 Power to Be HolyThis discussion is based on 2Peter 1:3-11 and since it is rather long, I am going to summarize my thoughts. However I encourage you to take out your Bible and read it for yourself. As Peter is preaching to the early church, there was a concern about some of the... His Commands Are Not BurdensomeSo much of what I write about is to challenge the Christian to look at what the Lord commands and act the way the Bible tells us to. This not only includes turning from the sin in our lives, but also to take up our cross and do the work... Sexual Immorality and the ChristianIn the Bible, sexual immorality is the most common sin we are warned of. Various sins are listed in many places in the Bible, but sins of a sexual nature seem to dominate them. Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed primarily because of sexual immorality.
