  • rhsmoe, Christianity by no means denounces sex. Sexuality is indeed a part of life, and all Christians enjoy it (hopefully within the borders of marraige). The point Piper makes here is that becoming more focused on something like sex more than you are on God is dangerous. Saying "yes" to religion is not the same as saying "no" to sex.

  • What a powerful message! It is amazing how he puts forth the Truth in such a profound and honest way! Amen, bro! Without that transcendant relationship with Jesus Christ that makes every thing else look undesirable we are but "dogs in heat" running after the next best buzz! You don't hear preaching like this too often!

  • GLORY To God

  • Just forget about God... that deity (assuming He actually _DOES_ exist) has made it clear to us humans that He's not going to prove His existence, allow an objective conversation in English, etc. God just isn't worth the time of day. I gave Him a chance and called out to Him many times, but He never answers, so fuck Him.

    Religion is just a bunch of garbage.

  • There is nothing wrong with sex outside of marriage. Sex between two consenting adults is enjoyable and harms no one. It is sickening to see what this Jesus nonsense has done to inspire baseless guilt in the minds of adolescent kids.

  • I agree. The world would have us become fish- but air does exist.

  • @stevewinkle101 I have to say I agree with this teaching, but your comment will go down in my history is one of the best Youtube comments I ever read, and you are in some good company...

  • I definitley think God created sex, but he created it, so therefore it is a reflection of part of him, he is so better than it, he's better than everything, food, sex, sunsets, everything, he created everything, so it's just a little part of him, if we were to see Him, as he really is, we would just fall at His feet, and we would forget everything we enjoy or don't enjoy on Earth. He's that good, and I'm so desperate to hear and have more of Him

  • YES! HE IS! ^-^

    I can testify to that!

  • porn turns you gay and lead you to commit gay acts

  • this is just an excerpt, the sermon covers that.
