Choosing Christ doesn’t mean just a new set of moral commitments. It’s a divine transaction with God that establishes in us a whole new identity; however, we still have the pulls of the flesh. Real faith in Jesus is a faith that fights sin.

John Piper talks about sexual sin and what’s at the root, a lack of connection with God. It’s a symptom of the disease, not the disease.

Thousands are walking away from their dreams that can impact others in a positive nature because of the effects of their failed attempts at sexuality.

Guilt and a sense of unworthiness bleeds down into a sense of spiritual powerlessness, of carnal security and strip us of our amazing dreams and we settle for middle class happiness.

Theology, with passion for Jesus can conquer biology.

Beautifully said.
