He sat patiently listening as the oracle preached to his young ears, he didn't ask questions because he believed he own the truth and he speaks it, so he abided humbly to what the grey hair with a bamboo stick told him.
"You don't immediately ask for forgiveness, he begun, when you are wrong, you wait until guilt slit your throat and summit your knees before you pledge your allegiance to the cross because, as much as you plead you'll have a long record but if you plead once after all sins, you have only a record.
He continued...
" when you sinned and the sun doesn't appear on the sky, God is not watching but when it does He is watching ".Amen?
Amen. The young lad nod in conclusion.
But, this young lad didn't know that the preacher was joking, indirectly telling the people don't sin He watches always.
He had no doubt for he thought he was speaking the truth.
5 years he heard this negative truth.
7 years he lied, looked up, the sun didn't appear, so he is not watching.
15years he lied, felt guilty, his throat was still intact, looked up the sun didn't appear, looked down, he wasn't on his knee, so God is not watching.
20years he knew right from wrong but, this preaching has reacted venomously and sucked all guilt from his mind.
21years he shoplifted, felt guilty but didn't plead because he doesn't want a long record. He looked up the sun was shinning so he ran to the house and hid. In the evening there was no sun then he went out.
23years he robbed the co-operate with black suit(bank) got caught, shoot 4 times through the chest, 2 times in the throat, blood flood like a river, life starting to leave him. He looked up the sun was shinning, he looked down he was on his knee and his throat got slit.
Then, he took his hand placed on his chest pledging his allegiance "God forgive me, I will never sin again" he smiled as he died thinking he only have just a record and God will forget about it.

Please be positively truthful when you are talking with a child or speaking in the places they are present, they have a very magnetized brain and they are always wanting to try things out.
Don't abide to all things you hear ask questions, be smart to let your conscience detect your act.
Importantly, plead for forgiveness when you sin, he is a very forgiving God. Don't wait until your bucket is full.
