This word appears 25 times in the New Testament* Key texts 1 Corinthians 6 1 Timothy 1 Romans 1 The Bible: Sexual Lust is sin why: self-gratifying, self-satisfying (pornography, fantasies, “checking out”…) 13 Let us walk properly as in the daytime, not in orgies and drunkenness, not in sexual immorality and sensuality, not in quarreling and jealousy. 14 But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to gratify its desires. — Romans 13v13-14 (ESV) 27 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.' 28 But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 29 If your right eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. For it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body be thrown into hell. — Matthew 5v27-29 (ESV) The Bible: Sex outside of marriage is sin why: the meaning of sex Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral. — Hebrews 13v4 (ESV) The Bible: Homosexuality is sin (1 Cor. 6, 1 Tim 1) why: design & destiny rebuttal: “But Jesus never addressed this!” 3 Some Pharisees came to him to test him. They asked, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any and every reason?”4 “Haven't you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,' 5 and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh'? 6 So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.” — Matthew 19v3-6 (NIV) HOMOSEXUALITY ISNT A PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED ITS A GROUP OF PEOPLE TO BE LOVED Can I be sexually immoral and be a Christian? We to need clarify: a desire for illicit sexual activity participation in activity (repentant heart?) identification and activism How to address sexual sin in your life: Tell someone Drop the act Cling to Jesus For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost. — Luke 19v10 (NIV) Would Jesus judge an entire group of people because their sin is more open? Would Jesus give up on someone just because they're different? The Bible is the manual, Jesus is the model.

The Portage church of Christ is a group of pre-denominational Christians that are striving to serve the Lord together. Our goal is to please God, and we believe that the best way to do that is to follow the pattern that was established by the churches in the first century and revealed in the New Testament. We have no creed or doctrine except the Bible and we follow the Bible only. We strive for unity in the teaching of New Testament doctrine. Our congregation is not part of, or subject to, any larger man-made religious organization. We are a completely autonomous congregation. We are locally governed, just as the church in the first century was. How does one becomes a member of this church congregation? The exact same way as seen in the Biblical accounts. On the day of Pentecost following Jesus' resurrection, people who repented and were baptized were saved (Acts 2:38) and the saved were added to the church (Acts 2:47). These saved people were members of the body, or church (Colossians 1:18). To become a Christian, the Bible teaches: Hear the gospel (Rom. 10:17) Believe that Jesus Christ is the son of God (John 8:24, 58, Heb. 11:6) Repent of past sins (Luke 13:3, 5) Confess Jesus as Lord (Matt. 10:32-33, Rom. 10:9-10) Be baptized for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38, Mark 16:16) Remain Faithful to Christ (Rev. 2:10, 2 Tim 4:7-8)

When we are at our worst, it is often because something has deeply hurt us. Hurt people hurt people. But what if the opposite is also true? What if loved people love people? This is the point the apostle Paul is trying to make in Ephesians 5. Paul knows we will never love each other, our neighbors as ourselves, until we know how loved we are. He calls the church, those who follow Jesus, beloved children of God. For those of you who have children in your lives, you know the look on a child's face when they know they are loved. There is a delight, an ease when a person feels like someone takes a genuine interest in them. A safety that you are in the love and care of someone else. Loved people love people.

