Do you remember your first sin? I don’t either because it was too long ago. I do remember being expected to confess my sin. I had to think really hard. I said, when the door slid open, “I fought with my brother and stole cigarettes from my mother.” That seemed to satisfy the man behind the screen and I came out of that closet feeling good about myself.
You cannot live on this planet and not sin. The Scripture is clear that we have a natural bent towards sin.
Psalm 51:5
Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity,
And in sin my mother conceived me.
The good news is that Christ took the punishment for our transgressions on Calvary. Give it some thought and remember this: cigarette smoking can be hazardous in more ways than one.
