Sin
SIN IS NOT stagnant...
It never stays in one place, person, family, community, or country. A judge may sequester a jury, and a doctor may quarantine a disease, but no man or earthly power can isolate sin. Sin stalks its victim as a hunter does his prey. Sin slithers like a snake, inserting its venom of death into the veins of those who bear the image of God. Sin marches like locusts over the landscape of humanity, leaving a world of human wreckage in its wake. Sin is a vulture feasting on its own handiwork. Adam and Eve's transgression initiated a stream of sin that proved torrential in its power and world-wide in its scope (Frank Chesser).
