Little Sins Are Very Dangerous!

Little sins!
(Thomas Brooks)

"Avoid every kind of evil." 
1 Thessalonians  5:22

Little sins multiplied, become great.
There is nothing less than a grain of sand--
yet there is nothing heavier than
the sand of the sea when multiplied.

Little sins are very dangerous!
A little leaven, leavens the whole lump.
A little knife, may kill.
A little leak in a ship, may sink it.

Though the scorpion is little--
yet will it sting a lion to death!
Just so, a little sin may at once
bar the door of Heaven, and open
the gates of Hell!

The least sin damn us--
if not pardoned by the death
of CHRIST!
