Pastor Mike preaches verse-by-verse, so please open up your Bible to 1 Corinthians 6:12-20
and follow along. Part 4 of this 2011 show is the last part in this series on sexual sin. Ways To Overcome Sexual Temptation and Sexual Immorality: Review from previous weeks 1. Rehearse the Gospel. 2. Do not rationalize your sexual sins (or any sin). 3. Read your Bible more-saturate your mind with the Word of God. 4. View the body properly. Six reasons in light of this section that you have to think properly about your body so that you can remain pure: 1. Your body is for the Lord (v.13) 2. Your body will be raised up one day (v.14) 3. Your body is a member of Christ (v.15-17) New this week 5. Your own body is going to be hurt (v.18). Your sin is against your own body. Sex outside of marriage is a horrible filthy thing according to God. Flee sexual immorarilty as Joseph did in Genesis 39:1-18. 6. Your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit (v.19). The Holy Spirit indwells believers. Be a good steward of your body and treat it like a shrine since He lives inside. 7. Your body was bought with a tremendous price (v.19-20). God has purchased His children with the blood of His Son Jesus Christ, so He owns you. Are you a slave to Jesus or to your own desires? Your primary motivation to stay pure is not to avoid getting pregnant or diseases, but to do all for the glory of God (1 Corithians 10:31).| « Previous episode | Next episode » |
