Right & Wrong

Right & Wrong
Pastor Blake Hanson | 4.27.22

Psalm 32:8–9 (NLT)

8 The Lord says, “I will guide you along the best pathway for your life. I will advise you and watch over you. 

9 Do not be like a senseless horse or mule that needs a bit and bridle to keep it under control.”

The starting point for right and wrong: is what says about the particular situation.

We live right around the wrong things by…
1) Understanding Jesus’ act so we can follow God’s . 

1 Thessalonians 4:1–2 (NLT)

1 Finally, dear brothers and sisters, we urge you in the name of the Lord Jesus to live in a way that pleases God, as we have taught you. You live this way already, and we encourage you to do so even more. 

2 For you remember what we taught you by the authority of the Lord Jesus.

Exodus 20:2–3 (NLT)

2 “I am the Lord your God, who rescued you from the land of Egypt, the place of your slavery. 

3 “You must not have any other god but me. 

2) Controlling our bodies with and . 

1 Thessalonians 4:3–8 (NLT)

3 God’s will is for you to be holy, so stay away from all sexual sin. 

4 Then each of you will control his own body and live in holiness and honor—

5 not in lustful passion like the pagans who do not know God and his ways. 

6 Never harm or cheat a fellow believer in this matter by violating his wife, for the Lord avenges all such sins, as we have solemnly warned you before. 

7 God has called us to live holy lives, not impure lives. 

8 Therefore, anyone who refuses to live by these rules is not disobeying human teaching but is rejecting God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you.

1 Corinthians 6:19–20 (NLT)

19 Don’t you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself, 

20 for God bought you with a high price. So you must honor God with your body.

3) Being known for our of others. 

1 Thessalonians 4:9–12 (NLT)

9 But we don’t need to write to you about the importance of loving each other, for God himself has taught you to love one another. 

10 Indeed, you already show your love for all the believers throughout Macedonia. Even so, dear brothers and sisters, we urge you to love them even more. 

11 Make it your goal to live a quiet life, minding your own business and working with your hands, just as we instructed you before. 

12 Then people who are not believers will respect the way you live, and you will not need to depend on others.

John 13:35 (NLT)

35 Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples.”

How we’re known by our love… (emphasis 4.11)

1. Live a life. 
2. Mind our own . 
3. Actively .
