. But they were still eager to act corruptly in all they did.
