*THE FADING LEAF*
**‘We all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.’**
** [Isaiah 64:6](../../../kjv/isaiah/64/6)**
****I. Lessons of the falling leaf**.
(*a*)*It is a picture of man’s insignificance on the face of God’s world*.
(*b*)*It is a picture of the inherent decay of man*.
(*c*)*It is a picture of the inevitable fate of man*.
(*d*)*It is a picture of the universal fate of man*.
**II. Look at the figure of the falling leaf as solemnised by the thought of sin**.
(*a*)*Sin has made the departure of man premature*.
(*b*)*Sin has made man’s departure from this world a violent one*.
(*c*)*Sin has given to man’s departure from this world a dark and terrible fear for the future*.
