The insidiousness of subtle sin

By: Perkins, Ricky

The Christian life is often portrayed as a battle against overt, scandalous sin, yet the greatest threat to spiritual vitality may not be the public fall, but the quiet, constant erosion of the soul. This book, "The Insidiousness of Subtle Sin," is an exploration of that quiet danger.

This constitutive work, not criticism or judgment. Its sole purpose is to be enlightening and edifying, a helpful companion for the conscientious reader. We will trace the ancient concept of the "sin which doth so easily beset us" (Hebrews 12:1), examining the original Greek term eupariastos to uncover the nature of sin that is perfectly tailored to an individual's unique weakness.

By comparing the teachings of the New Testament with compelling Old Testament narratives-from the pride of King Saul to the self-pity of Elijah-this work seeks to increase your awareness of the subtle sins of attitude, motive, and omission. You will learn how spiritual pride, envy, self-absorption, and lack of watchfulness manifest, both in the ancient world and through the highly personalized vectors of modern technology.

The goal is not to condemn, but to equip you with the clarity and vigilance necessary to lay aside every weight and run the spiritual race with endurance. The power of subtle sin lies in its secrecy; this book aims to bring it into the light.
