Truth Taught:
Even a little sin ruins what is good and separates us from God.
Materials:
Slices of bread, green food coloring
Instructions
- Before the lesson, place green food coloring on a few slices of bread. Allow the color to seep in, resembling mold.
- In front of the students, pretend to make a sandwich with the bread. Express disgust when you discover the “moldy” slices.
- Explain: This is like sin. Just as the mold ruins an otherwise good sandwich, even a small amount of sin damages our lives and separates us from God.
- Define sin for the students, making it clear that sin is disobeying God and missing His perfect standard for our lives.
