Sin takes, costs, and keeps

A riff on or derived from combining an old saying and thoughts preached last night on Jonah chapter 1 by Brother Herman Johnson, at Mt. Zion Baptist Church, July 29, 2025.

  • Sin will take you farther than you want to go.
    • “Jonah rose up to flee unto Tarshish from the presence of the Lord”
  • Sin will cost you more than you want to pay.
    • “he found a ship going to Tarshish: so he paid the fare thereof”
  • Sin will keep you longer than you want to stay.
    • “Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.”


(I still generally am not going to post on Wednesdays, but I thought this was too good to pass up, and I already had it typed up.)
