Paul is never shy about calling out sins in his letters. His comments on sensuality and sexuality get the most publicity, but there are plenty of comments about greed, most of which we like to gloss over, because most of us experience greed in some way, shape, or form, and that's a much more private sin. It's far easier to focus on the visible sins of others than to accept criticism of our sins.
But Christianity is a faith where the door is left open for all of us to walk through and experience the grace and mercy of Christ. We're not accepted because we're perfect -- we're accepted because Christ is perfect, and so we're called to walk in the light, in new life, and put away the sins of our past. Christ is calling -- what do you need to set down to answer with all of your heart?
