While we are called to be light and salt to this world, and to be in it while not being of it (Jesus said these things, not me), I am saddened by the approach of some I see reflected in the limited Biblical understanding of fallen human nature. We are not "made" a certain way by God, with total endorsement of all our personal desires and preferences. Sin has corrupted what was made perfect. We are all born broken. To pretend that I or any of us can do whatever we desire, while attributing those choices to God's allowing or pre-forming, ignores the Word of God. "We [all] daily sin much, and indeed deserving nothing but punishment." But God brings forgiveness to the repentant. By the Holy Spirit's work, we can and must love our fellow sinners, for we have been forgiven much.
