The Many Ways Sin Kills

We are probably all familiar with Romans 6:23, "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." (KJV)

We often think of it just in terms of spiritual death - but sin kills so much more.

Sin can kill our testimony. Our testimony takes a lifetime to build and only minutes to destroy!
Sin can kill friendships.
Sin can kill family relationships.
Sin can kill ministries.
Sin can kill your joy.
Sin can kill close fellowship with God.

Our sin will find us out. I bet King David didn't think anyone else would know about his sin with Bathsheba...and here we are about 3,000 years later and we all know. Most of all, our sin is never hidden from God.

But the Lord Jesus Christ has given us power to walk in the spirit and with His help can overcome a lot of sin that would be in our lives. We can walk victoriously today in Jesus! 

But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh. -Galatians 5:16 NASB
I can do all things through Him who strengthens me. - Philippians 4:13 NASB
