Soap

Do you know what soap does? It cleanses your hands, face, and the body. But, do you realize what happens every time we use the soap? It gets smaller, smaller, and smaller. And, it eventually disappears and dies. The soap dies to cleanse us.

This is kind of like what Jesus Christ did for us to cleanse us from our sins. Jesus Christ died on the cross, so that we may be cleansed from our sins, when we trust in Him. But, unlike the soap, Jesus did not just disappear or remain dead. Because on the third day, Jesus came back from the grave to prove that Jesus has overcome the power of sin and death!


Also, when you use the soap to cleanse yourself, how often do you need to use it? Almost every day, whenever you get dirty, right? But, Jesus’s death on the cross cleanses us from our sins ONCE FOR ALL. Praise Jesus Christ!

"...you are clean, because Jesus Christ, the Passover Lamb, has died for you" 

(1 Corinthians 5:7b, Paraphrase).
