  • Sodomy and Injustice

    Sodomy and Injustice

    Abraham has spoken with the preincarnate Christ about justice and righteousness. God has chosen Abraham for the purpose of righteousness and justice upon the earth. Thus, all of Abraham’s descendants, particularly those in Christ, have a responsibility to see righteousness and justice fulfilled on the earth. Now, we see the destruction of Sodom. Christ has…

  • Daily Devotional: Romans 13:7-14

    Daily Devotional: Romans 13:7-14

    Paul continues to exhort the unincorporated in Rome about how to live just lives. He lists a few of the Old Testament Commandments, but ultimately, he admits it simply comes down to loving other people sincerely. It would be difficult for Paul to teach the whole degree of the Law, every minute detail, to the…

    Overcoming Porn (explicit-ish)

    Paul addressed the immorality present in the church at Corinth. Now, he turns his attention to the matters about which the church wrote him related to porneia, sexual sin.

    Six Wrong Teachings Jesus Addressed Explicitly

    In the previous two sections of the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus has first addressed His sermon to the intended audience- those who hunger and thirst for righteousness (v. 6) and those who will experience the trials that they will experience because of Christ (v. 11). He is talking particularly with His disciples. In the…

  • Ethics: Homosexuality and Lust

    Ethics: Homosexuality and Lust

    Since we have been looking at current statistics, we will look, again, at Gallup’s 2017 ethics poll. About 63% of Americans believe that homosexuality is morally acceptable. Before looking at the poll, I expected the percentage to be higher than it is. This is up from 40% the first time that Gallup asked this question…
