[From the Archives] TGC 290 — The Homogenization of Sin
Manage episode 432939953 series 2879187
We live in an age of homogenization, an age of flattening, of evening everything out. We are, it seems, no longer able to make distinctions. We see this in the culture. But before it was cool in the culture, the church had been taking part in its own homogenization process. This has happened and is still happening with how we look at and think about sin. In this episode, Stephen Preus diagnoses this flattening of sin in order to distinguish between how all sins warrant damnation from God, but not all sins have the same effect in the life of the Christian. He calls us back to the distinction made by our orthodox Lutheran fathers of mortal and venial sins.
