SIN, WE ARE FIGHTING YOU

“You never discriminate, you want everyone, the young the old the soft, the strong,”

This is the opening line in a commercial regarding the fight against cancer.  Having witnessed so many loved ones fight, suffer and lose the battle with cancer, I understand the fear when this diagnosis is handed to a family.  Cancer is no respecter of age, financial status, position or social standing…cancer does not discriminate. There are many courses of treatment, many are quite debilitating, sometimes they are successful, but there is no absolute cure.

Lately, I have watched, sadly, from the sidelines as sin wages its war against individuals and families, destroying plans, destroying lives and destroying hope. 

1Peter 5:8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.

You see, SIN DOES NOT DISCRIMINATE…It is not a respecter of age, financial status, position or social standing. Our adversary is constantly on the prowl, waiting for the most vulnerable, weakest moment to pounce.  Unlike cancer, sin has an ABSOLUTE CURE!!!  There is only ONE available treatment…It requires a BLOOD TRANSFUSION, must be applied daily and has a 100% success rate.

1 John 1:7 But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.

The last line of the commercial states, “but cancer, we are fighting you.”  Will you join me in saying, “BUT SIN, WE ARE FIGHTING YOU.”  There is HOPE; we have been given the CURE!
