Detective Kane sat in an unmarked car parked in front of an ordinary house in an ordinary neighborhood. However, he was watching for a very extraordinary man; a man who had murdered many people.

Kane nicknamed this man the "Iceman," because he coldly murdered those who thought he was a friend. The Iceman was a thief too. He sold what he stole and lived off the money. Detective Kane knew this thief was very dangerous. He was determined to put him in jail for life, but he had to catch him.

Finally, he pulled away from the curb. The Iceman was not leaving his house anymore. The Iceman was trying to hide from the law. Maybe he knew Detective Kane was on his track.

Kane had another idea. He hired another detective to pretend he was a criminal and become a friend of the Iceman. Maybe the detective could get the Iceman talking about the murders he had committed.

Sure enough, listening by tape to their conversation, Kane heard the Iceman, describe how he had poisoned one man and hid the body of another. Things were coming together now. Kane had to act quickly before the Iceman started looking for him. He did not want to be on the list of men this cold man had murdered!

The Iceman had fooled his family. They thought he was a business man. His neighbors thought he was a kind man and they liked him. However, Kane knew what they did not. He had evidence that the Iceman was guilty of murder!

The day came when it was time to arrest the Iceman. The undercover detective met the Iceman and gave him some cyanide, a poison the Iceman had used before. Kane watched as the Iceman took the poison and returned to his house.

A few minutes later, the Iceman emerged from the house holding poisoned sandwiches in his hand. He got into the car with his smiling, laughing wife. She knew nothing until police suddenly surrounded their car. She looked stunned as they quickly handcuffed her husband, the Iceman.

Once the Iceman was in court, he confessed to all the murders Kane knew he had committed. In the end, he was sentenced to four life terms in jail. Kane had done his job. The Iceman could not hide from the law.

You may not have sinned like the Iceman, but are you trying to hide from God? At the Great White Throne, no one will be able to hide. God sees all the sins we commit. The Bible says, "Nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest" (Luke 8:17). God will punish us for them, unless we trust in Christ for salvation.
