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 1 Peter, believers are said to be part of “a royal priesthood.”Today, we consider our place in the local church. We will look at the role of the priesthood – past and present – and see that our status in the church may be higher than we think.

All too many believers have withdrawn from a local fellowship. Yet the body of Christ can only help each member grow when each member follows God’s call to meet together on a regular basis.

When God said “Be ye holy for I am holy,” He was giving us a command that our character grow to match His. As members of the body of Christ, we are called to live in sync with God’s will and purpose, and that includes a separation from sin.

It is easy to let the world press us into its mold. But God has a higher calling for His own, to enjoy the fruits of holy living. God clearly said “Be holy for I am holy.” This message will dispel common myths about holiness.

The Apostle Peter wrote of the believer’s living hope as a hope that becomes reality when Jesus appears. We love the One despite of never having seen Him. The result: “joy unspeakable and full of glory.”
