The solutions men come up with for the problems we face in life often create greater problems rather than truly solving anything. Take for instance this guy:
NEW BEDFORD, Mass. – Fire officials in New Bedford, Mass., say a man using a blowtorch to melt ice on his back porch ended up setting his house on fire, causing up to $30,000 in damage.
Kruger says the man was using a torch hooked up to a 20-pound propane cylinder. He got too close to the building’s wood frame and ignited the vinyl siding. The fire quickly spread into the building’s second- and third-floor apartments.
It took 25 firefighters to subdue the blaze that damaged bedrooms in the upstairs units, and caused damage to the structure and wiring.
It seems logical, fire will melt the mass of snow. While this is a sad but funny story, the solutions men come up with to deal with sin are no better, while the plan of salvation God has created through sending his Son to die for our sins seems too simple or too radical. Don’t burn your life down while trying to deal with your sin in your own way, turn to Christ for forgiveness and live!
Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord”
