"Of course, God will forgive me; that's his business!" Those flippant words were written by the nineteenth century German author, Heinnich Heine. Such a statement reveals a lack of understanding about the seriousness of sin. Where do sins go after they are committed? They go out into the world as evil consequences. Consequence comes from the Latin term "consequi," meaning to follow after. A consequence is a result that follows after an action, an effect flowing from a cause.
