Sins of the Mind

..."the most dangerous sins...there is nothing to keep you accountable to them except your conscience...visible sins are always preceded by sins of the mind"

Jesus said:

Matthew 21-22  "You have heard that it was said to those of old, 'You shall not murder; and whoever murders will be liable to judgement.'   But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be liable to judgement;  whoever insults his brother will be liable to the council;  and whoever says, 'You fool!' will be liable to the hell of fire."...
