CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE

Verse 26: If the godly give in to the wicked, it's like polluting a fountain or muddying a spring. When a person comes to know Christ in a personal way it has far reaching impacts on the people around them. Likewise, when a believer turns away from God and rejects His love or chooses to give in to sin, it can cause great confusion for those who are influenced by that person. In this kind of situation not only is disaster flirted with personally, but the blood of those lead astray covers the hands of those leading.

Sin has many consequences. Satan never intends to take one person out, he tries to use one person to carry a virus to many. Don't fall for the trick. Stay alert, for Satan roams to and fro seeking whom he may devour.

I know this one doesn't feel as good as the others, never-the-less it's necessary to hear every now and then.

Smile, God loves you.

That's one of the biggest problems of sin. We tend to think that what we do wrong only affects us, or it doesn't affect people in the manner of leading them astray. But it always hurts others. Even when they don't know about it, it affects them through us. Generally this happens because it changes your attitude.
