Accident or abomination?

When Isaiah saw the Lord, he was painfully aware of his own sin. "Woe to me!" he cried. "I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the Lord Almighty." (Isaiah 6:5)
When we see the brilliance of God's glory, we see more clearly the darkness of our own sin.
We saw it was an accident, but God says it was an abomination.
We saw it was a blooper, but God says it was a blunder.
We say it was a case of confusion, but God says it was corruption.
We say it was a deficiency, but God says it was depravity.
We say it was an error, but God says it was evil.
Help me, Lord, to see sin as You see it.

NAMB considering removal of president

The executive committee of the board of trustees of the North American Mission Board of the Southern Baptist Convention is considering removing its president, Dr. Geoff Hammond, for "insubordination," according to a report in The Christian Index. The executive committee meets on August 11, but the full board may meet with them to make the decision.
I rotated off the board of trustees of NAMB last year. Having served as a trustee, I know how agonizing this situation must be. Dr. Hammond and the trustees need our prayers for wisdom, that God will be glorified through this situation.
