Big Brother watches

Now our sin captures us by lying to us, by blinding our consciences. You cannot hear the shouts of the people on the bank warning you of your danger when you are in the midst of the rapids, and so our sin deafens us to the still small voice of conscience.

But nothing so surely reveals to us the true moral character of any of our actions, be they right or wrong, as bringing them under Christ's eye, and thinking to ourselves, "Dare I do that if He stand there beside me and see it?"
--Alexander Maclaren
