See No Evil: The Existence of Sin in an Age of Relativism
By Harry L. Poe
SYNOPSIS
We live in a culture confused about sin. In the prevailing spirit of tolerance and religious pluralism, all beliefs must receive equal weight -- that is, unless such beliefs result in " obvious" evil like terrorist attacks on innocent people, inhumane treatment of prisoners, or defrauding stockholders of their rightful earnings. In a culture that scorns absolutes, yet apparently reserves the right to have them, how do we effectively communicate the reality of sin and the good news of the gospel? Harry Lee Poe suggests that we must understand sin as more than a violation of God's laws. It is also a breaking of the relationship between God and people that results in an ever widening gulf between the two. Salvation through Jesus restores a relationship with God, closes the distance, and enables people to understand God as goodness itself -- and reflect his goodness in the world.
DEDICATION
To David S. Dockery who is much less appropriate than many people I know to have a book on sin dedicated to him.
