10-27-24 - Sunday Service | Rick McKinniss - Sanctification (and Sex)

Paul writes to the Thessalonian believers to pursue God's will, namely their sanctification by refraining from illicit sexual behavior. This was Discipleship 101 in the 1st century Greco-Roman world, a highly sexualized society, and similar to our culture today. What is the relationship between sex and the pursuit of holiness for the follower of Jesus? We look at the biblical context of God's design for sexual expression and how that applies to followers of Jesus today.
