- 3:14Bible the Word of the Lord with you, you can follow along with us,
- 3:17Amen, as we go into the Word of the Lord. And as
- 3:22always, of course, we are thankful to the Lord, and we want
- 3:25to as we do, Amen with each podcast a man open with a word
- 3:32of prayer invoking the presence of the Lord. Father. Again, we thank
- 3:36you for Amen, all of your blessings, your goodness toward us. Amen.
- 3:43It is of your mercies that we are not consumed your compassion. It
- 3:46fails not. Your mercy is new to us every morning. It is in
- 3:50abundance. And Lord, we just want to thank you, Amen, for
- 3:53being the good God that you are. Your rain falls on the just and
- 3:57the unjusts. You loved us while we were yet sinner, while we were
- 4:00haters of God, running away from you, running rebels. Lord, you
- 4:04a man look down, and you knew a man our need. We were
- 4:09in need of a savior. We could not redeem ourselves, save ourselves.
- 4:13And so you sent the Christ of Calvary Amen, to shed his blood.
- 4:17Amen, to redeem us from all iniquity, and to make us sons of
- 4:23God and so now we are just thankful and grateful to you, Amen,
- 4:27for this great sacrifice. And we asked today that your word will penetrate within
- 4:30the heart of someone somewhere, that they will come to know You are the
- 4:35truely living God, and there's none like you in all the earth. Blessed
- 4:40to be your name from this time forth and even forevermore. Amen. And
- 4:44a man bought with a Christ, that is our Amen. Thought that we
- 4:48would like to leave with you today, Amen, to remind you, those
- 4:54of you who are in the Church of Jesus Christ. Amen, you have
- 4:58been bought with a price a man. Are the recipients again of God's mercies,
- 5:03of God's grace, of God's compassion, of God's great love a man.
- 5:09We must never forget the price that was paid, Amen, for our
- 5:13sins. First Corinthians, Chapter number six is where we're going to be today.
- 5:16Let me read three verses toward the end of that reading that we're going
- 5:20to be doing today in chapter six, and then I'm going to come back
- 5:24to those verses a little bit later. Flee sexual immorality is what the Bible
- 5:30teaches here. Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside
- 5:36the body. But he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body.
- 5:46Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit,
- 5:54who is in you, whom you have from God, And you are
- 6:00not your own, for you were bolt with a Christ. Therefore, glorify
- 6:09God in your body and in your spirit, which are gods. Amen.
- 6:18Because we have been Church of the Living God, those of you profess to
- 6:26be Christians. A man who are baptized into Jesus Christ baptized into his body,
- 6:34name the name of Christ. The Bible tells us by the way those
- 6:38who name the name of Christ are to depart from iniquity. And because we
- 6:44have been bought with this Christ, a man of this precious blood of Jesus
- 6:48Christ, this great sacrifice, a man I remember. The Bible also teaches
- 6:54that without the shed in the blood, there is no remission of sins.
- 6:57There is no a man pardoning, there is no blotting out of our transgressions.
- 7:01It was a great sacrifice on the behalf of Jesus. Amen. And
- 7:05so we dare not take amen for granted or diminish in any way. Amen,
- 7:12What Amen Jesus has accomplished for us on our behalf. He did for
- 7:15us what we could not do for ourselves. Amen. And because we have
- 7:19been bought with a price, Amen, we are no longer free to sin,
- 7:28but rather we have been freed from sin. Let me say that again.
- 7:31We are no longer free to sin, but we have been freed from
- 7:38sin. Amen. That's what Jesus Christ came to do. Amen, to
- 7:41free us, Amen from the bondage of sin. Amen. And Paul says,
- 7:45we are no longer slaves to sin because of what Jesus Christ has done
- 7:50for us and in us Amen. The earthly bodies that we inhabit, Amen,
- 7:58that we are only here for in a season, in these bodies for
- 8:01just a season. Amen. We occupy these a man temporal tabernacles, as
- 8:07it were in this world. Amen. And again we are reminded by the
- 8:09word of the Lord here that they are the temples of God and Man.
