Faithful in Heart & Body

Pastor Andrew preaches from Exodus 20:14, “You shall not commit adultery,” explaining that the command protects God’s good gift of marriage. Marriage is presented as a covenantal, one-flesh union created by God, where sexual intimacy belongs within faithful commitment between husband and wife. Pastor Andrew shows that adultery is not only a physical betrayal but also a heart issue, as Jesus teaches in Matthew 5 that lustful intent violates the spirit of the command. He warns against sexual sin in its many forms, including pornography, cohabitation, emotional unfaithfulness, and any desire that rejects God’s authority. Pastor Andrew also emphasizes the positive call to pursue purity, strengthen marriages, cultivate intimacy, and reflect the covenant faithfulness of Christ. Hope is offered through the gospel, because Jesus forgives, cleanses, restores, and remains the perfectly faithful Bridegroom for sinful and wounded people.
