Short Take #5: Ravi Zacharias is a Cautionary Tale

Here is another sort to the Christian worldview with David when the fear of standing before God in heaven give an account of our life and being a professing follower of his but all this practicing of sin that you put fear in us from when we face the first temptation to go down that particular dark road.

Another lesson we can take away from this is that this can happen to anyone, but there's a big box here, but it's not random like we have absolutely no control, like someone comes up behind us and pushes us off a cliff and I had no control, just standing there no back to that verse that we read earlier in the program from first Corinthians 10. No temptation has overtaken you but such as is common to man. So we all get tempted and God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will provide the way of escape also, so that you will be able to endure it. So were not just random bad luck that you we go down the sinful roads, no temptations we face are common, and God is faithful. He doesn't let us get tempted beyond the were able to bear to provide a way of escape, so that will be able to endure another words, when we sin, we are purposely driving past the off ramps of the freeway to sin that God is providing what is driving right past him. He's providing he's off ramps it we just go barreling down the road we can overcome temptation. God is providing ways of escape, but we need to take those avenues of escape, that God is offering to us. You think back to the story of Cain, the son of Adam and Eve back in Genesis, for Cain had killed his brother Abel. Cain had brought his own sacrifice of sacrifice that he thought would be good to sacrifice to God. He was jealous and angry at his brother, who brought the sacrifice that God commanded and God told Cain when he confronted him, sin is crouching at the door and its desire is for you but you must master it other words, sin can be mastered, it can be overcome and that's where the life of Joseph comes in because the life of Joseph in Scripture is lots of principles in Scripture commands flee immorality. Although things will get into that at the life of Joseph is the personalized illustration of how to face sexual temptation and how to overcome it. And that's were going to get into next week on the programs I can be a part three, and Ravi Zacharias. This can be a program on one of the biggest temptations in the biggest ways that so many Christians are get embroiled and enslaved to sin, start practicing it.

Whether it's sexual immorality. Whether is pornography whether it lost in the mind so many different ramifications in ways it is manifested until next week. I hope you tune into that program because it's a super important thing for us to understand how to overcome sexual temptation. This is been a short take on the Christian worldview with David.
