Calling a Spade a Spade

What happens when we relabel sin to make it sound less serious? In this episode of So True, Pastor Philip De Courcy warns that redefining sin doesn’t change its reality—it only blinds us to the truth and deepens our guilt. From Isaiah 5:20, we’re reminded that God pronounces woe on those who call evil good and good evil.Like King Saul’s excuses in 1 Samuel 15, our attempts to whitewash disobedience with good intentions only reveal rebellion. The solution isn’t redefining sin but confessing it—because sin can’t be whitewashed, but it can be washed white by the blood of Christ.Key Scripture: Isaiah 5:20Visit our website Connect with us
