Let's Talk About Sex A Bit More & Impurity And Greed Series

Contributed by Ken Henson on Oct 1, 2016

I think all of the things on this list, sexual immorality, unrighteousness and greed all share this component: they devalue something which is invaluable.

Ephesians 5:3 But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God’s holy people. Which is more valuable, the things we buy or the things we receive and give freely? Think about it. We pay a high price ...read more

On The Way To Jerusalem

Contributed by Martin Ellgar on May 10, 2015
