The Real Meaning of Adultery
Nov 24, 2024 • Lead Pastor Dale Hester
Jesus raised the commandment against adultery from the act to the heart. In this Sermon on the Mount message, Pastor Dale explains why God gave the law and what Jesus was showing the religious people of His day.
1. God gave the law to protect marriage and families, to warn of the consequences of sin, and to show how much we need a Savior.
2. Jesus teaches that adultery begins in the heart, with a lustful look and desire.
3. Nothing we do on the outside can change the heart; as we anchor our faith in what Jesus did on the cross, the Holy Spirit is free to work in us.
