Zechariah 5:1-11
March 16th 2025, Third Holy Day of the Month
Rev. Tadashi Nagae, Pastor
First, God does not overlook sin and certainly judges it. The law was written on a huge scroll, and those who were against God’s law were declared to be judged. It is also the same today, anyone can read God’s Word, but if we do not believe and obey it, we will be judged.
Second, God will eventually remove sin and build a new world. The woman symbolized sin, and she was put into an ephah basket and taken to Babylon.
In the same way, the world is full of sin now, but the LORD will eventually remove sin and build a new kingdom of God.
In light of the above, how should we walk?
First, we must beware of sin and stay away from it. Satan tempts us and leads us to sin. And sin spreads easily. We need to beware of it.
Second, we must be loyal to God and obey him to the end. How many Christians have lost their faith and fallen away from God and the church? Let that not happen! Let us be loyal to God and obey him to the end!
<The Word of the Bible>
And he said, ”This is wickedness.” And he thrust her back into the basket, and thrust down the leaden weight its opening.
Zechariah 5: 8 (English Standard Version)
