Thank you, this post is dead on.
I am so grieved at seeing people either discounting the seriousness of sin or going to terrible lengths to try to "cleanse" thenselves. Both are deadly, eternal mistakes.
All of us have become like one who is unclean,
and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags;
we all shrivel up like a leaf,
and like the wind our sins sweep us away.
Isaiah 64:6
I'm told the Greek word is actually "menstrual rags".
Greek should have been Hebrew. Duh, Old Testament. Thanks G for the ping on that.
to God be the glory...!
It’s realy simple but our pride gets in the way of the reality of our dire situation. Oh... how we need or needed Christ!
