"He who conceals his sins does not prosper." Proverbs 28.13
Our baseball coach (high school) we had strictly forbidden chewing snuff. There were a couple of players who were known to chew on the sly, and he wanted to make them the object of our attention.
And caught our attention, it is true. It was not long before everyone probásemos. An experience of manhood was to secure a scarf when the bag was passed from hand to hand over the bench. I had just been selected to join the team, and certainly did not intend to fail this test of manhood.
One day just to get into the mouth a pinch of snuff when one player said: "Here comes the coach!". Not wanting to discover me, I did what was natural: I ate it.
And I knew the meaning of the Bible portion: "My body fell through my groaning all day ...." I paid the price to hide my disobedience.
My body was not created to eat snuff. Your soul was not created to cover up sin.
"I can ask you a question honestly? Do you hide a secret that they want to know God? Take the advice of third baseman with nausea. You'll feel better if you throw up.