- 8:13They belong to Him. We belong to Him. And it is by the
- 8:18indwelling of the Holy Spirit again that God has given to us to work in
- 8:22us. Amen, to perfect us, to conform us into the image of
- 8:28Jesus Christ. Amen, our Lord and Savior. And shall we Roman six
- 8:31one tells us with this rhetorical question, By the way, shall we continue
- 8:37in sin that grace may abound? The Bible says, God forbid, How
- 8:43shall we who are dead to sin a man live any longer? Therein?
- 8:48Know you not that so many of you who were baptized into Jesus Christ,
- 8:52we were baptized into his death. Amen. So we've been buried with him
- 8:56by baptism into death. That, like as Christ was raised from the dead,
- 9:01so we also, the Bible teachers, should rise to walk in the
- 9:05newness of life. We are to crucify the old man, mortify, put
- 9:09it off, put him away. Amen. God forbids that his children should
- 9:15continue in sin. The Bible teaches that grace may abound. No, no,
- 9:20no, no, no. Amen. We are not to continue doing
- 9:24the things that we did prior to Amen, the Lord delivering us from the
- 9:28power and the bondage of sin and death. Amen, we are to no
- 9:33longer, the Bible says. Live. We are to no longer linger.
- 9:39We are to all for amen that old sinful lifestyle. Amen. It is
- 9:45carnality, it is against God. The Bible says, it is enmity against
- 9:50God. It is the enemy of God. Amen. And God does not
- 9:54a man desire for his children. He is not a man. He did
- 9:58not die. Jesus didn't die again. The Bible says he came to save
- 10:03his people from their sins. Amen, not in their sins. Not to
- 10:07continue wallowing in sin. Amen. All the Bible says, who live after
- 10:11the flesh will die. Amen. But if you do, through the spirit,
- 10:16mortify, put to death. That is the deeds of the body.
- 10:20The Bible says, you shall live. The wages of sin is death,
- 10:22but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ, our Lord.
- 10:28Amen. And again, those of us who are truly saved, we are
- 10:33to be seeking to please God. Amen, and not ourselves. Amen.
- 10:39If we fear God and we love him, we obey him. Jesus said,
- 10:45why call you mean lord, Lord? And keep my commandments. Not
- 10:46to do not the things that I say. Amen. And if you love
- 10:50me, you will keep my commandments. And the Bible teaches that we are
- 10:54to abstain from funication, abstain from fleshly lust amen, which war against the
- 11:01soul. Amen. And so if we are to be a man, the
- 11:05people of God, the sons of God, and sons of God by the
- 11:07way of those who are obedient. Amen. That's the very a man,
- 11:11meaning a man of being, a son of God, that is, one
- 11:16who is obedient. Amen. We seek to a man live out our immortal
- 11:22lives here in discipleship, that is following after Jesus. Amen. We seek
- 11:28never, never, ever, ever ever to grieve the Holy Spirit. The
- 11:33Bible says, grieve not the Holy Spirit a man, whereby we are sealed
- 11:37unto the day of redemption. Nor do we ever ever ever want to bring
- 11:41a reproach on the name of Jesus Christ. Amen. And even in the
- 11:46Old Testament, when David sinned a man against the Lord, a man sinned
- 11:52against himself, sinned against Bathsheba. A man sinned against a man the commandments
- 11:56of God, a man. When Nathan the Prophet was sent to him a
- 12:00man, he explained to David that he had given the enemies of the Lord
- 12:05an occasion to blaspheme. And we never want to do that, a man
- 12:09bringing a reproach on the name of Jesus Christ. Because again, we are
- 12:15the soul of the earth. We are a city set on the hill.
- 12:18A man. We ought to be conformed, transformed, a man. The
- 12:24Bible says, by the renewing of our minds, and so our bodies,
- 12:28our temples belonged to Him. Amen. And then, of course, if
- 12:33we truly understand a man that our lives no longer belong to us, a
- 12:41man, but for Christ who now lives in us. Amen, then we
- 12:46would a man, of course, seek to again please God, seek to
- 12:50obey him, seek to walk a man in the spirit, lived by the
- 12:56spirit, be led by the spirit, a man. And Bible tells us,
- 12:58by the way to walk in the spirit, we will not fulfill the
- 13:01lust of the flesh. Amen. And so we know that we are not
- 13:07to eat at the Lord's table and eat at the table of devils. No,
- 13:09no, no, no, no. Man, Jesus says, can
- 13:13serve two masters. You're either gonna love the one and hate the other.
