Dear Sin!

This was the salutation that greeted me this morning as I opened an email from one of my Romanian students. It certainly caught my attention. One can only hope that it was a mistake and the intended salutation was Dear Sir. It is attention-getting for other reasons though.

It could be that we all need to write a letter of goodbye to the sin in our lives. IT was interesting in class today as we debated if the lost are really lost or not, how many of the objections to evangelism and missions were personal issues and person distractions.



For soldiers, aren't those distractions considered the highest form of treason? Would not all or anything that robs our attention of His tasks, goals and mission be considered horribly wrong? Perhaps we all should write some Dear Sin letters and tell them goodbye!
