“They have all turned aside, they have together become corrupt;
there is none who does good, no, not one.”
Psalm 14:3 

In our politically correct society, nobody wants to use the word “sin.” Instead, people come up with excuses for wrong behavior or they try to make the wrong behavior “righteous.” The “experts” continually tell us that people can’t help what they do. If someone murders another person, it’s because they grew up in a dysfunctional home. If someone lies and cheats it’s because they live in poverty.

We live in an age where everyone makes excuses for their behavior. An abusive husband who verbally and physically manhandles his wife will blame her for his actions because she “pushed” him into it. A person who steals will blame his environment and his position in life for the crime. What excuses do have for your sin?
