From Lust to Love (I Thessalonians 4:1-8)

Is it possible to live a life of holiness in a world obsessed with sexual gratification? In this sermon, we explore the final of the seven deadly sins: Lust. Drawing from C.S. Lewis’s The Screwtape Letters, Thomas Aquinas, and the Apostle Paul’s letter to the Thessalonians, we dive deep into what it means to flee sexual immorality and pursue the sanctifying love of God. Sexual desire is a good gift from God, but the enemy seeks to distort it. Learn how to move from a life of "disordered desire" to one of self-control, holiness, and honor. We discuss why Paul prioritizes this issue in his letters and how the Gospel offers hope and restoration for those who have fallen. Key Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 4:1-8 What You’ll Learn: •The Definition of Lust: How C.S. Lewis and Thomas Aquinas define the distortion of God’s good gifts. •Why We Must Flee: Understanding "Porneia" and why sexual purity is essential for our sanctification. •The Purpose of Self-Control: Why discipline is like a dam that protects and directs power for good. •From Lust to Love: Moving beyond "purity culture" to a genuine pursuit of God and neighbor. •The Hope of the Gospel: Why you are never too far from God’s grace and redeeming love. #ChristianSermon #BibleStudy #1Thessalonians #OvercomingLust #Sanctification #Faith #JesusChrist #CSLewis #Purity #Gospel
