My dad always says, "families disfunction around secrets". It is true that Satan functions best in the dark. Whatever is hidden from others is never hidden from God or Satan. God is calling us to live and walk in the light. Satan wants us to live in the darkness of secret sin.
None of us are perfect. We all have regrets. I don't know of anyone who doesn't have something that they are truly embarrassed and ashamed about. Yet, those things don't have to remain secret. And those secrets no longer have to erode our faith and keep us from living in the light of the truth! Paul murdered Christians! He became the leading evangelist to the Gentiles.
Paul's appeal is easy to understand, hard to do. Listen. "We renounce shameful secret things, not walking in deceit or distorting God's message, but commending ourselves to every person's conscience in God's sight by an open display of the truth."
Choose to live in the light.