- 13:16You're gonna cleave the one and resist the other. You cannot serve the Lord
- 13:20and money. You cannot serve the Lord and the world, the Bible says,
- 13:22come out from among them, be separate, said the Lord. Touch
- 13:26not the unclean things, and I will receive you, and you will be
- 13:28my sons and daughters, said the Lord. Amen. Love not the world,
- 13:35neither of the things that are in the world, because all that is
- 13:37in the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes,
- 13:39and the pride of life is not of God. Amen. There's a
- 13:45transformation that is to take place Amen in us. Amen. And if we
- 13:48again we if we truly love Jesus and we appreciate what he has done for
- 13:56us. Again, he died the death that we deserve to die. He
- 14:00took our place. Amen. And we were not even worthy. We still
- 14:03are not. Amen. Uh, no man is Amen, even to a
- 14:09man give his own body, a man his own blood, because our blood
- 14:13is tainted. Amen. And our blood is unacceptable to God, because we
- 14:16have the sin nature of our father Adam. Amen. And there's only one
- 14:22blood, only one sacrifice, and it was the blood of God himself.
- 14:26God was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself, a man not imputing our
- 14:33trespassers. Amen to us. Amen. So Jesus came, and a man
- 14:37died the death that Amen, that that that we deserve to die. He
- 14:41who knew no sin, the Bible teachers became sin. He came, He
- 14:46became the most vile of sinners. And that he took upon himself all of
- 14:50our sins, all of our transgressions. And now are we to turn about,
- 14:56Amen and continue in sin. Amen, take lightly Amen, Amen,
- 15:01his reproach, Amen, his sorrow, his sufferings that he did on our
- 15:07behalf. Trample on the blood of Jesus Christ. Amen, and count it
- 15:11an unworthy thing. No, oh man, oh, no, no no,
- 15:13not the people of God. Not again. Those of us who are
- 15:18truly saved. We fear God, we love him. We love Jesus for
- 15:20what he has done. Amen. For us on our behalf. Amen,
- 15:24And we seek to obey Him and walk in love. Amen, love him
- 15:30just as He loved us. Bible, the New Testament is simplified. Amen.
- 15:33The Law of God it is Amen. In these two commandments. You
- 15:37love the Lord your God with all your heart. And you love your neighbor
- 15:41as yourself. Amen. And if you love God, as Jesus said,
- 15:46if you love me, you'll keep my commandments. Amen. In his commandments,
- 15:48the Bible reminds us are not grievous. Amen. It's not burdensome.
- 15:54Amen. To obey God when you're living a man, a man with a
- 15:58desire to please him, walking in the spirit and being led by the spirit.
- 16:02Amen. And again all of this stems from love. God so loved
- 16:07the world that he gave his only begotten son, that this is whoever believes
- 16:14in him should not perish, but have ever lasted life. God did not
- 16:17send his son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world
- 16:19through him might be saved. He that believeth on the Son hath life.
- 16:26He that believeth not Amen chelsey death the wrath of God. The Bible teaches,
- 16:32abides on them that do not believe. Amen in Jesus in what he
- 16:37has done in his sacrifice a man, in his atoning work that he did
- 16:41on all behalf again at Calvary. And it again Love love, and the
- 16:47Bible says us, by the way that God is love, and God did
- 16:52this out of love. He first loved us, and that's why we love
- 16:55him. We love him, the Bible says, because He first loved us,
- 16:59we are reciprocating and demonstrating our love. A man toward him in our
- 17:04obedience, by our obedience, a man, don't tell God, don't say
- 17:08that, don't make the profession that, don't go out. A man wearing
- 17:12a placard, wearing a cross, wearing an emblem a man supposedly as it
- 17:19were, a man professing or putting on a show of your Christianity when you
- 17:32don't have a heart of obedience. Amen, it's in obedience, folks,
- 17:36it's in obedience. We don't have to wear it a man. We live
- 17:38it a man. We live it by the power of the Holy Ghost,
- 17:42by the spirit of a living God working in us, a man transformed,
- 17:48transforming us, renewing us a man. And if any man sins, I
- 17:52mean I can't listen, no one. None of us are perfect. But
- 17:57we are striving for perfection. Amen, We're striving to be more and more
- 18:03like Jesus. That's what the whole purpose of sanctification is. That's what the
- 18:07whole purpose of the Holy Spirit being in us is for. To change us,
- 18:11to correct us, to discipline us, to chasten us. And when
- 18:15we sin and fall short of the glory of God, as we've already discovered
- 18:19in this letter to the Corinthians, we're not to glory in this. Amen,
- 18:25Your glorying in sin is not good. Paul just wrote about this.
