If you look for sin...
If you look for sin you shall surely find it, and the closer you look the more you will find. But with what eyes does one analyze for sin? With the eyes of the flesh, those eyes that only see according to appearance. And what mind do you suppose analyzes this sin closely? The mind of the flesh, that mind upon which all of man's understanding has been built. But where there is no law there is no wrath, there is no punishment, there is no guilt, there is no sin. This is the life in which we have been re-created. The lie will cause you to pass such truth off being too ethereal ... and yet the truth witnesses that ethereal best describes the world that passes away as withered grass.
I copied this from a Q&A I wrote a while back. You can find the rest of the article here: This Grace Thing
