Interestingly we had a sermon at our recent evangelistic services on that very text in Proverbs 28:13,’He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.’

As coming from the APA perhaps the quote should say:

“Admitting to part of a lie [when caught in it and a majority of the people do not accept it] does not help to relieve guilt, and may even increase anxiety and shame. Coming completely clean is the best approach.”

“Ok, cheating another person, and . . .”

The APA used to see homosexuality as a shameful practice people should feel guilty about, but now it is portrayed as moral and innocent. If this behavior was still viewed as immoral, people may still practice it in the closet with partial confessions when confronted, but some would come clean and go to a self-help group like “Homosexuals Anonymous” (I made this up). Now there is no reason to come clean because this lie is winning in the halls of the APA, along with many others.

Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. (Rom. 1:25, KJV)