- 18:29We've already covered this, brother in our previous session. I believe when Amen,
- 18:33there was sin in the church, and the people were not repentant.
- 18:37Amen, They were not sorry a man. They were glorying in the fact
- 18:41that there was a man in the congregation who was sleeping with his father's wife.
- 18:45Paulsi, your glorying is not good. You are proud, you are
- 18:48puffed up. You should be broken, you should be in sorrow, you
- 18:52should be weeping, you should be mourning. Amen. And again, if
- 18:56we love God, if we love Jesus, Amen for that great sacrifice that
- 19:04he Amen did on our behalf. We don't don't we don't seek, Amen,
- 19:10to displease him, to grieve him. Amen. Again, when we
- 19:14sin, and the Holy Spirit is there, of course a man to discipline
- 19:18us, to chasen us, to correct us. Amen, we run.
- 19:22We run to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find
- 19:26grace to help in the time of need. The Bible said, we have
- 19:29not a high priest. We cannot be touched with the feelings of our infirmities.
- 19:33Jesus knows what we're going through. He went through, Amen, and
- 19:37he was, in the Bible says, tempted in all points, just as
- 19:41we are, yet without sin. But he who knew no sin became sin.
- 19:45He took on sin, Amen, our sins Amen, in order that
- 19:51we should escape. Amen. And again all of this is from the love
- 19:56that emanates from God. Amen. Reciprocate this love back to Him. Amen.
- 20:03And those of us again who will truly say, we are not to
- 20:06be deceived, not to be led astray. Amen. As some who amen
- 20:11again professedly they are saved, but they deny Him in their lifestyle and their
- 20:15works. Amen, in their deeds. First Corinthians, chapter six is where
- 20:19we are. I'm going to begin reading at vers number nine, and I'm
- 20:23almost finished. I want you to just hear what the Bible has to say,
- 20:26well, the teachings of Amen. The scriptures tell us about this body
- 20:33in which we are living here on this earth. Amen. And again again,
- 20:37we only here for a season. Amen. While we're here, we
- 20:41have to bring glory to God, honor to God. That's why he saved
- 20:44us. Amen. This is why he saved us. Jesus came to save
- 20:48his people, the Bible says, from their sins. Amen. And now
- 20:56again that we are delivered and set free, we are to live no longer
- 21:00therein not in sin, no no no sin. Listen what the Bible says
- 21:04in Romans. I'm getting the Corinthian sestion Romans chapter six. Again, Sin
- 21:11shall not have dominion over you. Sin no longer has the power over you.
- 21:15Sin no longer is your master a man. You don't have to be
- 21:18in a slave or servant to sin. As a matter of fact, this
- 21:26is Bible. This is Word of God. Listen, I'm telling you,
- 21:29this is Bible, this word of God and man. And the more you
- 21:32know, the more you walk with Jesus, and the more a man the
- 21:36Word of God is in you, Sin becomes something that we do. Let
- 21:45me say this, Let me say this carefully. The closer we get to
- 21:52the Lord, and the more amen we are conform into the image of Christ,
- 22:03sin becomes foreign to us. Not again that we are perfect, and
- 22:11certainly not in our thoughts, certainly not in our deeds all at all times.
