Spider-Man 3 and the Struggle with Sin

What can a superhero movie teach us about the power of sin and how Christians should live? Quite a bit, actually! Our battle with the attraction to doing what we shouldn’t is so universal, it should be no surprise that it shows up in our stories—especially in films like Spider-Man 3, where the concept of good an evil is on full display For the natural man, sin is the ultimate master of one's actions both prior to conversion and possibly afterwards, if we let it. Here we see how Tobey McGuire's Spider-Man brings us a vivid illustration of what happens when we allow that sin nature to overtake us. We’ll also look at practical ways to escape the clutches of that fate.
