The Gospel of God: The Expulsive Power of a New Affection

Hope Presbyterian Church in Winston-Salem Sermons

Series: The Gospel of GodScripture: Romans 1:26-32 “The fire of lust’s pleasures must be fought with the fire of God’s pleasures. If we try to fight the fire of lust with prohibitions and threats alone – even the terrible warnings of Jesus – we will fail. We must fight it with a massive promise of superior happiness. We must swallow up the little flicker of lust’s pleasure in the conflagration of holy satisfaction.” John Piper “Whatever our attractions, following Jesus means denying ourselves and taking up our cross. But if Jesus’ people are truly living in his ways, there’s room and joy and love enough for all.” Rebecca McLaughlin “My identity is in Christ and not my sexuality.” Sean DohertyThe post The Gospel of God: The Expulsive Power of a New Affection first appeared on Hope Church PCA.
