A Great Illustration for Young People Concerning Sin and Repentence/Forgiveness..
Usually once or twice a year I am asked to speak at a local christian/Nazarene High School. This is one of the illustrations I did that
worked well....
You can use 3 or 4 volunteers..
Purchase 8 White T-shirts Sm/Md/Lg
1 Contractor Black Garbage Bags
Oreos (Crushed)
Eggs (raw)
Mustard
Ketchup
Anything slimy and sprayable that's safe..
A LARGE DROP CLOTH IT WILL GET A BIT MESSY...
The object is what sin does to your life..
Have the four chosen taken into another room and have them put on a t-shirt (over their Cloths).. then cut a place for arms and neck in the black garbage bag and put it on over the t-shirt...
Then on top of that put another white t-shirt on... They will have this configeration t-shirt/Garbage Bad/T-shirt
Bring them out on the drop cloth have then kneel (cover their legs with mor garbage bags ) and begin to talk about what sin does to their life and how it stains them... and began to
Spray them with the mustard/ketchup/steak sause/ Raw Eggs and then start applying the dirt (Oreos) of sin... to the white t-shirts.. until they are a mess...
when you start talking about repentence and forgiveness... you then walk behind each of them and take a pair of scizzors and begin to cut the the outside t-shirt and the garbage bag off from behind..(take care not to cut the first White T-shirt). and underneath of course is the t-shirt white... free from sin..
It's a great lesson...
