Sin's Bite
Look not thou upon the wine…At the last it biteth like a serpent, and stingeth like an adder. Proverbs 23:31-32
The Gaboon Viper can be as thick as one’s thigh and has the most brilliant colours--truly the most beautiful snake I have ever seen. To a child it might look like a lovely plaything! But its bite, with fangs two inches long, is deadly. All sin, like wine, looks very attractive and alluring. Young person, reading these words, have you already been bitten and are you facing the results of what you thought was just “playing around”? Thank God, through Jesus Christ who died and rose again for you, you can be saved from sin’s guilt and power, if you will only come to Him today.
--David Croudace
I’m tired of sin and straying Lord; now I’m coming home.
I’ll trust Thy love, believe Thy word, Lord I’m coming home.
--Kirkpatrick
