TOPIC: *THE STING OF SIN KILLS*
"And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" Mark 15:34.
*MESSAGE*
Sin is like venom that spreads through the body system of it victim with high velocity. Sin is a sting; it kills! How do we know?
Look at the above text, one may want to ask: Could what Jesus was saying be really true? Wasn't this the same Jesus that the Father Himself proclaimed as his Beloved Son? (Mark 1:11, 9:7). Didn't He confirm that He is truly the Son of God by the many healings that He performed? Didn't demons bear witness that He's the Son of God? (Mark 5:2, 6-7; 8:29). Yet, what He said was true! In fact, all He said we're prophesied.
But what happened? Sin was found in Him! "For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin..." (2 Corinthians 5:21a). Just before our sin was poured into Him by God, He was a Beloved Son, but the moment our sin settled down on Him, He became irritating and disgusting even to God. He was no longer the person God used to know. He became corrupt, perverted and filthy. For that period of time, God could not acquaint with Him, why?
His eyes are too holy to behold iniquities! Jesus had to die and resurrect a new person to finally become the eternal hero of God. He took the sinful nature and body crucified on the Cross to the grave and burried it there. Then He resurrected as a new person on the third day. For he that is dead is freed from sin (Romans 6:7). And guess what? He did it for you!
*ACTION POINT*
?️ Do you still toy with sin? It brings nothing but death! And the only way out is to run to Calvary while you can and plead for mercy and the cleansing blood.
*ACTION POINT*
Isaiah 53:6b; 1 Corinthians 15:56.
*PRAYER POINTS*
1. Thank you oh Lord for the privilege of this morning in the name of Jesus;
2. Please help me Lord to see my woe and emptiness in the name of Jesus;
3. From this day onward I want to live a sin-free life in the name of Jesus.
