SIN LEADS TO DESTRUCTION
Key Text: Proverbs 14:12 KJV - There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.

Small or big, every sin leads to destruction and death. The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The wages of sin is death. In His wisdom, the just and righteous God has determined to punish every sinner in hell fire, except they repent. The type of sin committed does not really matter; lying and murder will attract the same judgment - eternal destruction. Therefore, to escape the judgment of God, you must be born again.

Sometimes we lie to avoid punishment, or we lie to make profit, or we lie to protect our family and friends, but all liars shall end up in hell fire Revelation 21:8. Sin is deceitful and destructive although it may bring some immediate gain or protection. At salvation we receive the power to live the victorious Christian life. Always examine yourself to see if you're still in the faith.

Thank God for His gift of eternal life through faith in Jesus Christ, our Lord. There is hope for the living but tomorrow maybe too late for unrepentant sinners. If you are not yet saved, acknowledge, confess and forsake your sins, then ask God for forgiveness and pardon. The Lord is waiting for you to return to Him. Whatever your sin, humble yourself in prayer before the Lord and He will have mercy upon you.

Prayer: O Lord, save my soul and grant me the power to live the victorious Christian life, in Jesus' name. Amen. 

Reflection: Abstain from all appearance of evil - 1 Thessalonians 5:22.
