Preacher: Jeremy Herbert
Text: Ephesians 5, Genesis 1
Theme: Why We Must Have A Biblical View of Family
Notes:
The Church must be:
- Clear
- Compelling
- Compassionate
on the issues of sexuality and gender
God created the world with purpose, harmony, and order.
God uniquely made mankind in His image.
God’s commands for His creation provide basis for humans to flourish.
Why Did God Create Marriage?
- Sanctification–God uses the spouses to help one another become more holy
- Illustration–God uses the members of the marriage to picture God and the gospel
- Procreation–not just producing physical children to fulfil the cultural mandate given in Genesis
Why not just ‘let the world be the world’?
We are called to be salt & light–neither of which are inert,
and neither of which have a null impact where they reach.
