Running To Win

Dr. Erwin W. Lutzer

The Fall Ruined God's Plans, Part 1 of 2 (Ten Lies About God)

January 21, 2015

Consider the possibility that the fall of mankind was planned from the beginning. Could God have wanted Eve to pick that fatal fruit? Join us on a mind-expanding journey into God’s intentions for the new human race, a journey that may not go where you think.

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.

In Bible times, all roads led to Rome. Some feel that all spiritual roads lead to heaven, even those that never intersect. They say “anyone who is sincere in their belief deserves a shot at heaven.” Let’s look at fairness from God’s point of view.

Any marathon runner will tell you there’s only one goal line, and only one route that gets you there. Rules are rules. You have to follow the track to win. The trip will not be easy, but we invite you along for the journey.

There are just two ways to approach an understanding of God. Either you accept His written revelation, or you invent your own idols to worship. Pastor Lutzer shares more from Isaiah on coming to grips with the true God and the way He thinks.

As you run today’s race of life, get ready for a paradigm shift. God does not think like you do. He never has and never will.
January 9, 2015
Some theologians hold that God is without passion, that He has no feelings and therefore, cannot personally suffer. In the Bible, however, we see that God indeed can suffer and what that means to us.
January 8, 2015
Pause a moment to ponder perhaps the deepest mystery of all. How was God affected by the sacrifice of His own Son? Was He passive, or did He weep? In this message we’ll learn why the emotions of God really do matter.
