“Repentance for past crimes is just and easy; but sin-no-more’s a task too hard for mortals…” Sir John Vanbrugh
I am caught a bit off balance by the lack of a man marching with a sign “Repent Now, the End is Near.” As long as I saw those signs I took heart that if there was some serious repenting to do, it would certainly take a great deal of time to accomplish, so the end couldn’t really be that near.
