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.

How would you react if a lawyer called, saying you had just inherited a million dollars from an unknown relative? Well, if you’re a believer, you have an eternal inheritance waiting for you in the world to come.  And it is worth far more than a mere million.

Believers in Jesus were chosen by God in eternity past. This involved setting divine love upon them and sending the Son to win them as His bride. When life seems uncertain, our future is secure in the love of our infinite God, who will preserve us to the day of glory.

As believers mature in the faith, they realize that salvation is not a result of our seeking God; it’s the result of God choosing us first. Why? If God had not done this, none of us would ever have chosen Him.

The hand of God moves in the lives of His people to bring about good even when the circumstances are difficult. Through the eye of faith, believers can be sure that a better day is coming, and we can live triumphantly no matter what comes our way.

Only a Christian can be certain that all of life is heading toward a future glory. That’s why we can know that all things, even the bad things, work together for the good of those who love God.

Christians get socked by life’s reversals like anyone else. But there is a crucial difference. The believer knows he or she has a permanent home where all suffering will cease. The future is bright for God’s people.

When life gets tough, some people try to grin and bear it; others crack under the pressure. But Christians can have a different perspective. We can look toward a future glory that makes our present suffering infinitesimal in comparison.

Do you think that life is tough? Just wait. Do you think you’ve always gotten the short end of life’s stick? Just wait. As a member of the body of Christ, your inheritance is earning interest right now in the bank of heaven. And soon, you’ll enter into your glorious inheritance.

What if you discovered you’re an heir to a fortune, and didn’t know it? An heir - that’s exactly what you are as a child of God. The Bible says “The Spirit bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs… joint heirs with Christ.” The world to come is ours.  
March 7, 2016
Believers in Christ have a whole new life, a life with new desires that God satisfies deeply as we walk in His light. Christians are “Children of an Awesome God,” being ushered into the kindness of their loving Father.
