This is lesson three of a five part series about
experiencing forgiveness and restoration.
Noah, Abraham, Moses, Solomon and Peter all have
something in common.
They all made seemingly unimportant decisions
or SUDs,
which ended up allowing sin into their lives.
If you have been a Christian for any length of time,
you probably can go ahead and add your name to the list, because you have not
kept your SUD’s in the bucket.

Samuel 11:14-17 NASB
(14) Now in the morning
David wrote a letter to Joab and sent it by the hand of Uriah.
(15) He had written in the
letter, saying, "Place Uriah in the front line of the fiercest battle and
withdraw from him, so that he may be struck down and die."
(16) So it was as Joab kept
watch on the city, that he put Uriah at the place where he knew there were
valiant men.
(17) The men of the city
went out and fought against Joab, and some of the people among David's servants
fell; and Uriah the Hittite also died.
Covering sin is
destructive. David had taken Bathsheba and
she was pregnant. It is at this point
David devised a plan. He said, “Hey I’ll
just bring Uriah home and let him spend the night with her, no one will ever
know”.
Do we try to transfer
our sins?
David never dreamed
Uriah would be so loyal. He must have
thought, enough of this I will just send him to front lines and have him killed
in battle.
Sin can cause us to
destroy others.
And don’t forget this
all started with …
Seemingly unimportant
decisions or SUDs
Keep
Your Suds in the Bucket
