Object lesson

This morning in church Tim did an object lesson (sermon) geared towards the kids (and adults). The kids loved it. It was about sin. He had a sign on his back that said sin. So he was carrying around sin. He talked about telling a lie (example- stealing a bike). When parents ask about it, you say something like - I found it or someone gave it to me. Thus the black on your face. You are covering up the sin. then when the person that owns the bike finds you with it, you tell another lie, thus more black of sin on you.

Here he is trying to cover up the sin. No matter what you do, the sin is still there.

The only way to get rid of sin is to ask Jesus to forgive you of your sins and wash you clean. (I don't have a picture of him getting clean and rid of his sin). the kids really enjoyed this ( and I think the adults did too). Please pray with us that this will plant a seed in their hearts and then in turn they will ask for forgiveness of their sins.
