Tuesday Gathering: What's in your way?
Last Tuesday Teacher: Shaena
Philippians 1:12-17 esv
I want you to know, brothers, that what has happened to me has really served to advance the gospel, so that it has become known throughout the whole imperial guard and to all the rest that my imprisonment is for Christ. And most of the brothers, having become confident in the Lord by my imprisonment, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.
Some indeed preach Christ from envy and rivalry, but others from good will. The latter do it out of love, knowing that I am put here for the defense of the gospel. What then? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed, and in that I rejoice.
- Do the people you work with, play with, go to school with, and live with know that you are a Christian?
- What kind of picture are they getting of God from your life and your words?
- Are you standing up and speaking up?
- What's getting in the way of your standing up and speaking up?
Thanks to Shaena for laying down the challenge!

Homosexuality – What the Bible Says, Part 2
Pastor Charlie
April 2, 2006
Some Key Principles:
1. Innate and Choice
2. Orientation and Practice
James 1:14-15
We all have an orientation to sin.
Orientation is not sin.
We all try to hide our sin.
Because we are all oriented to sin, we should be gracious to others.
3. Acceptance and Rejection
Romans 5:8
John 8:3-11
Key Biblical Texts:
Genesis 1:26-28; 2:18, 21-24
Humanity was created male and female
Genesis 19:1-29
The inhabitants of the condemned cities of Sodom and Gomorrah practiced homosexuality (in vv4-7 the practice is understood as wicked).
This was ONE sin in Sodom and Gomorrah.
Homosexuality is understood as wicked.
Leviticus 18:22; 20:13
Homosexual practice is detestable—it makes God sick.
Romans 1:24-32
1 Corinthians 6:9-11
Leviticus 4:13, 14
