Jesus’ statements in John 15 about “abiding” are a common source of comfort for Christians today. But that wasn't their only intended purpose when Jesus spoke them to His disciples. In context, they also represent a call to action for all true believers; a call to be kept from our destructive natures by yielding ourselves to the true spiritual life that is in Jesus.

Whenever Jesus used the phrase, “I am,” He was purposely identifying Himself with God. And when He said that He was “the way,” He was giving us one way of understanding the power and manner of His work for mankind. And in this sermon, Pure Life Residential Program Director, Luke Imperato, connects these great statements about Jesus to the great need of the man or woman struggling with pornography addiction and other forms of sexual sin.

It’s easy for people who are repenting of sin to focus on what they shouldn’t do. But just as important as putting off wrong behavior is to begin walking in Christlike virtues. If no effort is made to put on this new nature, then we’re at risk of becoming a “do-nothing Christian.”

What would you ask Jesus if He were standing in front of you? Both the disciples, and the religious leaders of Israel had such an opportunity, but often what they asked Jesus were mixed with selfishness or even malintent. Yet without fail, Jesus answered the questions of all who came to Him with perfect wisdom, compassion and truth. In today’s message, Dustin Renz brings us into a Q&A session between Jesus and the men of His day and encourages us to find answers to the questions in our lives from what He had to say to them.

Those who desire to be free from sexual addiction often try many different remedies to break free. But despite all their effort, many often remain trapped and hopeless in their sin. Why is this? Often, what is missing is a real knowledge of the power of God. If you desire a greater manifestation of God’s power in your life, then we pray that you find today’s message challenging & encouraging.

In this special Pure Life Chapel Service, four members of our leadership team spoke about God's goodness and His authority. It's vital for those bound in sexual addiction to come under God's authority, and to see it rightly, in order to have real power over their sin. We hope that this series of short talks blesses you and helps you see the beauty of God's authority in our lives.
