From Steve’s Library 11/12/2004

Guys I don’t know what’s going on in your life and you don’t know what’s going on in mine. But I can tell you this, if either one of us is playing around with hidden sin, it’s eventually going to come out. You can count on it. Your sin will find you out.

You’ve got an accelerator and you’ve got a brake. When it comes to sin, you need to hit the brake. You need to stop, now. Put on a bumper sticker that says, “I brake for hidden sin.” Because if you don’t, you’re going to find yourself a lot further down the road of destruction than you ever planned on going. And it’s tough, so agonizingly tough to ever come back.

You can take this to the bank. No matter how alluring the sin looks right now, it will wind up costing you more than you’re willing to pay.
