Jesus Heals Our Desires
from Radiant Central Coast Hosted by Chad Bohi
Jesus is not only Lord over the life everyone can see. He is Lord over the invisible life too. In Matthew 5:27–30, Jesus moves beyond outward behavior and confronts the desires, fantasies, and hidden places of the heart. His words are severe because sin is severe—but His intention is not shame. Jesus brings what is hidden into the light because He wants to heal what has been distorted and restore what has been broken. In this message, we explore three kingdom truths: -The kingdom confronts what no one else can see. -The kingdom removes anything that distorts our identity. -The kingdom teaches desire how to love. Lust reduces image-bearers to objects and bends desire inward, but Jesus wants to heal our vision. He teaches us to see people with honor, to treat our bodies as temples, and to keep desire attached to love. The goal of the gospel is not simply to stop looking at the wrong things. It is to become the kind of people who see rightly. Scripture: Matthew 5:27–30
