David Letterman's Last Sin?

No, these affairs of the past are not Mr. Letterman's last and final sin. Bertha Smith, a well balanced Baptist, in her book "How the Spirit Filled My Life", 1973 Broadman Press, made a stunning statement. She said that we never stop sinning all of our life. The Apostle John, in his Epistles, had the revelation that we don't make a practise of sin. He never denied that it happens.



Sin is part of our life from cradle to grave. This is hard for some people, if not many people, to accept. The truth of this brings us to trust in Jesus to take care of us. Actually, it forces us to rely on Him. We never do enough good works to justify oneself. Thankfully we don't have too.

Overly critical people and overly indulgent people are always obvious as to where they are in dealing with this salient fact of life. Those who criticize Mr. Letterman are themselves sinning in some place in their life. Jesus implied this when He gave permission to anyone in the crowd of stone throwers who was without sin (implying present tense) to go ahead and throw. The oldest left first. The truth heals but also hurts. I feel in fact we do sin all our life in that we are never live without sin in attitudes, or words, or actions. Yet, blessed said Jesus are the people who mourn.
