Sin – the Most Important Focus?

Sin looks a lot different when you still believe in or love the sinner. You’ll find yourself justifying or trying to understand the sin, vilifying the accusers, and highlighting the other good things about the sinner.

So is sin really the most important focus … or is it love and believing in someone’s best yet to come?

And how much of that matters when millions of people in the future might be affected by those sins because of your lack of justice and tinted glasses?

So often when we hear about sin, we match the word up to our list of what’s right and wrong. What if we matched it up to Jesus — would he do this? I think this is a better plumb line because we look at actions with more understanding into the heart behind them than holding up a cold list.
