3 Letter Word

8/13/12 We all get so hung up on 4 letter words. PROFANITY! It “rings” in school hallways. It’s on TV----sometimes just to get laughs. Too often, profanity blasphemes the name of the Lord. It’s all too easily accepted---freedom of speech is the claim. To me, it’s sin. That’s the 3 letter word that causes the most harm. 

Result of sin---separation from God.

Even Dictionary.com defines sin as willful or deliberate violation of some religious or moral principle. Where are the moral principles? Nowadays, many sins seem acceptable. World “thinking” condones it. It’s celebrated on front pages of newspapers and even “above the fold”, which all journalists know gives it credence, of sorts. No matter how we try to water it down, or blast its acceptance on airways and through cyberspace, sin is still sin. Sin’s acceptance is man’s viewpoint and has become a way of life. Don’t be fooled. It’s not God’s way. It’s still that 3 letter word that can have a negative impact on one’s life.

Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ. (Colossians 2:8)
