Sin makes the sinner blind and causes him to act foolishly. When our fallen flesh is running the show, we rationalize bad behavior and refuse responsibility for bad outcomes. In today’s message, Pastor Ed points out that many times when an offense has been made, the sinner does not understand the ramifications of their transgressions. Christ cried out from the cross, “Forgive them, for they know not what they do!” Therefore, we too should grant mercy to the lost, for they are spiritually blinded to their sin and its consequences.
