How close is too close?

Reflecting on something the pastor said in church last Sunday:

People often wonder what is sin, what is not sin, and "how far" they can go without something being considered sinful. Sad that we want to know how much we can get away with, and when it comes to "giving back" we want to know how little we can do to scrape by.

Sin can be likened to a flame: How near to a flame can you approach without being burned? You only know after you've gone too far.

Comments:
And yet when there is a fire burning... we all slow down and stare at it.
 
That is good stuff. I'm leaving a comment because you said to. I linked from the Relevant Boards. You probably get that a lot. Not to be anonymous, but I am not a "blogger".
