Today, we read about murder of John the Baptist by Herod. This story reveals that sin is like a cancer disease, as such, grows and affects the entirety of a person. It's strange how something that started as a little mistake or 'human weakness' spread and become a major weakness and how it is also multiplied and gave birth to many more. The killing of John was the effect of what started as a little weakness in Herods life. It began as a lust for his half brother's wife, Herodias. This little dot of sin could have been dusted off by simply rebuking himself, but he allowed it to grow into adultery and divorce of his own wife. "Do not offer the parts of your body to sin, as instruments of wickedness, but rather offer yourself to God, as those who have been brought from death to life, and offer the parts of your body to him as instruments of righteousness" (Rom 6:13).As u look into your life, is there any sin that is lurking there? Don't let it be cancerous, and don't say you will fix it up later, this is the right time to nip it off before it over takes you. Sin is not a friend to be entertained. Purge it out or it will spread into your life and give birth to more sins. (May God help us to be free from sin and help us to live a righteous life in Jesus name) if you believe say AMEN.
