Shortfall
Rom.3:22 “We are made right with God by placing our faith in Jesus Christ. And this is true for everyone who believes, no matter who we are. 23 For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard.”
Businesses go through seasons and that is totally understandable. However, it is one thing not to have the money to pay salaries and it is another thing to withhold the salaries of your employees.
You Must Not
Act!!!
Rom.8:13 “For if you live by its dictates, you will die. But if through the power of the Spirit you put to death the deeds of your sinful nature, you will live” [with emphasis]
To overcome temptation, the second thing you need to do is to take action. Act in the power of the Holy Spirit, not in your strength, not in your flesh.
Love Controlled
2 Cor.5:14 [MSG] “Christ’s love has moved me to such extremes. His love has the first and last word in everything we do.”
By God’s grace, people talk with me freely because they know that I will not judge them. A pastor’s job is very interesting; you cannot even imagine some of the things I hear. But all in all, my first response is usually to laugh.
First Love – New Love!
Time & Trouble
The Promise
God’s Order
Matt.5: 27 “You have heard the commandment that says, ‘You must not commit adultery.’ 28 But I say, anyone who even looks at a woman with lust has already committed adultery with her in his heart” [with emphasis].
The world is putting a lot of people under pressure to ascertain “compatibility” before marriage. And the test for compatibility is the joining of bodies outside of marriage.
Original Blueprint
Heb.13:4 (NRSV) “Let marriage be held in honour by all, and let the marriage bed be kept undefiled; for God will judge fornicators and adulterers.”
There are different seasons in marriage and the same applies to sexual intimacy within the marriage.
