Genesis 6:5 Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
Sin plagues our culture like a parasite that never dies. Over the last few weeks, I've had the privilege of addressing the topic of sexual purity as we at Christ Fellowship Bible Church have worked our way verse by verse through the book of 1 Thessalonians.
Coming to 1 Thessalonians 4:3-8, I dealt with one of the clearest paragraphs in the NT on sexual purity. Here are the links to my three-part series.
1. Passionately Pursue Sexual Purity — part 1: 1 Thess 4:3 (What was the 1st c. Roman culture like in Thessalonika? What is Marriage? Is Sex the Issue or Is it Lust? What is Sexual Immorality [πορνεία]?)
2. Passionately Pursue Sexual Purity — part 2: 1 Thess 4.4-6a (Control Your Body! What is Lust? How Evil is Pornography & How Can One Break This Enslaving Sin? The Antidote to All Sexual Sin is the Knowledge of & Pursuit of God.)
3. Passionately Pursue Sexual Purity — part 3: 1 Thess 4.6b-8 (What Happens to Those Who Don't Repent & Change? The Vengeance of God. God Calls All His People to Sanctification. How Is This Sanctification Possible?)
Listen to this series & I pray that it may be helpful to you as you walk with God & passionately pursue sexual purity.
