TOPIC: Just A Little Sin
Bible Reading: – 2 Kings 5:21-22
This morning I will like to share a story that I read about a man, and from the story we will learn lesson that will change our life for good. Now listen to the story the man said:
“I love eating seafood especially crabs”. He loves every aspect of it from cracking the soft shell to the distinct taste it has. Unfortunately for him, he was allergic to crab. It took him a while to find out, but after similar ‘ugly’ experiences he knew.
Much as he loves crabs, he had to stop eating them permanently many years ago, why? To him, he discovered he was looking like “Frankenstein’s Bride” with puffed up eyes and swollen lips each time he found himself eating it.
Not too long ago, he became adventurous and decided to eat “a little” just to see it he was still allergic. It turned out that he was certainly allergic and he had to hide indoors for days because of that.
Like our verse says, sin is enjoyable. The truth is, it is easier to do the wrong thing than to do the right, but every Christian should be allergic to sin.
The benefits of holiness far outweigh the consequences of sin. God forgives us our sins when we confess them, but like David and many others in the Bible, we must sometimes suffer the dire consequences of such sins.
As Christians, we sometimes suffer and look like fools for living righteously, but we must never forget, just a little sin can cause a whole lot of trouble. Gehazi’s sin caused him leprosy.
THOUGHT: A LITTLE SIN, BIG PRICE
