How Did I Get Here? (16 of 47)
Series: The Genesis Project
Pastor Chris Brown
Genesis 19
Sin's slippery slope:
Genesis 19, Psalm 1, 1 Corinthians 15:33, 2 Peter 2:6-10
? A good heart with a bad compass will take you to the wrong place every time.
Right ladder…wrong wall:
Genesis 19, Matthew 16:24-27
? Signs that I may be living closer to Sodom than I think.
- Lack of prayer and relationship with God.
- Lack of spiritual influence on those around me.
- Lack of family unity and values.
- A track record of bad decision making.
Where do I go from here?
Genesis 19, 2 Peter 3:9-10, 1 Corinthians 6:9-11, Romans 12:1-2, 1 Peter 5:5-11
? There is nothing more urgent than dealing with our sin.
? Hate sin for what it does, not for how it feels.
? "Flee for your lives" doesn't mean take baby steps.
? Don't turn back.
? Perfection is not the answer…repentance is.