- 22:15But let me just say this, This is the point I want to
- 22:18make. Because of the power of the Holy Spirit, because of the presence
- 22:29of the Holy Spirit in us, when we sin, the child of God,
- 22:33when the Child of God sins, And again I'm not painting with a
- 22:37broad blood brush here, but it's almost deliberate. In most cases it's almost
- 22:48premeditated in most cases. Again, because he is the keeper of our souls.
- 22:52And if we want to be kept, if we desire to be kept,
- 22:56and if we want to again obey the word of God and flee,
- 23:00as it were on occasion, flee sexual immorality, if there is the desire,
- 23:11if there is the willingness to obey, sin has to be in most
- 23:18cases, a deliberate, conscious choice on our behalf. Now, as one
- 23:25who is a slave to sin, a servant of sin, before you are
- 23:30redeemed, before you are delivered, before you are set free, you are
- 23:34free to sin. The Bible says, because you are the servant of sin,
- 23:37you were slave. He was Sin was your master. This is what
- 23:41goes goes all the way back to the Genesis. The Lord came to a
- 23:47man Cain and said, you know, if you were just obeyed a man
- 23:51sin will not get the mastery over you. But if you do not,
- 23:56he's crouching at the door, and he will get the mastery over you.
- 24:00You will become his servant, his slave. You will be in bondage.
- 24:07You will obey sin, you will obey your lust, you will obey all
- 24:11of your amen carnal desires, the thoughts that come to your mind, you
- 24:15will be a slave. And that's that's what it is like to be a
- 24:19sinner. But that's not I mean, that's not the character of one who
- 24:25is saved. Amen. And again Jesus said, You're gonna know them by
- 24:27their fruit. Amen, You'll know them by their fruit. Amen. And
- 24:33again when we have been delivered, and please again understand the Bible is crystal
- 24:38clear about this, Amen, that we, as the children of God,
- 24:44do sin and fall short of the glory of God. What I'm saying to
- 24:48you is that in most cases, the closer you get, the more you
- 24:52walk with the Lord, those are deliberate sins in most cases, Amen.
- 24:57Because again the again, it's because of the power in the presence of the
- 25:03Holy ghost. When you have the power in the presence of the Holy ghosts,
- 25:07he keeps you from falling. Now unto him, the Bible says,
- 25:11who is able to keep you from falling and to present you what faultless before
- 25:15his presence with exceeding joy. Man, God is a keeper. Again,
- 25:21He didn't save us for the devil to have power over us, for sin,
- 25:25to have power over us, for the flesh to have power of us,
- 25:27for us to still walk the same, live the same, be the
- 25:30same. No, if any man be in Christ, he is a new
- 25:34creation, the oldest passed away. And behold, all things become new,
- 25:41new mind, new way of thinking, new way of walking, new way
- 25:45of living. Amen, that's Bible. I know I'm in the Word of
- 25:48God. Amen. First Garne in chapter six, first number nine. Do
- 25:52you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Do
- 26:00not be all says Listen. Don't let anyone fool you. Amen. Don't
- 26:07let anyone mislead you. A man guide you down the wrong path, tell
- 26:11you that it's okay. Amen, to just live anyway you want to live,
- 26:15live how you want to live, and still a man, be a
- 26:18part of the Kingdom. No, hot says no. Do not be deceived.
- 26:22Neither fornicators, nor idolators, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites,
- 26:33nor thieves, nor covetous nor drunkards, nor revilers nor extortioners will inherit
- 26:44the Kingdom of God. And ladies and gentlemen. That is not an exhaustive
- 26:48list, by the way, but you get the point. Amen. Those
- 26:55of you, any of you, anyone, I don't care who they are.
- 26:59Anyone in engaging in the acts of fornication, that is, any sexual
- 27:07activity outside of holy matrimony, God ordained holy matrimony. And it's a shame
- 27:15we have to say this now between a man and a woman. If you
- 27:23are living, acting, trafficking in sexual immorality, that is fornication, adultery,
- 27:38homosexuality, sodomy. The Bible says, no, you will not inherit
- 27:48the kingdom of God because it is unrighteous behavior, unrighteous conduct. It is
- 27:56sin, it is iniquity, it is transgression against the law of God.
- 28:00Amen. If you are trafficking in idolatry, if you are a thief,
- 28:07the Bible says, if you are covetous, that's a sin of the heart.
