Living With Your Passions
In a hyper-sexualized culture, sex is either reduced to pleasure-seeking or conflated with our identity. But God designed us as sexual beings for emotional and spiritual intimacy whose highest calling is to worship Him. In this revised edition, Pastor Erwin Lutzer draws on forty years of ministry experience to present a rationale for sexual purity. He gives an honest answer to the sexual pressures we face like extramarital relationships, self-gratification, same-sex attraction, and more. As desire-driven creatures, we don't have to pursue happiness at the expense of character. With our identity grounded in Christ, we can live victoriously with our passions.

At the core of God desiring glory is the plan of redemption He designed long ago.   Bringing many sons and daughters to glory was His intention, even though He knew mankind would fall in the Garden of Eden. Today Pastor Lutzer shares how that plan unfolded.

With Jesus as its cornerstone, the church has a rock-solid foundation. As believers, we are part of that building, since we are called “living stones” by the Apostle Peter.

Believers attend church to meet God, and further extend His glory. We gather to express to God His worth to us: that is what the word “worship” is all about.

God’s glory is easy to lose sight of. All it takes is one small sin. In Moses’ day, the glory of God would come and go. In the end, it departed, as the sins of Israel caused God to draw back His favor. Could this be true even today?

As we mature in the faith, we come to realize more and more that it is not about us. It is about God, whose glory fills the heavens. When we see our lives as part of a much larger plan, we understand that enhancing God’s glory is the bottom line.

Like the serpent that beguiled Eve, Satanic substitutes for God look attractive. Though popular, the occult’s teachings are the doctrines of demons. As believers, it is vital for us to understand what the Bible calls “sound doctrine.”

Our culture is into occult phenomena like never before. Whether by internet, television, movies, or music, the occult is underscoring more and more of our culture’s values.

Christians are awash in a sea of pleasures, having time for everything but God. Many waste their time in a myriad of ways, and the options are only increasing.

The commercial once said: “You only go around once in life. Grab all the gusto you can.” This, of course, is a lie. A pleasure-mad culture is infecting the church, which challenges us to reach for the real pleasures God offers.

God designed sex for a covenant marriage relationship, not for a succession of one-night stands. Today the allure of sexual affairs can poison our souls and undermine our ability to make commitments.
