Check out www.powerlinesunday.blogspot.com. Listen this Sunday night at 9:30p.m. to hear a session on Pornography/Sexual Sins. If you miss it, you can always listen to the mp3 file later. I'll post a link to it so you can check it out or you can visit the above website and the info should all be there.

Recently I have discovered that the issue of pornography is very prevalent today in the Holiness movement. We can attempt to sweet it under the rug and ignore it, but that won't make it go away. Our culture is full of it - internet, books, cds, movies, billboards, catalogs, cellphones, Walmart, neighbors. You cannot avoid it being put in front of you. What do we do about it? How do we address it?

The power of these sexual sins is its ability to stay a secret. As long as it goes undercover it maintains its stranglehold on its victims. Confession/exoposure of this issue must take place in order for freedom to follow. Ephesians 5:11 commands us to "reprove" or "expose" the evil works of darkness. Accountability, radical amputation of the offending member (the computer, TV, internet, cellphone, source of pornographic input whatever it may be), feasting and drinking exclusively on God and His Word, and many other principles must be maintained in order for one to find lasting freedom.

Call in to Powerline this Sunday night at 9:30 p.m. to hear the discussion. The number is 218-895-0167 and the code is POWER# (76937#). If you are unable to attend the session live, you can find it in the archives on mp3 and listen anytime.
