I watched with fascination as workers from the Grant Tower Company dismantled each section of the transmitter tower. The powerful radio signal had been sent up a 1” copper tube inside a 4” protective steel pipe. At each joint and throughout the 20’ sectors, nylon spacers kept the copper from getting too near the outside pipe and ruining the signal. A major lightning strike had blown out a transmitter bay and “fried” the transmission line at every weak joint, dirty connection, and worn spacer. A little preventive maintenance just might have kept that radio station on the air. Much as that transmission line had fallen into disrepair, the Corinthian church was becoming susceptible to destructive forces. The apostle Paul expressed deep concern and urged those struggling believers to keep themselves insulted from sin by keeping their distance from it. In fact, he appealed to them to be completely separate from the unclean things of the world (2 Cor.6:17). The closer their connection with the world, the more they would be corrupted by it. Let’s ask God to help us avoid situations that may damage our spiritual health. The Holy Spirit’s power and guidance is the only way we can keep insulated from sin.-DCE O child of God, guard well your life From anything that stains your heart; Forsake those things that soil your mind-- Your father wants you set apart. --Fasick Memory Verse, Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good. -Romans12:9 Insulated From Sin, Read: 2 Corinthians 6:11 -7:1
