As for sin am I  just one of the runners and riders.

From what does all of this stem.

Paul could safely describe himself of the greatest of sinners .

Nobody did or would believe the Saint.

We cannot in this race be winners.

It all smells of cant.

I’m on the foothills of sin.

A sort of mediocre sinner .

Certainly a lot worse than him.

But better than many another.

Better not to be outstanding in anything.

Even the pleasure of sinning.

……….

Mediocre sin

Is usually just our lot

But better that way

……….

See 1 Timothy 1: 15 -17
