| Yesterday Afternoon's Bible Study |
"For ten years, Florida took monumental steps to eradicate citrus canker and failed. This bacterial disease has been responsible for destroying tens of thousands of citrus trees. Canker affects the leaves, stems, and fruit of the trees and can only be stopped when it's destroyed.
Florida's efforts have continued to be in vain because rain carries the bacteria and causes the canker to spread rapidly. Once a tree contracts this disease, it begins to destroy the tree quickly. The diseased parts must be removed immediately. Otherwise, it will destroy the entire tree and spread to nearby trees.
Citrus canker and sin are similar in their effect and end result. Once sin enters our lives, it spreads quickly, affecting our hearts and minds. Without repentance and forgiveness, it will destroy us, ultimately leading to death eternal separation from God.
Unlike canker, however, there is a solution to our sin disease. In this afternoon's verse, we read that God has already provided a sin removal system for our lives.
