You shouldn’t despair, even if you’re not as you should be. Certainly it’s bad that you’ve sinned, but why do you then wrong God by regarding Him, in your ignorance, as powerless? For your sake He created the great universe which you behold, and is He then incapable of saving your soul? And if you say that this, as well as His incarnation, only makes your condemnation worse, then repent. He’ll accept your repentance, as He accepted that of the prodigal son and the harlot.

The view of many people regarding ‘good Christians’ conflicts with that of the Gospel and Holy Fathers and Mothers, that is, the Church. If ‘good Christians’ are those who apply the Ten Commandments or, at least, some moral list of what to do and what to avoid, it’s clear that the Church has a different opinion.
