Here's a great quote I found in the
Old Testament student manual. We used it along with committing a
sin/breaking commandments!
"No one sins in isolation. We cannot say that our actions influence only
ourselves for even if we do something sinful that is completely
personal, our individual loss of spiritual power means a lessening of
power for all mankind and contributes to the withdrawal of the Lord's
Spirit, and that is damaging to all mankind."
To illustrate this, take a bowl of water and drop a small rock into it.
Point out how even though the rock was dropped in the middle, the water
at the edges of the bowl was affected.
The rock is like the influence of our actions, and how even our private
sins can affect others.
