WHAT THE PROBLEM IS
WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS
WHY WE CAN’T DO IT
What problem is the text addressing? How does contemporary culture understand and react to this topic?
In every text of the Scripture there are imperatives, moral norms for how we should live. That norm may be seen in what we learn about the
character of God or Christ, or in the good or bad example of characters in the text, or in explicit commands, warnings, and summonses.
This moral imperative always presents a crisis, for when properly understood, the practical and moral obligations of the Scripture is impossible
for human beings to meet.

HOW JESUS DID IT
HOW THROUGH FAITH IN JESUS YOU SHOULD LIVE NOW
Christ is the ultimate embodiment of the moral norm and the only way to become people who can begin to follow it.
Spell out practical ways that faith in Christ should shape our lives in this area.
