Sunday Morning SoundBytes – 6/3/2018
Sunday’s message in the Hot Button Topics series was called Homosexuality: Caring for those who experience same-sex attraction, taken from 1 Corinthians 6:9-11. Here is a brief outline of the message:
I. Show compassion
A. We are all created in God’s image (Genesis 1:26-27)
B. We are all sinful, just in different ways (John 8:7; James 3:2)
C. Love your neighbor as yourself (Matthew 22:39)
II. Speak the truth
A. Homosexual relations are unnatural (Genesis 1:27; Romans 1:26-27)
B. Homosexual practice is sinful (Leviticus 18:22; 1 Timothy 1:8-10)
C. Homosexual sin is forgivable (1 Corinthians 6:9-11)
D. What about marriage?
1) Marriage is to be honored by all (Hebrews 13:4)
2) Marriage is between a man and a woman (Matthew 19:4-5)
III. Provide supportive friendships within the church
A. We are all family in the body of Christ (Matthew 12:49-50)
B. Be devoted in love; practice hospitality (Romans 12:9-13)
C. Encourage each other towards love and good works (Hebrews 10:24-25)
