What We Believe. A number of things probably come to mind from the thought above, murder, rape, incest, sexual perversion, but these things are merely the symptoms of the disease that I have in mind. Sin is the most wicked thing in the world. Sin is more wicked than its author Satan is. Sin has the devilish spirit of Satan for its nature.
Sin is meaner than hell itself.
We often equate sin with those heinous and most terrible things named above, and attribute it to those who commit such things. Sin, my readers, is a principle, and like an untamed beast it lurks in the darkness of our being. Sin is not only found in the pervert, the rapist, the murderer. The most ardent and faithful follower of Christ is hindered and intimidated by this beast called sin. The most blinding force that shields the mind from a personal understanding of sin in the heart is self-righteousness.
