We live in a culture that says, its ok to cross the line as long as you don't go too far. My favorite example as of late is the good ol' speed limit. My sister, who is learning to drive with her permit, actually believed that it is legal to go 5 miles over the speed limit and illegal to go more than 5 miles under. I'm not saying I haven't and don't still do this. I often find myself setting my speed for about 5 miles over because it's 'ok'. I'm not going 20 miles over, it's no big deal. But is that truth?
Is that attitude not the very same attitude that leads us to say it's ok to cross the line in other areas of our lives?
