Author: Jimmy Akin

Jimmy was born in Texas, grew up nominally Protestant, but at age 20 experienced a profound conversion to Christ. Planning on becoming a Protestant seminary professor, he started an intensive study of the Bible. But the more he immersed himself in Scripture the more he found to support the Catholic faith, and in 1992 he entered the Catholic Church. His conversion story, "A Triumph and a Tragedy," is published in Surprised by Truth. Besides being an author, Jimmy is the Senior Apologist at Catholic Answers, a contributing editor to Catholic Answers Magazine, and a weekly guest on "Catholic Answers Live."

  1. I would advise against putting words in Jesus’ mouth.

    This is a principle that is reflected, for example, in Jesus’ teaching that if you look at a woman to lust at her… deliberately. (emphasis Jimmy’s)

    Actually Jesus said it is a sin to look at a woman to lust at her. Period.
    Those sins that manifest themselves in unguarded moments when the mind wanders are the kind of sins that should frighten us most of all. They are a window into the kind of person we really are, at our core. The corrupt man within that is only superficially tamed through discipline.

  2. If one looks at a woman for the express purpose of lusting at her, that would be a deliberate act. Jimmy’s use of the word “deliberately” was redundant, but he probably used it to differentiate the sin (the act of deliberately lusting at her) from the temptation to lust. He put no words in Jesus’ mouth.

  3. WHAT’S YOUR QUESTION? WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO ASK?
    Well, there is one concerning The Fields of Trenzalor and the Fall Of The Eleventh. The first question. The question that must never be answered. Hidden in plain sight. The question you’ve been running from all your life…
