Leaven or yeast makes dough rise. A little of it as compared to the quantity of flour, is required to transform a dense mass of dough into a well-risen loaf of bread. In like manner a little leaven of sin in the life of a single believer has the capacity to corrupt an entire congregation. Defilement of any kind should never be condoned in the Church of God. Beloved, the extent of the problem of little sin must never be underestimated. Little sin breeds big corruption.

There is no day that passes under the sun without the Lord loading us with benefits. This understanding is needful so that we can live in constant expectation of these benefits and praise God accordingly as we take delivery of them. They that seek the Lord shall not want any good thing. The Lord preserves our lives. He protects us, our property and our possessions. He provides for us and gives us perfect peace.

The scripture debunks annihilationism otherwise known as the doctrine of conditional immortality: the idea that a human soul is not immortal unless it is given eternal life. This satanic doctrine asserts that God will eventually destroy or annihilate the wicked, leaving only the righteous to live on in immortality. But the Bible teaches that all souls are immortal: "And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into eternal life” - Matthew 25:46.

Worldly pleasure is a fleeting experience and those that partake of it shall soon find themselves in the chambers of death. There is no profit for any man that seeks to enjoy life in this world at the detriment of his own soul. Those given to sinful pleasure are dead while they live: their love for pleasure is more than their love for God. Life in this world, no matter how sweet, is only for a moment.

Whenever a branch is trimmed off a live tree it usually withers because it is no longer connected to its source of nutrients. The branch is never meant to be independent of the tree. Branches are expected to bear fruits, but they cannot perform this function if they are separated from the tree. In order words, without the tree, the branches cannot bear fruits.
