Respectable Sins Ep.3 | Fleeing From Sexual Immorality

This powerful exploration of 1 Corinthians 6:9-20 confronts us with an uncomfortable truth: sexual immorality isn't just a cultural issue—it's a spiritual battleground that affects every believer.

The message walks us through Paul's stark list of sins that exclude people from God's kingdom, but then offers the transformative hope found in verse 11: 'And such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified.' We're reminded that sexual immorality isn't a new problem—from Lot's daughters to King David to Solomon's thousand wives, Scripture is filled with warnings about sexual sin's destructive power.

Yet the beauty of this passage lies not in condemnation but in redemption. We've been bought with a price through Christ's sacrifice, and our bodies are now temples of the Holy Spirit. The call isn't merely to avoid sin through willpower or rules, but to turn our gaze toward Christ so completely that everything else fades away.

Like Charles Spurgeon discovered at age fifteen when he heard 'Look to Jesus Christ'—salvation and transformation come through looking to Him. When we fix our eyes on the cross, where Jesus bore the weight of our sexual brokenness, we find both the motivation and power to flee from immorality and run toward holiness.
