Apologetics/reflections segment:

In biblical language and thought guilt and sin are closely related. While sin usually denotes an action of personal failure (in deed, word or thought), guilt is a legal term that denotes the state resulting from this action. Guilt is an objective fact and arises when God’s standards (see Law) have not been met, when the creator’s claim on his creation is neglected or refused whether wilfully or unintentionally. According to Scripture, guilt is a universal human state and experience (Rom. 3:23). (1)

Love me some Ravi Zacharias, so today’s Kindle deal got my attention. The Grand Weaver for two bucks. (And BTW, this link is to Amazon, but if you prefer Apple or another ebook seller, go look — I think they may have the same deal).
