Empowered Living Volume 3: Sexual Purity

Back to the Bible Canada with Dr. John Neufeld

Sexual purity is a topic often misunderstood, yet it’s central to God’s design for us. Dr. John Neufeld delves into Ephesians 5:1-7, where Paul calls Christians to live in purity, reflecting God’s holiness. Drawing a comparison between sex and fire, Dr. Neufeld emphasizes how God's gift of sex, when misused, can lead to destruction. He explores the importance of guarding our hearts and speech, and how Christians are called to imitate God, not the culture. As Paul warns, a life of purity is crucial for living as God’s people.

Empowered Living Volume 3: Ephesians 5 begins with a word that invites us to look back. It is the word, “Therefore”. It means, “on the basis of what has just been said and taught, this is what you are to do.” “Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children” (Ephesians 5:1). What can it mean to imitate God? In this series, we examine what it means to be imitators of God. How does being an imitator impact our living, our walking, our loving, our serving? All this discovered in a Christian lifestyle the world has never heard of before.
