A great word!
How are you a pastor but not know how to deal with sin? Why be a pastor ? Go sell cars.
Sexual sin gets a grip on people. And then you have a society today who is preaching very loudly that these are not sins. Yet sexual sin is a sin against God and has consequences in this life so people are very tortured because they are bound by this sin.
