The final week of the Divine Design series focuses on sexual temptation. With the key idea being that “sex is different”. Followers of Jesus should approach sexual temptation by grounding their identity in Christ as children of God. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 6 and Matthew 5, we see that while culture may say “I have the right to do anything,” not everything is beneficial, and sexual sin uniquely affects a person’s own body. Because sex unites two people into “one flesh,” believers are called to treat their bodies as belonging to the Lord and empowered by His resurrection life. Scripture commands Christians to flee sexual immorality, take temptation seriously, and remove anything that leads them into sin, as Jesus’ strong language about cutting off what causes stumbling illustrates. Overall, sex is spiritually significant, sexual sin is uniquely damaging, and God calls His people to resist temptation through decisive action and a clear understanding of who we are in Christ.
