Sexual Sins and Sanctified Bodies Part 1b

February 7, 2011
Our sexual purity is something we should not only value and guard, but it is something that should be important to us. Today on Focal Point we’ll see that God cares about your body, and what you do with it. Perhaps you’re thinking right now, “Well, I’ve already blown it in that area, so who cares?” Pastor Mike Fabarez will show those of us who have, that we can work vigilantly to regain our purity and move forward with a new respect about it. We’ll be continuing our series, “Sexual Sins and Sanctified Bodies,” today.

Have you ever thrown something away and later discovered that it was something valuable? Maybe you can relate to Mike’s baseball card experience he’ll share in a second. Or perhaps like me, you’ve sold something at a garage sale and later regreted it? Today on Focal Point we’ll discover the value of our sexual purity, before we carelessly throw it away. Sexual Sins and Sanctified Bodies is the title Pastor Mike Fabarez has given the series we begin today on Focal Point. On this Friday broadcast we’ll take a look at how the Manufacturer views our bodies, as we explore an area of scripture dealing with sexual purity and the importance of it.

Today pastor Mike Fabarez opens Hebrews 3 for some valuable insights regarding faithfulness. In fact, we’ve titled this series we’re in, “Faithful to God.” Faithfulness to our Lord really should be our goal in life. If you’ll remember when we left you yesterday, Mike was encouraging us to be receptive to God’s words. That’s a key ingredient for being loyal to Christ. There are two others, which we’ll bring to your attention today.

Last time on Focal Point we couldn’t have received a better picture of faithfulness, as we looked at the life of Christ. Now on the flip side of the coin, today we look at a bad example. This one is of unfaithfulness. Pastor Mike Fabarez will draw today’s study from Hebrews three, as well as the Old Testament, and encourage us toward faithful living. Faithful living on earth, really has a bearing on our eternal placement in the Kingdom to come.

In Luke 18 we find the question,"When the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?" Will He find us faithful? We'll observe the faithfulness of Christ and be encouraged to be faithful ourselves today on Focal Point with Mike Fabarez. The third chapter of Hebrews is really all about faithfulness and describes the kind of faithfulness God desires of us. He left us a perfect example to follow, and of course that's Christ.

Today pastor Mike Fabarez begins a four part series on faithfulness to God. We start things off by looking at Moses, who though he was far from perfect, stands out in Scripture as one who was loyal and faithful to God even when it was costly. Wouldn’t you like that to be said of you? Let’s see what it takes to receive the title, “Faithful!”

Last time we were together, Mike Fabarez was encouraging us to think rightly of ourselves. We learned that really God owns us, and our lives ought to reflect that. Now as we come back to Hebrews 3:1 we’re encouraged to think of Jesus as our everything. He’s everything we need from God, and everything God needs from us. And then we need to think about Jesus more often. Christianity is more than a creed, and it’s something that controls our thinking and lives.

If asked to define Christianity would you do so in terms of a creed or set of beliefs? Many would. But today on Focal Point, Pastor Mike Fabarez will show us that it’s so much more than that. As Mike is about to put it, it’s really not a belief that you hold but a belief that holds you. Christianity is more than a creed, and it starts by realizing God owns us, and that we’re set apart for Him.

Communion... that’s one of the sacraments the church is to observe today. Do we really understand the cost of Christ coming, and the benefits? The cost and benefit of the incarnation is today’s Focal Point. We’ll not only gain some appreciation of the cost of Christ coming to save us from our sins, but also we’ll take some time to celebrate the incredible benefits in light of the incarnation.

Pastor Mike Fabarez is going verse by verse through Hebrews, and today our Focal Point is the cost of Christ’s coming. Our aim is to gain a greater appreciation for the one who left the riches of heaven to become one of us. We celebrate that at Christmas time, but do we really understand the costs and benefits of the incarnation? Some are under the illusion that He merely came to make life a little better for us, or save us from our problems. Pastor Mike shows us why Jesus really came.

There’s no shortage of pain, suffering and injustice in our world today, but how should the Christian respond to it all? Last time Mike Fabarez explored the problem with our world today. He showed us that God has chosen to delegate His authority right now. Those He has delegated it to are sinful, and it’s because of that sin that we find injustice and suffering. The story doesn’t end there though. We’re about to see that God will one day take back the authority He has delegated, and that brings a wondeful hope with it!
