When Sin Is Felt

People can very quickly fall into doing things they could never imagine themselves doing, all it takes is a little compromise.

After the exiled Jews returned to their homeland, they began intermarrying with those outside of the Jewish nation, which they knew was forbidden.

Sometimes it takes a person on the outside looking in to help others see their errors.

Ezra was a man whose convictions to follow God ran deep and when he heard about this widespread sin he reacted so harshly that we have to take notice.

He motivates those who believe to mourn with him and to do something about it.

How do we react when we see other sin around us? Are others motivated by our reaction?
