  2. A TALE OF TWO POLITICIANS

  3. The Ten Commandments ARE NOT About What God wants FROM US, But What He Wants FOR US.

  4. Remember that THE TEN COMMANDMENTS are SOMEONE we meet before they are something we obey.

  5. The context of the Ten Commandments is to be understood as a Covenant commitment ceremony.

  6. LOVE FOR God IS SINGULAR • Love for God is SPIRITUAL • Love for God must be Sincere • Love for God must be Safe Guarded • Honor Your Father and Mother • Do not murder

  7. Exodus 20:14 • Do Not Commit Adultery

  8. You have heard that it was said, 'Youshall not commit adultery'; 28but I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.  Matt 5:27-28

  9. Few people plan on committing adultery; • And few people actively seek to SAFEGUARD their marriages from adultery.

  10. SWINGING DOORS  • When the Bible says “You shall not commit adultery”, it is also saying that you shall also have a great relationship of emotional, relational, financial, and physical intimacy in the context of marriage.

  11. HOW TO SAFEGUARD YOUR MARRIAGE • Understand Where Adultery Begins: • The unguarded heart – the prior sin is a failure to be satisfied with all that God is for us.

  12. Guard Your HEART • Immaturity and Conflicts • Marriage as Covenant Commitment- • Marriage discloses the purposes of the heart.

  13. Expectations • The #1 cause of conflict is unmet expectations, which are usually unstated and often unreal. • Unless you tell your spouse the observable changes you’re asking him or her to make, your partner can not meet your expectation.

  14. When you get into an argument it is often helpful to take time to identify and evaluate your expectations. • Our emotional reactions can be used as alarms signaling the presence of an unmet expectation.

  15. Communicating unmet expectations can help you and your spouse grow in your relationship. • It is best to carefully examine your spouse’s expectations before choosing not to meet them.

  16. Lack of Nurture • If you fail to provide the support, comfort, love and affection – both emotional and physical- you promised when you stood before the altar, then you open the door to problems. A marriage is like a garden – it needs to be cultivated and nurtured.

  17. I’m Gonna Miss Her –♫ • Vs • The Good Stuff ♫

  18. Jesus is the one person who never committed adultery – spiritually or sexually – yet He became sin, even adultery, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.

  19. FIRST COMMANDMENT AND ROOTS, BRANCHES, FRUIT

  20. The ABC’s of coming to faith – • A - Admit that you’re weak and need grace and strength – That means there is GOOD NEWS FOR YOU   • B- Believe that Jesus is the only savior who can heal your heart. • C- confess to God that you want to trust Jesus as your savior and Lord.
