Breaking the Soul, Part 1 of 2 (Restoring the Soul)

April 4, 2016

Sex is more than a one-night stand. It imprints the partners with a bond that can follow them to the grave. Having many partners means living with many soul ties, obstructing real commitment and making it seem impossible. How can we break those bonds?

“If it feels good, it must be right. After all, I’m entitled to my happiness.” Those are lies, by which we rationalize our disobedience to God’s commands about sex. Let’s talk about the many ways we twist the truth, in order to justify what our hormones demand.

Driven by our desires, we can become experts at self-deception. We will do whatever it takes to satisfy sexual urges, and then justify what we do by believing blatant lies. What lies can we be led to believe?

Adam and Eve sinned by disobeying God. Then the ripple effect moved into every aspect of humanity. As time passed, people began using other people to gratify their desires without commitment. But there are unavoidable consequences for violating God’s moral laws.

Some have redefined marriage as any so-called loving relationship, no matter what sex the partners are. Others pollute marriages with adultery and pornography. People want to gratify their desires in every way but God’s way. When we abandon God’s morality, people’s lives are in turmoil.

“I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. I have the keys of Death and of Hades.” Jesus revealed this to the Apostle John about what was yet to come. Humanity’s greatest need is life after death, and only Jesus can provide that blessed future.

Jesus told His disciples to conduct a memorial service after His death and resurrection. We call it the Lord’s Supper or communion. In this supper we take the loaf and the cup, recalling His broken body and shed blood. In this we remember that Jesus was given for us that we might be forgiven and have life eternal.

It’s great to know that nothing can separate you from the love of God, not even death or the passing of someone close to you. Only a Christian can face the worst life has to offer and know it’s but a steppingstone to a glorious world that will never end.

They’re among the most soaring words ever penned… the words the Apostle Paul used to conclude Romans chapter eight. Here he lists all the things that cannot separate us from the love of God. If we need some encouragement, we have arrived at the right place.

Does confessing your sins over and over keep you on your way to heaven? No, it doesn’t. When we understand justification by faith, we can have certainty about our future home. Let’s rejoice in our right standing before God!

A death-row inmate faces a grim future, but sometimes, a governor will commute the sentence. In a moment, the man’s outlook leaps from despair to joy. All of us deserve a spiritual death sentence, but God sent Christ to rescue us from despair.
