Your Body, Christ’s Body, and Sex

Your Body, Christ’s Body, and Sex

1 Corinthians 6.12-20 NIV 

Outline

• Slogan of the day: I have the right to do anything.

“The sexual latitude allowed to men by Greek public opinion was virtually unrestricted. Sexual relations of males with both boys and harlots were generally tolerated.” – Charles Talbert

• But! Not everything is beneficial.

• But! I will not be mastered.

“Amid the revolution, the questions nobody seems to even be asking are, is this making us better people? More loving people? Or even happier people? Are we thriving in a way we weren’t prior to “liberation“?” – John Mark Comer

• How you view sex depends on how you view the body.

Because your body has a divine beginning and divine ending, the middle matters!

“Sex cannot be understood merely as a momentary act that satisfies a transient natural urge.”- Richard Hays

• Flee!
  • What guardrails do you need?

Your body is created. Your body is purchased. Your body is united to Christ. And your body will be resurrected!
