Sins Equality Quotes

“Vengeance is Mine; I will repay, says the Lord” (Romans 12:19) is one of those verses that even
people who have never picked up a Bible recognize. It’s pretty indisputable that seeking vengeance
is sinful, so no matter how natural and understandable it is to want vengeance, surely Christians
could agree it’s not the right thing to do. Right?

Well, that’s where the interesting dynamics of a Trump-devoted conservative evangelical movement
take things to the next level. In this era, sins are still sins, but they must be weighed against what are perceived to be greater concerns. In other words, almost anything these days that you would expect Christians to condemn or oppose is not condemned or opposed because, as they see it, there is a greater moral consideration that takes precedence.”
