GOSPEL NUGGET 606

The Gospel According To The Corona Virus
* First, Corona demonstrates to us that we live in a fallen world.
* Second, Corona draws us to the pervasiveness of sin. Just as the virus is pandemic so sin is pandemic. It's everywhere. It has affected us all.
* Third, Corona depicts to us our helplessness. Just as humanity right now is helpless against the virus so we are helpless and powerless to save ourselves from sin.
Just as Corona drove us to look for a cure so the fact that we are helpless and powerless against sin should make us look to the Cure that God has provided for us all --- the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.
But first things first --- you will only look for a cure from Corona if you are, first of all, troubled and distressed by Corona.
In the same way, we can only genuinely look to the Savior if we are, first of all, bothered, upset, distressed and brought to despair to the reality of sin in our lives.
If such is your case, then come to the Savior my friend. He died for your sins and was raised from the dead. Come to Him and find salvation from the deadliest plague of all --- sin.
