One day I was talking to Cora. She prayed for me because she believed I was blind to sin, wanting me to kneel and pray too, because people to whom sin is just a matter of words, to them salvation is just words too.
The quote reflects a conversation between the narrator and Cora, who expresses concern for the narrator’s spiritual blindness. Cora believes that the narrator is oblivious to their own sins and encourages them to kneel and pray, suggesting that there is a deeper significance to sin beyond mere language. This indicates her belief in the profound nature of faith and repentance.
Moreover, Cora’s perspective highlights a dichotomy between those who perceive sin as trivial and those who view it as a serious moral concern. The implication is that for individuals who dismiss sin as simply a concept, their understanding of salvation will also be superficial, ultimately reducing it to mere words without genuine meaning or commitment.
