“…fallen man is not simply an imperfect creature who needs improvement: he is a rebel who must lay down his arms.”
-C.S. Lewis
The good news of sin is that it is a diagnosis that provides the stark reality as to what is wrong with us, can be repented of, left behind, and thoroughly cured by a transfusion of Jesus’ blood. Where else in the world would we find such hope? Can we not, in our critical condition, with our veins attached to poison IV’s, listening to the fading sound of our own beeps, open our eyes and see that the world, in all its wisdom, hasn’t provided one lasting remedy to what is making us sick?
But, the pathology of sin is that it’s first symptom is blindness.
