This Is The Will Of God-Pt 1

The sermon centers on the biblical mandate for sexual purity as a vital expression of sanctification, grounded in the believer's position in Christ and the call to conformity with His holiness. Drawing from 1 Thessalonians 4, it emphasizes that God's will for every believer is holiness, not uncleanness, and that this divine standard—rooted in Christ's authority and Scripture—is the sole foundation for moral living in a sexually saturated culture. The preacher underscores that while believers are already made holy in Christ, their daily walk must reflect that reality, requiring a deliberate commitment to resist worldly influences and instead be transformed by the renewing of the mind. By appealing to passages from 1 Peter, 2 Peter, Romans, and 2 Corinthians, the message affirms that sanctification is a progressive work of grace, driven by beholding Christ and living in the Spirit. Ultimately, the call is to reject all human or cultural standards in favor of Christ's unchanging Word, so that believers may grow in purity and live in a manner worthy of their calling, pleasing God and reflecting His character.
