In this excerpt, Thomas Schreiner explains why many Christians today have a diminished seriousness about sin.
He argues that one major reason is the neglect of the Old Testament, which powerfully reveals the holiness of God. While the New Testament also teaches holiness, it assumes a prior understanding shaped by the Old Testament. Without that foundation, our view of sin becomes shallow and casual, lacking the weight and gravity Scripture intends.
