Sin by any other name

"an error of judgment", mere "slip fo the tongue" or an "indiscretion" in a "moment of weakness" are actually excuses for our sins.
Today, it is popular to call sin by more 'acceptable' names.

Joseph saw sin for what it was - a serious offense against the Lord - and he did not play down the gravity of the offense. Calling sin by a softer name will change neither its offensiveness to God nor its cost to us.
