Are You Enslaved to a "Secret Sin?"

Most of us are, we just don't let others know about our "secret little" sin. Which is why 1 John 1:7-10 teaches, "...if we [really] are living and walking in the Light, as He [Himself] is in the Light, we have [true, unbroken] fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses (removes) us from all sin and guilt [keeps us cleansed from sin in all its forms and manifestations]. If we say we have no sin [refusing to admit that we are sinners], we delude and lead ourselves astray, and the Truth [which the Gospel presents] is not in us [does not dwell in our hearts]. If we [freely] admit that we have sinned and confess our sins, He is faithful and just (true to His own nature and promises) and will forgive our sins [dismiss our lawlessness] and [continuously] cleanse us from all unrighteousness [everything not in conformity to His will in purpose, thought, and action]. If we say (claim) we have not sinned, we contradict His Word and make Him out to be false and a liar, and His Word is not in us [the divine message of the Gospel is not in our hearts]."

I came across a really good article on secret sin and how our secret sins can enslave us.

Please take the time to peruse the following, and give the Spirit a chance to search your heart and life, and if you are convicted [for as much as gossiping about the preacher's kids; or stealing a pen from your employer] of anything, repent and ask God to forgive you, than "Go and sin no more!"
