“blame someone else”

We have been looking at self-control as the foundation of all civic and political liberty. Living as we do in a time when such liberty is eroding at alarming rates, we need to make sure that when we run our spiritual inventories we do not do what sinners always love to do, which is to blame someone else.

  1. we do not do what sinners always love to do, which is to blame someone else.

    Well said Doug, well said. Grin. Snort. Chuckle. ROFLMAO.

  2. No, no, let’s break this one down:
    “self-control as the foundation of all civic and political liberty” = Pastoral control is the foundation of all civic and political
    “Liberty is eroding” = I’m no longer free to plagiarize
    “our spiritual inventories” = Scapegoats and sycophants
    “we do not do what sinners always love to do” = And Doug is not a sinner, so when he does it, it isn’t shameful
    “which is to blame someone else” = OOoooh! Look! Evil TATTOOS!

    See? Makes perfect sense.