Kingdom People6. Marriage and Divorce in the Kingdom Dan Bidwell, Senior Pastor Matthew 19:1-12 2 October 2022 As we come to todays passage about Marriage and Divorce in the Kingdom, I realize we are entering territory where I need to tread very lightly. Because marriage breakdown is one of those topics that touches all of us in some way or another, whether personally or amongst family members or friends. Marriage breakdown causes deep wounds. And sometimes those wounds are multiplied by the way that divorce is talked about, or whispered about, in church. So today, I want to speak into that space of marriage and divorce, so that it isnt the subject of whispers and innuendo. Because I want us to be a church where the grace and mercy of Jesus and his kingdom is extended to every person who walks through the doors. But like I said, that means I need to tread very lightly. So will you pray with me now, that this message comes to each of us with that mercy and grace of Jesus and his kingdom? Our heavenly Father, you are the God of love, and you love each of us dearly. As we speak about matters of the heart, and matters that leave deep wounds, will you bring peace and grace into the conversation. Will you teach us and guide us now into all truth by your life-giving Spirit. In Jesus name we pray, Amen. Well you have joined us today in the middle of our sermon series working our way through Matthew chapters 17-21. Were calling it Kingdom People because its all about the way that God wants us to live out our faith on earth as it is in heaven. And for the last few weeks, we have been deep in Christian ethics. Jesus has been teaching us about how to think Christianly about conflict and forgiveness, and what they look like in the church family. And that sets the scene for the question that Jesus is asked in our passage today. (v3) The Pharisees Trap3 Some Pharisees came to him to test [Jesus]. They asked, Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any and every reason? (Matthew 19:3) The Pharisees were the most religiously conservative Jews (of Jesus day). The Pharisees prided themselves on following the OT law to the letter, and they considered their rabbis to be the moral arbiters of religion. 1 And so they come to Jesus with a question of ethics. Its actually a trap, or a test it says in v3. They want to know which side of the religious divide Jesus falls on when it comes to his ethics: conservative or liberal. You see, there were two prominent Jewish teachers in Jesus day, Shammai and Hillel. Shammai was the conservative, and Hillel the liberal. And they both interpreted Moses teaching about divorce differently.1 The conservative Shammai taught that the only lawful reason for divorce was adultery. But Hillel took a liberal approach to what Moses said in Deuteronomy 24:1. That verse talks about divorce when a husband finds (and I quote) something indecent about his wife. Hillel interpreted that to mean that a husband could divorce his wife for any and every reason, including burning the dinner! So, the conservatives ask Jesus, which side does he fall on? Our side or theirs? BTW this is an interesting question in our context. California was the first state to permit no- fault divorce in 1970 (when Ronald Reagan was Governor). Since then every other state has followed suit. If there is a silver lining, at least now divorce no longer requires that somebody be judged the at-fault party. But that doesnt make divorce any less messy. In the US approximately 50% of all marriages end in divorce, although research says that number is dropping slightly. Something like 28% of Christian marriages end in divorce.2 And when it comes to dealing with divorce in the church, we find that some churches and denominations are very conservative when it comes to divorce and remarriage, and others are very liberal. Some denominations forbid all divorce, where others are more permissive. So how do we come to a genuinely Christian understanding of divorce? The answer is very carefully. We start by very carefully unpacking what the Bible says, and then we check that we have read it with humility and generosity, and then we check it against others who have taken the same approach. Sometimes two people might read the same scripture and come to a different conclusion. And that might happen today. You might hear me and think no, he has it wrong. I might. But what Im going to say is the fruit of lots of study, and lots of prayer, and lots of reflection. And Im happy to discuss it more privately at a later time. Thats part of doing ethics together. 