Step 4 of “Do you rebel?” is based on Isaiah 1:16-17, where Isaiah says to stop doing evil. To help make the point of what “stop” means tell the following joke (as told to me by an officer friend from Ft Worth).A cop stops a man for running a stop sign and the subject gives the cop a lot of grief explaining that he did stop.
After several minutes, the cop explained to the gentleman that he didn't stop, he just slowed down a little.
The gentleman said 'Stop or slow down, what's the difference?'.
The cop pulled the guy out of the car and started hitting him with a nightstick and then said, 'Would you like for me to stop or just slow down?'
When the Lord tells us to stop sinning, He means for us to stop, and not just slow down.
P.S. Site statistics for February were down from January's numbers. Total visitors dropped by a third, and the number of users who visit the site more than once in the month dropped from 82 to 62, down about 25%. Hmmm?
