Outline
Hook: How can a person guilty of adultery and murder be called "a man after God's heart"?
I. SIN
"Whatever weakens your reasoning, impairs the tenderness of your conscience, obscures your sense of God, or takes away your relish for spiritual things – that to you becomes sin, however good it is in itself.” - Susanna Wesley
II. REPENTANCE
"In the Christian life our primary task isn’t to avoid sin, which is impossible anyway, but to recognize sin and repent.” – Eugene Peterson
Takeaway: The entire life of a Christian is repentance.