1 Deuteronomy 24:1 something indecent2 https://www.wf-lawyers.com/divorce-statistics-and-facts/ 2 So what does Jesus say about divorce? The Purpose of MarriageJesus starts by taking his listeners back to the OT, back to Gods original purposes for marriage. (v4) Jesus quotes from the very first book of the Bible, from Genesis 1:27 and 2:24 to establish the idea of marriage the way that God intended it. First, he reminds them that marriage was designed by God. It was the Creator who created people, and Jesus tells us that it was the Creator who ordained marriage as part of his good creation. Second, Jesus asserts that marriage is to be complementary. (v4) says God made them male and female, and he intends marriage to be between a man and a woman. They are made for each other by Gods design. Thirdly, marriage is to be permanent. In a marriage, the man and the woman are united and the two will become one flesh. This is not the kind of relationship that should be easily broken. You wouldnt tear off your own arm or leg, and so we ought not tear apart the one-flesh relationship that God has created within marriage. This one flesh idea also affirms the goodness of sexuality, one of Gods good gifts to his people. In a marriage, a husband and wifes physical bodies are joined and from their one flesh comes a lifelong reminder of their union children, who are literally part mom and part dad. Children are one of Gods blessings to his people in Genesis he wants us to be fruitful and multiply. The fourth thing Jesus teaches about marriage is that it is to be exclusive. The two become one, and God wants nothing to come between a husband and wife, or specifically (v6) no one must separate them. Because its not just that we choose to be joined to one person, then to another as our heart desires. No, it is God who joins us together (v6) in a one-flesh, inseparable relationship.3 3 Based on Michael Green, The Message of Matthew (BST, p202-203) 3 4 Havent you read, he replied, that at the beginning the Creator made them male and female, 5 and said, For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh? 6 So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate. (Matthew 19:4-6) ~ Now this is a very high standard for marriage. It is Gods original intention for what marriages should be like wonderful, safe, loving relationships that endure. Of course, that was all before the fall. At the fall, the first husband and wife, Adam and Eve, disobeyed God and brought sin and separation into the world. From that moment, every human relationship has shared elements of the dysfunction of Adam and Eve. It is difficult to attain that high ideal for marriage the way that God intended it. And thats why the fifth thing this passage teaches us is that marriage isnt for everyone. (v10) 10 The disciples said to him, If this is the situation between a husband and wife, it is better not to marry.11 Jesus replied, Not everyone can accept this word, but only those to whom it has been given. (Matthew 19:10-11) In a world that says we can only find happiness and fulfilment in sexual relationships, Jesus says actually for some people it is better not to marry. In v12 he says that there are some people who choose to be eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. That is, there are some people who choose to remain unmarried because that is the pathway that God opens up for them in life. And this is not the time for a sermon about singleness, but remember that Jesus himself never married, never had children and yet we would consider him the most loved and most loving human who has ever walked the earth. Jesus teaches us that intimacy with God is even more fulfilling than the intimacy of the marriage relationship, and more permanent than marriage which ends with death. Marriage itself is used to describe the relationship between Jesus and the church: a wonderful, loving, safe, permanent, protective and grace-filled relationship... Thats the picture Jesus paints of marriage.But the Pharisees want to know about the ethics of divorce. (v7) 7 Why then, they asked, did Moses command that a man give his wife a certificate of divorce and send her away? (Matthew 19:7) The Possibility of Divorce The Bible is really clear that divorce is not part of Gods plan for marriage. In Malachi 2:16, God says he hates divorce, or at least he says there is something terrible about divorce when a man hates his wife, and divorces the one he ought to have protected. There is a kind of violence about it, God says. 4 And historically, that was often the case with divorce. In those very early days of Moses, divorce was a fact of life for Gods people, even if it wasnt part of Gods purposes for marriage. Divorce happened, and it happened to women who were in a very vulnerable position. In ancient cultures, women were often treated as property, and while a man may divorce a woman and marry another, he could come back at any time and claim rights over the previously divorced wife if he so chose. But the certificate of divorce declared the legal dissolution of the marriage. The certificate of divorce meant this woman could remarry without fear of her former husband returning to claim her again. Without this she had no hope of convincing another man to marry her. And so Gods command about providing a certificate of divorce was actually a protective measure. It was a necessary concession in a society that had undermined the goodness of marriage. And thats what Jesus says in v8: 8 Jesus replied, Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because your hearts were hard. But it was not this way from the beginning. 