Hebrews 10:28 Anyone who rejected the law of Moses died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses.
In Moses’ time, the witness of two or three people was enough to put someone to death.
How many people know about the things we have done wrong in our lives? How many witnesses could be against us!
God wants us to live by His rules as an example for others, when we give in to sin and temptations, many around us will see the example and know the repercussions!
We do affect many more people than we realise when we go against God’s will and His Word!
