Dog

I clearly remember an incident where our dog threw up on the living room floor. My wife was gagging when she called out for me to get something to clean it up. I responded, “Why? She’ll come around later and lick it clean.” That answer was truthful, but certainly not appreciated. However, it always amazed me from my youth as to how a canine can regurgitate and return some time later and lap it all back up. Does that make you nauseous? Well, here is something that will.

2 Peter 2:22

What the true proverb says has happened to them: “The dog returns to its own vomit, and the sow, after washing herself, returns to wallow in the mire.”

Don’t be barking up the wrong tree, for it does more than make you sick. Instead, stand in awe of the tree from which the cross erected at Calvary was made, that one our Savior died on, for it can make us whole, free us from the disease called sin.  After that look, don’t return to false doctrines.  Give it some thought.
