'Sin...Bringeth Forth Death'

James 1:14-15 'But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death'

Never trifle with one sin. It is like a little cloud which, as a poet has said, may hold a hurricane in grasp. The next sin you commit may have a mighty effect in the blighting of your life. You do know the streams that may flow from that fountain; for sin is a fountain-—not a mere act, but a fountain of evil. Andrew A. Bonar; 1810-1892 (brother of Horatius)
