O ~ Issac lied just like Abraham. Like father like son - same lie - even same name - different time, different place. It's amazing that in a foreign place they recognized that adultery was a great sin that would affect the whole nation.
A ~ Not only have we lost the concept of sin, we have lost the understanding of great sin. Some sins are greater than others, and even the New Testament teaches that sexual sin is worse than others. In a world where we have forgotten this truth, we also have forgotten the connection of sin and consequences. This guilt has come upon our land.
P ~ Lord, may we see again that adultery is great sin, and in doing so, may You keep us from it.
