00:00:00.000 All right, listen, guys, I get it.
00:00:01.940 Many of you are unable to financially support this ministry
00:00:04.620 because you're spending your cash and your lives
00:00:06.920 on raising young children
00:00:08.540 in the fear and admonition of the Lord.
00:00:10.560 Praise God for you and that endeavor.
00:00:13.700 However, algorithms are a thing.
00:00:16.220 Shadow banning, sadly, is a thing.
00:00:18.840 And one major way that you can help to expand
00:00:21.600 the reach and effectiveness of this ministry
00:00:24.000 that doesn't cost you a dime
00:00:25.720 is by spending just a few moments
00:00:28.060 leaving us a five-star review.
00:00:31.180 Also, perhaps even more effective than that,
00:00:33.980 you can share our podcast with a friend.
00:00:36.400 We hope you'll take the time to do so.
00:00:38.300 Thank you so much.
00:00:39.580 God bless.
00:00:41.720 Jesus said, man cannot live on bread alone,
00:00:44.500 but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.
00:00:47.540 You're listening to Daily Truth.
00:00:52.140 The word purity in this context refers to moral purity,
00:00:55.740 but we could just look at good godly moral conduct which we've already addressed so i think more
00:01:01.160 particularly the purity here is speaking of sexual purity and it's not merely outward our behaviors
00:01:09.480 but even in the realm of our thoughts sexual immorality it always begins in the mind therefore
00:01:15.100 walking with christ means taking every thought captive to the obedience of christ and when we
00:01:22.040 fail we must be vigilant to acknowledge and confess our sin and then we must put on the
00:01:27.640 lord jesus christ and make no provision for the flesh in regard to its lust romans 13 14 i love
00:01:36.440 owen john owen and other other great writers such as the puritans they spoke of the of the sin
00:01:44.680 of making provisions for sin.
00:01:48.760 You may not actually be sinning
00:01:50.540 in a particular area
00:01:52.200 like sexual perversion, 0.93
00:01:54.360 sexual immorality. 0.95
00:01:55.880 But you can look 0.52
00:01:57.280 to the way you live.
00:01:59.960 You can look to the way
00:02:00.880 you spend your time.
00:02:02.120 You can look to all these different things
00:02:04.420 and see that
00:02:05.180 you're just a moment away.
00:02:08.500 You may not have sinned yet,
00:02:09.700 but you will.
00:02:10.860 Because you're making provisions
00:02:12.100 for the flesh. 0.74
00:02:14.280 Some men, you speak with them like,
00:02:16.840 I don't know why I keep struggling in this area.
00:02:18.340 How much TV do you watch?
00:02:21.140 I know why.
00:02:23.540 Some of you married men, it's like,
00:02:24.940 yeah, I'm still struggling in this area.
00:02:26.140 How often do you sleep with your wife?
00:02:29.180 I mean, God literally prescribes in His Word,
00:02:32.640 if you burn with passion, marry.
00:02:35.160 And it's not just so that you can hold hands.
00:02:38.300 The very clear implication there is
00:02:41.040 that God gives marriage 0.87
00:02:43.060 as a wall, 0.55
00:02:46.080 as a defense against lust.
00:02:51.820 So, how's your relationship with your wife?
00:02:56.280 Your intimacy with your wife?
00:02:57.880 What are your reading habits?
00:02:59.700 Are you disciplined?
00:03:01.380 Are you sleeping in every morning?
00:03:04.160 Are you getting up
00:03:05.420 and spending time with the Lord?
00:03:06.700 There are multiple things
00:03:07.900 that we can look at.
00:03:08.840 How much time do you spend at the beach?
00:03:10.300 I'm not saying it's inherently a sin for a man or woman to go to the beach
00:03:14.240 but if you're wrestling with lust and sinning on a regular basis
00:03:17.140 at the level of actions, at the level you're actually giving in
00:03:20.760 and you're going to the beach three times a week, then stop.
00:03:25.680 There's my biblical counsel for you. Stop it.
00:03:28.920 Stop it. If you have mastery and victory over that area
00:03:32.420 then sure, fine. But if you're saying, yeah man, I'm just really, really struggling
00:03:36.240 with lust and you're watching a ton of TV, going to the beach, your reading habits are
00:03:40.220 sloppy and you've been single for 35 years and there actually were people who would have married
00:03:48.120 you and you just turned them down it's your fault provisions for the flesh set an example in purity
00:03:57.020 thanks so much for listening but real quick before you go do us a small favor take a moment
00:04:02.260 and leave us a five-star review if you enjoyed the show this is undoubtedly the best way that
00:04:08.200 you can help us get this biblically faithful content to as many people as possible. Thanks so much.
