If you drag mold out into the sun light, from it's dark and secret place it dies. If you drag sin, any sin, out from it's dark secret place into the burning light of CHRIST JESUS it dies. I don't think mold represents a specific sin, just sin in general. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mold is everywhere in the environment and cannot be avoided. It reproduces through spores and those spores are in just about any home any where awaiting the right conditions to thrive. In the outdoors it is harmless but abundent. It needs to feed on something to grow yeast, cellulose, and sugar are good substrates. The right kind of mold indoors and in the right environment can become a health concern and even deadly. We can do things to promote it's growth by not allowing in plenty of fresh air and light. It will not grow if we do not feed it. It is symbolic of an organic growth. Just kidding, I understand the scab your picking at sis. It actually plays a role in keeping the environment healthy in certain circusmtances by helping to break down organic materials. It is also critical in the production of certain antibiotics. Mold will positively, absolutely, not grow on a Twinkie, that is why you should never eat those darned things. They are most certainly not organic material.

If you drag mold out into the sun light, from it's dark and secret place it dies. If you drag sin, any sin, out from it's dark secret place into the burning light of CHRIST JESUS it dies. I never gave mold any thought until Nebulas post but I love this thinking, I am going to have to remember it and pass it along. I have a housebound friend who believes there is no sin found within her simply because she doesn't talk to anyone but a few family members. This is a something she would understand, thanks.

Never notice that in the Books of the Law have to check it out now. Thanks Nebula if someone would have told me I would look at a discussion on mold and find it interesting I would have said you are nuts. But this has been both interesting and educational for me.

Possibly mold specifically here refers to not sin specifically, but someone who has become complacent and is just doing the "status quo" in their walk.
