Matthew 5:27-32 | The Appearance of Honey
Pastor Blaine continues preaching through Matthew 5 as Jesus addresses his disciples regarding adultery and lust.
Matthew 5:27-32
“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart. If your right eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. For it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body be thrown into hell. And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. For it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body go into hell.
“It was also said, ‘Whoever divorces his wife, let him give her a certificate of divorce.’ But I say to you that everyone who divorces his wife, except on the ground of sexual immorality, makes her commit adultery, and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery."
Sermon Notes:
Main Idea: Sexual Purity Is Worth the Fight
I. Jesus Elevates Our Understanding of Marital Faithfulness
II. Jesus Elevates Our Response to Sexual Sin
Discussion Questions:
1. Sexual purity is worth the difficult fight. We could all name many names of friends, family, and sadly those in ministry who have no fought for sexual purity. How should we fight for sexual purity? What Scriptures should we use for this?
2. How does Matthew 5:28-30 speak to both men and women?
3. Jesus elevates our response to sexual sin in Matthew 5:29-30. Why is sexual sin taken so seriously? What is marriage a picture of?
4. Discuss the 5 C’s for fighting sexual sin:
-Cut off temptation
-Confess your sin
-Capture every thought
-Cultivate affections
-Come to Christ