- 28:12Amen, that's inward Amen, covetous person, And it can be seen
- 28:17by the way outwardly drunkards, revilers, extortioners. Paul says, no,
- 28:30will not inherit the Kingdom of God. Listen, here's the beauty. Here's
- 28:34the beauty, here's the beauty of this great salvation. This is what Paul
- 28:37says. And such were some of you, that's who you were not who
- 28:42you are who you were. We are no longer to be practicing, to
- 28:49be involved, to be engaged, to be trafficking in these things, none
- 28:55of them. No, absolutely not. Shall we continue in sin that grace
- 29:03may abound. The Bible says, God says, no. Now, some
- 29:08lying preach your prophet, Bishop, I don't care who they are. Tell
- 29:12you that you can do these things, practice these things, and the grace
- 29:15of God is going to continue to abound towards you. The Bible says,
- 29:19no, you're showing yourself to be who you truly are when you walk in
- 29:26disobedience. Don't tell God that you love him and you don't obey him.
- 29:30This is again anesthetical to what Jesus himself talked. If you love me,
- 29:40keep my commandments. Those who love God obey him. They seek to obey
- 29:45him, They seek to please him. They seek to be found pleasing in
- 29:48his sight, and not to please themselves, not to please and satisfy their
- 29:52flesh and their carnality and their longings and their worldly lust. No, Paul
- 30:00says, they will not. None of these will not inherit the kingdom of
- 30:07God. And such were that's past. Some of you such were when we
- 30:14were in the world. Amen. But you were washed. This is what
- 30:21he says. You were sanctified, You were justified in the name of the
- 30:27Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God. All things are lawful for
- 30:33me, Paul says, But all things are not helpful, not expedient.
- 30:38Amen. There are some things that amen, for the good of my sanctification.
- 30:44Amen, that I will abstain from. And the Bible tells us by
- 30:49the way, to abstain from all appearance of evil a man. You don't
- 30:53want to give the devil any Amen, access any opening a man in order
- 31:00to creep in a man, to begin to a man, work a man
- 31:04in your flesh, to work in your cranality. Amen. We're still in
- 31:08these bodies. And this is what the Bible is emphasizing. It's the word
- 31:11of God is emphasizing here. Amen, that in these bodies, while we
- 31:15hear on this earth, these bodies, a man belonged to the Lord.
- 31:21Amen. And Paul says again, you were washed. Amen. You were
- 31:26sanctified and justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, by the Spirit
- 31:32of our God, by the power of the Holy Spirit. When he baptized
- 31:36by one spirit, the Spirit, the Holy Spirit, the Holy Ghost.
- 31:41Are we baptize into one body? Amen? And is by the spirit of
- 31:45the Living God, who comes to be in us and dwelling us and live
- 31:48in us. It's work in us again to conform us into the image of
- 31:52Jesus Christ. All things are lawful for me, while all things are not
- 31:55helpful. All things are lawful for me, but I will not. This
- 31:57is what the Paul says. Will not be brought under the power of any
- 32:04Nothing in this world is to have the mastery over us. Nothing. It
- 32:10may be lawful for me to engage, Amen, But I am not to
- 32:15be brought under the power, under the authority, under the servitude of anything
- 32:22of this world, anything in this world. A man foods for the stomach,
- 32:25and the stomach for foods, but God will destroy both it and them.
- 32:30This is what he says very carefully here now, the body is not
- 32:32for sexual immorality. Your body is not for sexual immorality of any kind.
- 32:43The body, he says, is not for sexual immorality, but for the
- 32:49Lord and the Lord. For the body and God both raised up the Lord
- 32:55and will also raise us up by his power. Amen. This is what
- 33:01the Bible says, verse fifteen. Do you not know that your bodies are
- 33:07members of Christ? You are a part of Jesus Christ, his body.
- 33:14The Church is his body, The Church is his bride. Amen. We
- 33:21are to be presented to him a man, spotless, blameless, faultless before
- 33:27his presence. Amen. And that's what this sanctification process is all about.
- 33:34Amen. We want it to be. We want to be, we desire
- 33:37to be in the Bible speaks of this. This is what teaching again of
- 33:39the New Testament is all about, that we may be presented to him.
