In this midweek podcast, Pastor Tim addresses some questions he received on the previous sermon, Isn’t Christianity Homophobic?Timeline:Quotes:At the resurrection, no one who has chosen Jesus over sexual fulfillment will have missed out. Compared with that relationship, human marriage will seem like a toy car next to a Tesla, or a kiss on an envelope versus a lover’s embrace.-Rebecca McLaughlin, Confronting ChristianityThe Christian needs another Christian who speaks God’s Word to him. He needs him again and again when he becomes uncertain and discouraged, for by himself he cannot help himself without belying the truth. He needs his brother man as a bearer and proclaimer of the divine word of salvation. He needs his brother solely because of Jesus Christ. The Christ in his own heart is weaker than the Christ in the word of his brother; his own heart is uncertain, his brother’s is sure.-Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Life TogetherWhen Christ calls a man, he bids him to come and die.-Dietrich Bonhoeffer, The Cost of DiscipleshipIf anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.-Jesus ChristLinks:PCA Study Paper on Homosexuality: https://pcahistory.org/pca/digest/studies/2021_human_sexuality_report.pdfPastor Steve’s sermon on Church Hurt: https://newlifeithaca.org/sermons/how-can-i-be-in-the-church-when-it-has-hurt-me-and-so-many-others-hard-questions-real-answers-part-8/The intro and outro music is from “We Will Feast in the House of Zion” provided by Sandra McCracken and with her permission.
