What you need:
- Bleach
- Iodine
- Can be purchased at Walmart, Target, CVS etc or can be ordered through Amazon at the link below
- Pvp Povidone Iodine Disinfecting Solution 4 oz
- Water
- 3 glasses – 1st glass labeled “You” – Filled with water | 2nd glass labeled “Sin” – Filled with half and half Iodine &water | 3rd glass labeled “Jesus” – Filled with 1/3 bleach and 2/3 water
Lesson:
Here I have three glass… one representing us, one representing sin and one representing Jesus.
It is easy to sin: The Bible says that “if we say that we have no sin we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us…”
Pour SIN into YOU
We don’t have the power to separate sin from us on our own
Try to grab it out
Does that mean that we are powerless or that there is nothing I can do?
When you sin, it makes it easier to sin the next time. It is easier to add one lie to another and one bad behavior to another bad behavior. The Bible though says that if we repent God will forgive us. There is a power in repentance!
Explain repentance
There is one more step though. You must be baptized in Jesus name for the “REMISSION OF SINS”. The Bible says that Jesus was the LAMB OF GOD that took away the sin of the world
Pour JESUS into YOU
The Bible also says that He placed upon Himself the sin of us all
Pour SIN into JESUS
After you get the Holy Ghost, He can help us to resist sin. WE CAN STILL SIN… WE JUST HAVE HELP TO AVOID IT
Pour SIN into YOU
God came to take AWAY THE SIN OF THE WORLD (John 1:29)
Pour JESUS into SIN
Feb 4, 2023 – This addendum came from Heidie Bryant from Murphysboro, IL!
If you add in tonic water that has quinine into the container representing us it will glow with a blacklight. So even though it is still clear/clean to everyone around you God can still see the sin. So when you turn on the blacklight it’s glowing showing the sin we are trying to hid from others. Then continue with the iodine and once the bleach water is poured in it will cancel out the quinine as well so when you turn the blacklight back on it will no longer glow with the “hidden” sin.
I don’t have the exact ratio of water to tonic water. I just played with it till I added enough tonic water for it to glow.
