Passage: 1 John 1:7b*
The blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us
from all sin.
Questions
1. What is the starting point for real
purity?
2. How can someone remain pure?
Practical help
No one except Jesus has lived a truly
pure life. Our lives have been stained and contaminated by the sins we
have committed, including our use of Web porn. By placing our trust in
Him, through His shed blood, He purifies us from all sin — past
and future. That’s great news for those of us who struggle against the
pull of smut.
So what does that mean for us in practical terms?
It means that we don’t have to be held captive by past sins. It means
that we have the opportunity to experience a new and fresh start right
now with Jesus. The future is bright! “If we confess our sins, he is
faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all
unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9).
By His mercy He has purified us from all past and
future sins. By His grace He helps us to abide in His purity right
now. Go ahead and take action right now by doing three
things:
1. Rejoice in your purity!
2. Turn your attention upon Jesus and thank
Him.
3. Resist the pull of porn by standing strong in
Christ.
He is what you need most of
all.
