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.

Most so-called prophets bathe their predictions in mystery and allegory. Few give the names of specific places and people as the Bible does. Nostradamus never predicted the death of a great city the way the Bible tells of ancient Tyre’s judgment.

One of the key reasons for trusting the Bible is its accuracy in predicting the future. Its prophecies have been fulfilled again and again.

Lots of scholars take pot shots at the Bible, claiming it’s not historically accurate. The trouble is, mounting evidence proves otherwise. All it takes is a trip to Israel to verify the uncanny precision of the Bible’s geographical references. The more the Bible is attacked, the better it looks.

Most of us believe what we read in the newspaper. After all, no critical scholars hold seminars to debunk the New York Times. Though they are slow to attack a well-known newspaper, critics are quick to debunk the Bible. And since the Bible is under perennial attack for its accuracy, just how reliable is it? Can it stand up to its critics?

We’ve had the Bible on the witness stand for a few days, and it’s told us over 1,500 times that the Word of the Lord was communicated through its authors. These men spoke with a single voice, although they wrote over a 1,600-year span of time. We now have a choice: either this book is true, or it is the biggest lie ever perpetrated. Which is it?

As the cross-examination begins, we find a book that claims to speak for God. In fact, it claims God spoke through its authors. Today we will look at the claims the Bible makes for itself.

The Bible was written by 40 authors over a period of 1,600 years — still you can see a clear unity despite the diversity of its authors. And this book makes some remarkable claims for itself.
