I. Relative Truth versus Absolute Truth
1. Relative truth – What’s true for you isn’t true for me.
2. Truth is God’s – 1) God defines truth 2) The truth God’s truth 3) This truth will set you free.
| Are you living for the reason you were made?
II.
God’s Design: Gender Identity/Sexuality
1. God made them male & female.
|
2. God made them in His own image.
|
3. God created & designed us to bear His image; to be image-bearers.
4. Out of God’s glory He created each human being.
Our ultimate satisfaction is found in Him.
5. Our sexuality we were created with, by God, is meant (and was meant) for one man and one woman in the context of marriage.
III.
God’s Design: Marriage

|

It has been since the beginning |
3. Sex was designed by God intentionally and specially for one man and one woman.
4. Sex was designed by God intentionally to function in the context of marriage, which is held in honor to God by one man and by one woman
; ;
5. Lust and porn is included.

Saving yourself, including your eyes, for your spouse is God’s design and will for you.
Train yourself to save yourself.
IV.
Homosexuality
Is a violation of God’s design for the men and women He created in His image.
Any violation of God is sin.
Therefore, that sin is offensive to God.
1.
What is sin?
Sin is disobeying God. ; ,
2. Homosexuality is sin, just like idolatry, lying, coveting, gossip, adultery, stealing, dishonoring your parents, being a Christian and not going to church, etc.
, .
3. Homosexuality is exchanging God’s truth & design for us for a desire (lifestyle) that is 100% contrary to that truth & design (“I want to be my god, rather than live in accordance to God).
– “Exchanging the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things (1:22-23).”
“Exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever!
Amen (1:25).”
Homosexuality isn’t a “bigger sin” than other sins.
All sin is offensive to God.
1. It’s not okay to not be gay, but rob a bank, lie to someone, cheat on a test, commit adultery, look at porn, look at a person with lust, have sex before marriage, murder, etc.
