Did you know that the Bible says that the carnal mind is an enemy of God (Romans 8.7)? Last week, we looked at Samson, and we found out he lived a double-life. He was carnal but gave off the impression of being spiritual. There were times the Spirit of the Lord moved on Samson andContinue reading “Don’t Fall Off the Bridge 11: Don’t Be Carnal”

One of the things that Paul told the Corinthians was that you need to come out from among the people and be separate (2 Cor. 6.17-18). Samson did not do this, he liked living with worldly people, and his life story is a great lesson for every one of us. Samson had a really religiousContinue reading “Don’t Fall off the Bridge 10: Don’t Live a Double Life”

Jesus had a problem with the Pharisees because they were different on the inside to what they were on the outside! He actually called them – you can look it up in Matthew 23.27 – a bunch of white painted coffins. On the outside looking very beautiful and on the inside dead, unclean bones.

One of the saddest stories in the Bible is the story of Tamar, it is found in 2 Samuel 13. Amnon, Tamar’s half-brother rapes his sister.

Their brother was hurt, David was hurt, the relationship was destroyed, the nationContinue reading “Don’t Fall off the Bridge 06: The Emotional Pain of Fornication”

Last week, we looked at one of the most common ways people fall off the bridge to their destiny and miss out on what God has for them – fornication. You can read that post here. Now we will look at another issue about fornication that stops people getting to their destiny – fornication joinsContinue reading “Don’t Fall off the Bridge 05: Don’t Make A Deal That You Cannot Live With”

The Bible says some things very strongly. It says that fornication should “let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints” (Ephesians 5.3). Fornication means to have sex before you are married. If you are married, and have sex with someone you are not married to, that is called adultery. A lot ofContinue reading “Don’t Fall Off the Bridge 04 Fornication”

There is a story Jesus told, and it goes like this: 15 When they heard this, one of the dinner guests said to Jesus, “Someday God will have a kingdom feast, and how happy and privileged will be the ones who get to share in that joy!” 16 Jesus replied with this parable: “A man invited manyContinue reading “Don’t Fall Off the Bridge 03 A Sense of Urgency”
