TOPIC: DON’T SPREAD IT
TEXT: GENESIS 3:3-6
3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
Key Verse:”…she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat”*(Genesis 3:6).
MESSAGE:
Sicknesses are said to be contagious if it can easily spread from one person to the other. Dorothy went to the provision store that morning pretending she wanted to buy meat pie. As Mrs. Canny turned to serve another buyer, Dorothy picked a pack of cracker, dropped it in her school bag and quickly left the shop. She knew that she was wrong and decided to make others to share in her sin. During the school lunch time, she invited her three-best friends – Dammy, Kate and Gloria to come and share the biscuit with her. Her friends, without finding out the source, sat together and ate with her. They were later exposed and severely punished.

It is a wicked act to cause others to sin. Eve spread her sin to the husband. Adam should have asked some questions and avoid being part of his wife’s disobedience. The Bible warns us not to take part in other people’s sin (1 Timothy 5:22). Today, don’t be a careless believer. Don’t share in the sins of others. Do not agree to take part in their disobedience, stubbornness, rioting, laziness, cheating, lying and immoral friendship. Like Adam, you will be equally punished. Shun evil companions.

2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
