The worst part of sin is its hiddenness.

The worst part of sin is its hiddenness. It hides everywhere under the pretense that it is something natural, that it is something unavoidable, and that the power, gravity, or tragedy of life is expressed by it. If we are witnesses here of Christ's fate, our eyes are opened wide to this pretense.
