Leviticus 13
Verse 46 "As long as the serious disease lasts, they will be ceremonially unclean. They must live in isolation in their place outside the camp."
Just as the unclean person in the old testament had to live in isolation so sin separates and isolates us from the ones we love. Sin always brings death and death always separates. It doesn't matter what kind of sin; lies, gossip, bitterness, un-forgiveness, offense or addiction. Sin isolates, separates and destroys life.
Only through the cleansing power of Jesus Christ can our lives be restored to wholeness. As the song says, "what can wash away my sin, nothing but the blood of Jesus, what can make me whole again, nothing but the blood of Jesus." Only Jesus Christ has the power to declare us clean, only Jesus has the power to restore our lives to wholeness, only Jesus can tear down the walls that separate us from one another and from God. Only Jesus!!
