Ecclesiastes 10:1 NLT - "As dead flies cause even a bottle of perfume to stink, so a little foolishness spoils great wisdom and honor."

This is just one passage to point out an important truth: so-called "little sins" can cause great destruction.  Think of a tiny screw loose inside a jet engine.  That little $.15 item can cause a multi-thousand dollar engine to fail and, if it's attached to a plane, it can bring immeasurable grief to hundreds.

The warning is to treat every sin as LARGE.  There really is no little sin.  The devil has brought many a godly man or woman down by a "slight indiscretion" that can bring great embarrassment and spoil a wonderful ministry.  Remember 1 Corinthians 10:12, "Wherefore, to him who thinks he stands, take heed, lest he fall."  Watch out for the tiny pitfalls Satan will toss in your path.  Tripping over a marble can fracture a skull.  Doing something foolish can destroy your life.
