Acerca de esta escucha

IN his inmost heart every man seeks good and loves God. But God is great, and man is small; good is complex, while passion is simple and insistent. Hence all men forsake the good, and disobey God. This, in the concept form of philosophy, is the truth contained in the historical-pictorial representation that Adam was created holy, and subsequently fell.

External quest of goods less than the best is easily forgivable: internal habits of hugging self and pushing God and the good away, though harder to eradicate, are still forgivable.

Only the confirmed perversity that hates and despises God’s goodness when brought near in winning personal terms is unforgivable.

Punishment is the defense of social good against the perversity of the individual, and a beneficent revelation to him of the evil of his selfishness.
Forgiveness, entirely consistent with punishment, is the welcoming of the perverse person back to the God from whom he strayed, and the true good he craves.

Since sin hurts sinner, society, and God, he who forgives must share the suffering sin brings; and therefore forgiveness must ever take the form of sacrifice, whose crowning symbol is the cross of Christ.

To be complete forgiveness must be incarnate; manifested by man to man. On the other hand, whoever forgives his fellow men their trespasses can have for the asking the divine forgiveness for his own shortcomings.

The power to bind and loose, to grant a forgiveness or pass a condemnation that is ratified in heaven, inheres not in any special order or office, but in every Christian man and in every group of Christian men who have the spiritual insight forgiving love imparts.

Such in briefest outline is the doctrine of this little book. It is latent in Plato’s dialogues, and in the pleadings of the Hebrew Prophets with wayward Israel; is clearly taught in Jesus’ parables, and is embodied in his life. It is taken for granted in the best modern literature, and shines in the lives of Christian men and women. Yet, while generally accepted in fragmentary form, these truths have never been gathered into a systematic statement.

The fact that, in this year, a graduate fresh from one of our most famous seminaries could present as the teaching of his professors, and get accepted as satisfactory by a metropolitan presbytery, the statement that “Sin is that which God has permitted for the manifestation of his own glory,” is sufficient indication of the vii need of a coherent doctrine of Sin and its Forgiveness; true to the insight of Jesus and the spiritual seers, and faithful to the facts of Christian experience.
