Our final sin, as is likely expected, is Lust. However, it is tied to a great blessing, sex, given to us by God to be enjoyed within marriage, that we want to take this topic in two parts: in the first, explaining why sex and sexuality is good in its intended place; and in the second, explaining how lust twists the beautiful good of intimacy that was given to us.

The Psalmist writes, "The Lord is on my side; I will not fear. What can man do to me?" (Psalm 118:6) And yet, we are so often swayed in thought, word, and deed by the Fear of Man, the second-to-last sin on our list.Fear of Man, or rather fearing the thoughts and judgments of other people, can so often hide behind the guise of empathy, of people-pleasing, of wanting to do what is best for others. And yet, it can so easily "lay a snare" for Christians, to be caught in a trap of longing for others' approval, while true safety and gospel rest comes through trust in the Lord (Proverbs 29:25). For seeking the approval of man is futile and worthless, and cannot be accomplished in congruence with a life committed to Christ, as Paul writes, "If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ" (Galatians 1:10). Though commendation and recognition from one's peers is a temptation unlike any other, "It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in man" (Psalm 118:8).So join us to learn how this so often manifests, how to help one another through it, and how to live a life free of fear of man!Be sure to come back every Tuesday for new episodes and Thursday for bonus content, and find us on the following platforms as well:Find us on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/oneanotherpodcast?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==Find us on YouTube:https://youtube.com/@oneanotherpodcast?si=7-JJ9raR9Fr0cQ9bFind us on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/4RGIMhed26LZsl9TI56yPN?si=2924a1be839549b9Find us on Apple Podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/one-another/id1797190030

The Lord Jesus once said, "one's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions" (Luke 12:18)--and yet, our sinful hearts so often guide our eyes to longingly gaze with Greed, Covetousness, and Envy upon the things of the earth which we think will make us complete... but "what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his soul?" (Mark 8:36). Rather, the man who lays up treasures for himself on this earth "is not rich toward God" (Luke 12:21).As we dive into these three sins in this episode, how do we define and differentiate them... or should we? What are some characteristic ways that we see them in the lives of men and women of the faith, and how does Christ's atoning work and saving grace give us the strength to fight these temptations?

As we navigate refraining from Unrighteous Anger, what are some places and avenues in which we can exercise righteous anger? And how do we make sure it follows biblical precedents?

Today we discuss another sin with yet another righteous counterpart: Unrighteous Anger.Proverbs 14:29 says, "Whoever is slow to anger has great understanding, but he who has a hasty temper exalts folly." We are so often prone to listen to the flame of anger that is kindled in our sinful hearts, that which so quickly catches and grows into malice and strife (Proverbs 30:33)--for the "anger of man" so often leads to sin, and does not promote a righteous, God-fearing life (James 1:20). So how do we kill unrighteous anger in our lives? And how do we differentiate it with righteous anger, knowing when to both "overcome evil with good" (Romans 12:21) and "be angry and do not sin" (Ephesians 4:26)?

We're back from our Easter break with our next topic: Anxiety.Paul writes, "do not be anxious about anything" (Philippians 4:6-7). Jesus tells us clearly, "do not be anxious about your life" (Matthew 6:25-34). And yet, on the Mount of Olives, Jesus experiences a period of agony and stress over his coming sacrifice, something we can interpret as anxiety (Luke 22:44). So how do we understand what is righteous anxiety, and more importantly how do we identify and sanctify our unrighteous tendencies to doubt and mistrust the Lord? Join us in this episode as we dissect what it is to be anxious, and how best to exemplify the opposite in our Christian walk.Be sure to come back every Tuesday for new episodes and Thursday for bonus content, and find us on the following platforms as well:Find us on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/oneanotherpodcast?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==Find us on YouTube:https://youtube.com/@oneanotherpodcast?si=7-JJ9raR9Fr0cQ9bFind us on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/4RGIMhed26LZsl9TI56yPN?si=2924a1be839549b9Find us on Apple Podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/one-another/id1797190030
