Sin Is Sinister
The Bible acknowledges it.
The psychologist rejects it.
The atheist dismisses it.
The criminal excuses it.
The opposite of perfection.
Humans fall from their high station.
The result of disobedience.
Evidence of man’s rebellion.
We are all infected with it.
No one on earth can escape it.
We are all affected by it.
Try as we might, we can’t tame it.
It not only affects humans
but also, all of creation.
It is the root cause of evil
and causes natural disasters.
Education cannot cure it.
Psychologists cannot treat it.
Surgery cannot remove it.
Home training cannot correct it.
An educated criminal,
Is still a criminal at heart.
Psychiatrists can treat madness,
but they cannot correct badness.
Governments cannot outlaw it.
Prison walls cannot contain it.
Nothing can eradicate it.
We all just have to live with it.
God has the plan to deal with it.
He gives victory over it.
Soon He will eradicate it,
by destroying Satan with it.