- 33:43Paul says, as a chase, virgin, clean, cleansed, washed,
- 33:50Amen, from the fifth of this world. Amen. Do you not know
- 34:00that your bodies that's my body, your body, this earthly tent, this
- 34:05earthly tabernacle, this earthly house in which we live, they belong to Jesus.
- 34:13This is this is every term question. He follows it up with another
- 34:15one. He says, Shall I then take the members of Christ my body,
- 34:20your body? Shall we take our bodies amen, and make them members
- 34:27of a harlet join ourselves to sexual immorality? No? Amen, certainly not,
- 34:37He says, Do you not know that he who is joined to a
- 34:44harlot is one flesh. It's one body with her. For the two,
- 34:51he says, shall become one flesh. But he is he who is joined
- 34:57to the Lord, is one with him. Amen, flee sexual immorality Verse
- 35:06eighteen. Every sin that a man does is outside the body. But he
- 35:13who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. If you are joined into
- 35:20engaging in trafficking in any again, unlawful, unrighteous, unconstitutional. I'm talking
- 35:32about God's constitutional, God's constitution, brother, God's law, God's commands.
- 35:40Amen. If you're engaging in any sexual activity outside of the marital bond that
- 35:51God established between again, and you have to say it. A man and
- 35:54a woman, a male and a female, born of the male species,
- 36:00born of the female species. If you are engaging outside of marriage, you
- 36:12are sinning against your own body. That's what the Bible teaches here. You
- 36:17are sinning against your own flesh. Amen, Your body is This is what
- 36:25the Bible says. Again, he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own
- 36:34body. And he says, do you not know that your body is the
- 36:38temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have from
- 36:46God, and you no longer are your own You're not You're no longer your
- 36:54own person. Amen, in the sense that you are now bought with the
- 36:59price, that's what he says. And therefore, since you are bought with
- 37:04the prist, that precious blood of Jesus, he says, we are to
- 37:08glorify God in our bodies and in our spirit, Amen, which belong to
- 37:16God. God is to be glorified Church in our natural bodies, in these
- 37:23a man temporary temples in which we reside, a man right here in this
- 37:29present world, a man. Not when we get to heaven. No no,
- 37:31no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
- 37:31no, no, oh, because everybody is in heaven a man. Are
- 37:37those who again, who are the sons of God, A man who have
- 37:39been obedient to the word of God, A man who are a man again,
- 37:45allowing the Spirit of God to work in them. Again, Not that
- 37:50we are perfected a man, a perfect brother, of our own doing,
- 37:55of our own striving, of our own being a man. But it is
- 38:00by the Amen again, the working of the Holy Spirit in us, Amen,
- 38:07that's who is going to be in the kingdom. Paul says that unrighteous
- 38:12shall not inherit the Kingdom of God. We are not to be deceived.
- 38:17Don't let anyone deceive it. Don't anyone fool you. I mean, you
- 38:21cannot practice these things. Amen. And inherit the Kingdom of God and man.
- 38:24We all belong to him, this tenth, this tabernacle, this earthly
- 38:30house in which we now live. Amen. Amen. God gave it to
- 38:35us a man for glorification, for his presence. Amen, to his honor,
- 38:40to his majesty, to his splendor. Amen. And your body,
- 38:45your choice is not applicable here a man. No, no, no,
- 38:49no no. Your body and my body my choice, Nope, you are
- 38:53not your own when you are in Christ Jesus. Amen. And Amen,
- 39:00it is his body. We belong to him. It is his choice.
- 39:05Amen. To sanctify us a man biobedient, And we have been bought with
- 39:12the price, and we are to glory Fye God, in our bodies which
- 39:17belong to him. So Father, will you just skin help us today to
- 39:21walk worthy of the vocation to speak the truth in our heart. Who shall
- 39:23abide in that temple, who shall abide in your tabernacle, who shall ascend
- 39:30into your presence, He who has clean hands and the pure heart. We
- 39:32have not lifted up his soul to vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. To Lord,
- 39:37Help us to live, walk right, speak the truth in our hearts.
