To Be Perfectly Politically Correct
People are paranoid about sin: it is common: all do it, except Jesus and Mary, even Joseph, though we don't know what, did it at some point of his life. Its commonality in no way makes it attractive however, that is one of its lures. People that are hooked or just now attracted to the bait here leave the ideas of the phobic behind. Christ did not condemn the sinner is the message we want you to hear then. There is forgiveness and Conversion - our only reaction to sin need be our rejection of it. All fear and hate is gone. Once you are convinced it is wrong, remember you did it, forget about it, forgive people, forgive. Our Lord saves. He wants us to catch sinners too. Love is His net. I am caught so I am free from sin. Salvation comes from Him. We need not be afraid. That our Maker and our Judge has no memory of our sin - those people who dwell on it are wrong. " so have no fear of them; for nothing is covered up ... fear him who can destroy both soul and body. Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? ... but whoever denies me before others, I will also deny before my Father in heaven. " Matt. 10:26-33 - the words of the Master NRSV