9 I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery. (Matthew 19:8-9) Its interesting that Jesus is talking to men, isnt it? I know divorce isnt one-sided, but for their male-dominated society, the power was in the hands of men. And Jesus had to teach the men to respect the sanctity of marriage. You see, Jesus doesnt declare that divorce is a command of God. He said it is something that Moses permitted, because of the hardness of the human heart. Sin makes us mess up even the relationships that mean the most to us. Thats why we need to forgive, and forgive without ceasing. (That was our lesson from last week.) But its not always enough. Sometimes our hearts are too hard, and our relationships are too broken to save. And thats why God allows the possibility of divorce. ~ You might have been at a church which teaches that divorce is sinful. I think here, Jesus says divorce is a fact of life in a broken and sinful world. Its not the ideal, but where divorce happens, Jesus recognizes it and takes steps to protect the vulnerable. Im going to say more about that in a moment.5 Remarriage after divorce? But let me jump back into v9. Because Jesus gives a new teaching about divorce and remarriage. He says: 9 I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery. (Matthew 19:9) Some commentators call this The Matthean Exception. Their interpretation of this verse is that sexual immorality is the only legitimate reason why a person might ask for divorce. And there is good reason for that. Adultery, or sex with a person outside of the one-flesh marriage relationship, tears at the fabric of a relationship. The two become one, but then you add someone else into the mix, and the sanctity of the one-flesh relationship is torn apart. But the word Jesus used for sexual immorality means more than just physical adultery. Porneia is the Greek root behind our word pornography. Porneia encompasses a whole host of sexual thinking and activities that are destructive to relationships. From lustful thoughts, to inappropriate relationships, to instant messaging, to acting out sexually online. Jesus says these can be relationship killers, as much as physical adultery. We mustnt be fooled. Jesus says: anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. (Matthew 5:27) And I think thats the intention behind Jesus comment in v9. Look closely at what it says about the person who initiates the divorce. He says that anyone who divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery. Jesus was condemning the idea of people getting rid of one spouse in order to be with someone else. Thats adultery! And in Matthew 5:32, Jesus says that when a divorce happens like that, the abandoned wife is actually the victim of the husbands adultery. Many Christian traditions take these verses to say that any remarriage after divorce makes a person an adulterer. Whether they were the person who committed adultery, or the victim. But is that what Jesus is really saying? If I read Jesus correctly, he is saying that remarriage is a possibility, at least for the person who is the innocent party. The adultery of the spouse has effectively ended the marriage, because he or she has broken the one-flesh union. And the innocent divorcee is free to remarry. Divorce is the ending of a marriage before death. Now I know some will consider this a controversial interpretation, but Im just trying to read Jesus words faithfully. 6 Because it seems to me that Jesus would want justice for the victim of adultery, rather than condemn them to a life of celibacy because of somebody elses sin. That wouldnt seem fair. And I take it that this is true of other sins that cause the death of a marriage. Things like abandonment, and abuse. Gods concession of divorce was there to protect the weak and vulnerable. Surely he would protect in those circumstances... And surely he would set the victim free to marry again, if that first marriage was truly dead. Some will agree with me, and some wont. In all things charity... Its tricky, isnt it, applying kingdom ethics? We need to read the scriptures carefully, and with humility, and with generosity. As Ive read different books and papers this week about divorce, Ive had to weigh arguments and decide if they are biblically faithful. But at the end of the day, our discussion is not about the legal arguments for and against divorce or remarriage. Were actually talking about real people, and real marriages, and real heartbreak and pain and sorrow that comes from the breakdown of marriages. And so when we speak about this subject, were never speaking in a vacuum. We have all felt the effects of divorce to a certain degree, and some more than others. So as a church, I want us to practice kingdom ethics. I want us to think like Jesus, and speak like Jesus. Because Jesus always infused his conversations with grace and mercy, especially to those who were hurting. And when a person joins our church family here, no matter what their background, I want them to know the same Christ-like grace and mercy through everything we say and do. Because at the end of the day, we are all victims of the brokenness that comes from sin. And were all guilty of bringing brokenness into the relationships that mean the most to us. None of us are innocent in that sense. And yet our Lord is consistently compassionate to those who fail, repent, and come back to him for restoration. There is no sin too great for the Lord to forgive, and no heart too broken for him to fix. Isnt that good news? Lets pray. 7

