- What does Paul mean when he says that those who are sexually immoral, impure, or greedy are “idolaters?”
- Why and how does this impact their inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God?
- Pastor Steve talked about times when we cut something immoral/wrong out of our life entirely, and other times when we put a “spotlight” on the immoral/wrong thing to identify it.
- Why is it important to let the Holy Spirit guide when you decide whether to cut something out or not? Why not just cut out anything that is suspect, and tell everyone to do the same?
- How do you know when to do which? Give examples if possible from your own life of both choices.
