“Sin is a spiritual and moral malignancy”
— Jerry Bridges
Simplified Meaning:
Think of sin like a disease that harms our spirit and morals. Just as a physical illness can make our body sick and weak, sin can damage our character and soul. For example, if someone constantly tells lies, eventually, they might lose trust from their friends and family. This breakdown in trust weakens their relationships, similar to how a disease weakens the body. To avoid this, it's important to act honestly and kindly, which keeps our spirit and morals healthy. By making good choices, we can prevent this 'spiritual and moral sickness' from taking hold in our lives.
