About this listen
The Ten | Week 7 | August 4, 2025
Text: Exodus 20:14 / Matthew 5:27-30
Speaker: Jonathan Beames
Lust isn't just a temptation. It kills us from the inside out. Jesus takes the seventh commandment and shows us that our lustful thoughts that we are all guilty of are just as deadly as physical adultery. We have to confront the shame that surrounds sexual sin with the hope that only grace can provide in Christ.
Key Points:
- The Problem: Lust Kills
- Lust Denies the Personhood of Fellow Image Bearers.
- Lust Rejects God’s Design for Marriage (thus it is an attack on God’s authority)
- Lust Affirms Our Self Idolatry (breaks the first three commandments)
- Kill Your Lust at All Cost (Matthew 5:29-30)
Hebrews 12:4 ; Titus 2:11-14
- Fight Your Lust through the Grace of Christ
Shame says righteousness must be earned. Grace says righteousness is given.
Shame says you can’t control your desires. Grace says all your desires are fulfilled in Christ.
Shame says the only way to deal with your problem is to cover it up. Grace says God already knows your sin and he offers you freedom and hope in confession.
