Overcoming Lust (Thoughts and Videos)

Lust is one of the biggest problems plaguing our young people and adults alike within our nation. Jesus says in Matthew 5,

27"You have heard that it was said, 'Do not commit adultery.'28But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

This is because Lust is exactly the thing that leads someone into a vicious self-destructing cycle of sexual immorality. With teen pregnancy (and many leading to abortions), "sex-ting," STD's and unwanted addictions at an all-time high, there needs to be a change in our own Christian life-styles. The reason being, we may be the only physical representation of Jesus many people see. Jesus says in Matthew 5,

13"You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men.

14"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden.

Watch these videos and apply the teaching, so people can really see the Light of Christ in us and WANT what we have. Time is short and Jesus will return. Will He be pleased with us?
