1 Corinthians 7:8-16

8 But I say to the unmarried and to widows that it is good for them if they remain even as I.
9 But if they do not have self-control, let them marry; for it is better to marry than to burn with passion.
10 But to the married I give instructions, not I, but the Lord, that the wife should not leave her husband
11 (but if she does leave, she must remain unmarried, or else be reconciled to her husband), and that the husband should not divorce his wife.
12 But to the rest I say, not the Lord, that if any brother has a wife who is an unbeliever, and she consents to live with him, he must not divorce her.
13 And a woman who has an unbelieving husband, and he consents to live with her, she must not send her husband away.
14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified through his wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified through her believing husband; for otherwise your children are unclean, but now they are holy.
15 Yet if the unbelieving one leaves, let him leave; the brother or the sister is not under bondage in such cases, but God has called us  to peace.
16 For how do you know, O wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, O husband, whether you will save your wife?

1- Be Committed to your spouse
2- Mutuality yes autonomy no
3 -Beware the danger of depriving your spouse conjugal privileges

Three more Principals
1-For the single remain single , unless self control is an issue
2-For the married, stay married.
3-For the unequally yoked……..

Sermon20110306

James 4:4-6 (NASB)
4 You adulteresses, do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.
5 Or do you think that the Scripture speaks to no purpose: “ He jealously desires the Spirit which He has made to dwell in us”?
6 But He gives a greater grace. Therefore it says, “ God is opposed to the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”

A friend of God’s is not friend of the world!
A friend of God’s has a new nature!
A friend of God’s is humble!

Sermon20110227

Four Dangers of Lovelessness:

1 – Disregard for Gods ultimate act of love, Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross.
2 – Lovelessness causes misunderstanding of spiritual gifts and life
3 – Lovelessness always manifests itself in actions contrary to biblical love
4 – Lovelessness dishonors God and destroys our testimony in the eyes of the world.

What are the consequences of continued lovelessness in the Church ?

Lovelessness- lack of genuine concern for others.

How to recover from Lovelessness:

Confess and forsake the sin of Lovelessness.
Meditate daily on God’s love for you.
Obey Gods word out of a heart of love for him. Romans12:10, 1Peter4:8
Prayerfully ask God to change your heart by the Spirit.
Actively seek to demonstrate love to one another.

James 4
1   What is the source of quarrels and conflicts among you? Is not the source your pleasures that wage war in your members? 2 You lust and do not have; so you commit murder. You are envious and cannot obtain; so you fight and quarrel. You do not have because you do not ask. 3 You ask and do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it on your pleasures. 4 You adulteresses, do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. 5 Or do you think that the Scripture speaks to no purpose: “ He jealously desires the Spirit which He has made to dwell in us”? 6 But He gives a greater grace. Therefore it says, “ GOD IS OPPOSED TO THE PROUD, BUT GIVES GRACE TO THE HUMBLE.”
(NASB)

1. Conflict with others.
