“Keep yourselves from idols." The warning isn't given to them because it wasn't a real danger or because there was an off chance someone might fall into idolatry. It was given because this is our root problem on any given day. It is what we, especially as followers of Jesus, must fight against.” FaithSinIdolsIdolatrySanctification Book:Note to Self: The Discipline of Preaching to Yourself Source: Note to Self: The Discipline of Preaching to Yourself
“You live recklessly when you do not take God's law seriously or respond to the gospel properly. Reckless living can look like laziness and apathy. When you simply aren't motivated and tell yourself that God has forgiven you in Jesus, so you're not going to fight temptation and sin - that is reckless living, and it's far more dangerous than you realize.” LifeFaithDisciplineApathyRecklessSanctification Book:Note to Self: The Discipline of Preaching to Yourself Source: Note to Self: The Discipline of Preaching to Yourself
