Heartfelt Obedience | Pt 6 | Matthew 5:29 | Pastor Nathan Pittman

Jul 6, 2025    Pastor Nathan

In this powerful message, we're challenged to confront sin head-on with a radical approach. Drawing from Matthew 5:29-30, we're reminded that Jesus calls us to 'cut off' whatever causes us to sin. This isn't about physical mutilation, but rather a mindset of complete separation from sin. We're encouraged to develop a healthy fear of God - not terror, but reverence and honor. Just as Joseph fled from Potiphar's wife, refusing to sin against God, we too must cultivate this reverence in our hearts. The message emphasizes that sin's ultimate goal is to destroy us, and by cutting it off, we gain a clearer vision of God and a more fulfilling life. This teaching invites us to examine our lives, identify areas where we may be 'stuck' in sin, and take bold steps to eliminate these stumbling blocks, trusting in God's grace and power to transform us.
