Who isn't trapped in the bonds of sin, though?
I am not trapped in the bonds of sin. I believe Jesus came to set me free.
I do fail, but I am without excuse. For there has no temptation taken me but such as is common to man, and God is faithful, who will not suffer me to be tempted above that I am able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that I may be able to bear it. (1 Corinthians 10:13)
How many are "athletes of Christ" and have accepted all suffering so that they are done with sin?
I am done with sin, but temptation is not done with me. Some day soon, though.
I want to get better at overcoming temptation. I hope that's everyone's desire, as well.
I doubt there are many Christians who rail against homosexuality that are also not still enslaved to their own passions.
So do I. I wish it were not so.
