What If We Look at Sin Like We Look at Covid-19?

....In many ways, our experience reminds us of the very first “virus” to infect this world. Like COVID-19, sin didn’t appear deadly when it was first discovered in heaven. Sin didn’t even appear that deadly when it arrived on earth, “quarantined” at a single tree. But as sin began to spread from the serpent to Eve to Adam and their descendants, it quickly grew into something that was entirely out of control.

Unfortunately, in contrast to the world’s response to COVID-19, most of us aren’t too concerned about the spread of sin. We aren’t too worried about testing our lives by God’s Word and searching our hearts. We see the symptoms – selfishness, anger, pride – seeping into everything we do. But we ignore those symptoms. We enjoy sin, we play with it, we joke about it, anything but trying to purge it from our lives at all cost.

What if we did things differently? What if we treated sin as if it was COVID-19?

Psalm 139:23-24 encourages us to submit ourselves to a diagnostic test. “Search me, O God, and know my heart; try me, and know my thoughts. And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.” God is longing for us to know our true condition and seek spiritual healing. His heart yearns for us to be cleansed and purified. We are all under quarantine here on earth, but one day soon this quarantine will end and Jesus will come to take us home. When He does, will we be ready?
