Ironically, never in history have Christians so easily confessed themselves as sinners, and never in history have they become so comfortable with it!
Quote taken from Ken Schenck's book Paul: Messenger of Grace (Indianapolis: WPH, 2010), 28.
So what do you think...I think Schenck is on to something here. I hear this kind of thing a lot in certain circles. What do you do with the places where the Apostle Paul calls his readers "saints"? Are we saintly-sinners? Are we sinner-saints? Or are we poor wretched sinners? Thoughts?
