Day 54

February 23rd

Leviticus 20-22.  “Calling Sin ‘Sin’”
Homosexuality.  Bestiality.  Adultery.  Incest.  These are terms that when mentioned can bring a look of disgust or shock upon our face.  Are we allowed to talk of such things?  Are we allowed to say such things are wrong, violently wrong?
We are being inundated from our culture with the idea that we should not stand and loudly label certain things as sin.  We are taught that inwardly you may believe what you would like, but don’t outwardly express your disdain for moral depravation.  
We’re tutored into reasoning that black and white standards are gone and gray is the norm.  Yet, God’s Word has never looked very gray to me.
Furthermore, we must understand that calling sin what it is, will be what leads us to the salvation of God.  Until we understand our need for salvation, we will not be looking for it.  Paul said, “I would not have known what sin was except through the law” (Rom. 7:7).  “For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord” (Rom. 6:23).
