God and Garbage Are Irreconcilable
IllustrationAnalogy★★★★GOD and sin are irreconcilable. The two don’t get along. It’s sort of like you and the garbage in your house. I hope you don’t get along with it too long.
At least twice a week, you take it outside because you and your garbage were not made to live together. Garbage after awhile should be designated for delivery outside of your home so it can be picked up and disposed of.
Now, more garbage will show back up again in a day or two, but hopefully you will take it back out again because you and garbage are irreconcilable. We would have a problem with people who find themselves reconcilable to garbage. Well, God and sin are irreconcilable. The two can’t meet because of the holiness of God.
He can’t be comfortable where unrighteousness is allowed to express itself freely.
The point
God and sin cannot coexist; just as garbage must be removed from a home, sin must be put away because God's holiness cannot tolerate unrighteousness.