In our text for today Paul tells the Thessalonians and us,how to avoid sexual immorality.

Q&A #207: Pastors Doug, and Kyle discuss the following: 1. Doug and Kyle mentioned that the Bible talks about fornication and therefore “condemns” premarital sex. The Greek word used there is Porneia, and it's an umbrella term for sexual acts that seem to demean the image of God in another person. It's an umbrella term for acts like adultery, prostitution and sexual idolatry. It doesn't seem to relate to a committed couple who love each other and love Jesus. Thoughts? 2. if suffering is the result of free will for humans and heavenly beings, is a person responsible for cancer or other sicknesses because of their thoughts or actions, or because they've invited evil beings into their personal business somehow 3.. Do you believe that we are in the End Times right now? Why or why not? 4. What does Mark 9:49 mean in the context of Mark 9:50? 49 Everyone will be salted with fire. 50 “Salt is good, but if it loses its saltiness, how can you make it salty again? Have salt among yourselves, and be at peace with each other.” Does it mean to test each other?

Thank you Newsstand Studio at 1 Rockefeller Plaza for providing a place for me to record this episode for y’all! No more Brooklyn closet recording!!!   Warning: This episode covers a sensitive topic. I want to give you the opportunity to pause and listen when you are alone or use some headphones if you’re around delicate ears.   What does the Bible really say about sex? Is there a difference between sexual desire and desire for sex? How do I embrace my sexuality? What if I never meet someone?   My journey has been imperfect, but the stumbles led me to where I am today. In this episode, I share my own stumbles in waiting for marriage, including the relationships that made me really question my decision to wait for marriage. If you want to hear more of that journey, check out My Breaking Point, an episode of the podcast where I read an excerpt from my book, Sexless in the City. After that breaking point, I decided to make my faith my own and find out why I believed what I believed. Here is Part I of what I discovered. (Part II coming next week.)   Where + When does the Bible talk about Sex? The phrases “sexual immorality” or “fornification” popped up a lot in the New Testament and were always accompanied by the word “flee.”  In 1 Corinthians 6:18, Paul tells the church to flee from porneia. In 1 Corinthians 7:1–2 Paul encourages the Corinth church to get married in order to avoid the temptation of porneia. This set of verses is often used during biblical teaching on abstinence.  Porneia: blanket word that encapsulated a lot of different things: pedophilia, beastiality, adultery…in essence it’s this bundled term for any sexual activity outside of marriage. I can trust that if there is an invitation to flee from something it’s not because God hates sex or sexual activity…it’s because God has a more grand vision for whatever the thing is…   “Make a decision that is not rooted in ‘should’ or external expectation or shame, but one that is connected to abundance, wholeness, and freedom.” - Kat Harris   What Exactly is Sex? How do you define sex? Where did you come up with said definition? Is sex one act? Or a pool of experiences? What if you identify as LGBTQ+? Are the only people who can lose their virginity those who experience heterosexual attraction? What if your partner is experiencing impotence? What if you’re one of the 75% of females who only experience climax/orgasm through external stimulation? Does your deffinition of sex expand when you consider these questions?   “I didn’t want to redefine sex because if I did, I might not be a virgin anymore.” - Kat Harris   Next episode, I’ll unpack what I found in the Old Testament about God and sex. But for now...   Reflection Questions Have you felt as a person of faith that your virginity is tied to your standing with God? How would you define sex? Why would you define it that way? Where did you come up with said definition? What stood out to you today? Pool of experiences vs. vertical race to a misguided goal. Sit with it. Process.

Half way through Seabon 1. The gang gets to listen to creationists prattle on about dragons and Adam and Steve while not owning up to their brain melting intellectual dishonesties as they form a coalition with anti-integrationist movements. My hunch is that Creationism is still alive and well in y'all which is fine. But it's alright. We can read science and not get our asses smote. The resonance with Creationism and anti-integration alone ought to give us pause, but go ahead and think that dinosaurs are fake. I'm going to finish my beer. Burn Babylon Down.

They made this word mean specifically "sex before marriage" or "fornication." A larger conversation about sex work, the porn industry, and Christian purity culture needs to be had here. But literally some of y'all wont watch Game of Thrones because of sex. Y'all just won't admit y'all sexually frustrated and soft core porn makes you uncomfortably horny. Eat a snickers, ya nasty.

We continue with part 2 of porneia and how to be sanctified.

What is porneia, what are its perversions, and what is at the root of all sexual sin-

As the guys continue their discussion of sex and sexuality, they use the decisions of the Jerusalem council (Acts 15) to guide their understanding. But in order to truly grasp their logic, it requires an understanding and acceptance of Levitical laws. Tune in to see how the guys navigate the testaments to inform their views on sex. 

In this episode the guys continue their discussion of all things sex related and talk about the Greek word "porneia" and its usage in the Bible. Their conclusions and applications might surprise you!

Peter and Beau take a moment to discuss and kick around the idea of where the word porn comes from, it's Hebrew understanding, and the current social ramifications for throwing off sexual restraint. Such an important Podcast in our world today!

Proverbs 5 1 Corinthians 7

Butch Hancock said he was taught that "sex is the most awful, filthy thing on earth and you should save it for someone you love." We often throw around lies when we talk about sex, which is one of the reasons sex is so greatly misunderstood...
