Passage: Romans 5:10*

For if, when we were God's enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life!

Questions

1. How does God view our failings?

 

2. In what way should we see ourselves when we check out a porn site?

 

Practical help

Believers resemble sprung criminals; we're all off the hook on a technicality. Not that the freedom cost nothing — Jesus gave his life to set us loose — but the Judge of the universe withheld judgment on our behalf. We deserve death, hell and then some, yet God gave us everlasting and eternal life instead.

If we were to remember this truth, we would bring a more godly perspective to our struggles with Web porn. Sure, we stumble at times. But God loved us even before we knew him. "How much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through [Jesus'] life!" So the next time you check out a porn site, praise God for his eternal mercy. Maybe praise is the best antidote to pornography.
