We all have done something that we are ashamed of. We've all hurt others and ourselves. Now sin is a tough thing to deal with. Sin, to the guy with the bow, is like a strong gusty win. Although he might try to shoot at the bulls eye, the wind can blow the arrow off course.
Sin is that same kind of constant negative force that spoils our best aim at life.
Sin can be something we do, or an attitude that we have, a place we may go, but something that provides a negative influence upon on Christian life. A negative influence upon our Christian life. It is not that we just occasionally do wrong things, but here is a deep problem that plaques us all, like a cancer, that makes us go wrong. We become defeated by sin when we have no desire or no strength to overcome it. Now, a lot of non-Christians think of Christianity as just a way of taking away all the fun in life.
