Why do we see so many folks in an intermediate state then ? We see lip service to God Almighty, but the 'pedal to the metal' part is sorely lacking. How many Jesusites participate in lawsuits? Acquire wealth? Eat Fig Newtons?
I recall a sermon from when I was a kid that was something along the lines of "if Christianity were made illegal, is there enough evidence to convict you?" And now I'm seeing just how effing difficult such prosecutions would be today.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
