The Church and Fashionable Vices

Text

1 Corinthians 6:12-13; 10:23-31

 

As Christ has set us free, we should strive to do what God wants us to do (and not whatever we want to do).

Introduction:

Vices:

  • immoral or wicked behavior, habit, trait or action.
  • a habit regarded as a weakness but not necessarily a serious fault
  • crutches that one finds himself/herself diving into with the simple excuse of a quick stress relief

Three crucial questions to ask ourselves:

I. Is it beneficial?

II. Is it addictive?

III. Is it constructive?

  • Paul repeatedly attempts to move us from an attitude of “it’s all about me” to a focus on the One who calls and saves us.
