Sin is increasing

I realize that the good old days weren't entirely good, though it certainly seems like our culture is worse now than it used to be in some ways in terms of fidelity, even though there was infidelity in the past. But perhaps it is better in other ways in terms of racism, even though racism still exists too. If you feel like sin has increased in the world, no matter how you may define that, you can take solace from from Paul who tells the Romans, "Sin has increased but grace has far surpassed it" (5:20). God's grace is always capable of overcoming evil for those open to God's grace and I suspect that anyone who is coming back to this simple blog periodically is the kind of person that is open to God's grace and will be instrumental in overcoming evil in their world.
