  • Tim Keller sermons via Gospel in Life: Christianity presents a revolutionary view of sex, singleness, and marriage that rejects both traditional and modern conceptions of the purpose of sex. Ultimately, our hope in our future family, future journey and certainty of our true love, Jesus Christ, shapes our attitudes towards sex, singleness, and marriage.

    The amount of time, energy, knowledge, wisdom, sacrifice and God given talents it must take to deliver a sermon like this is baffling to me. To be able to interpret and share the story of the gospel in this way could only be done by a person who has lived a lifetime filled with the cycle of sin, repentance and grace. I’m so grateful for his ministry.

    La Gracia de Dios en el celibato se recibe cuando levantamos nuestras manos para pedir que los vientos de su espíritu controlen nuestro fuego interior, sin apagarlo y sin desbordarlo.

    Celibacy for some time is not the absence of sexual life, but quite the opposite is asking God to completely satisfy our soul if we do not burn ourselves inside.

    As humans, we are sexual creatures, for this is how we interact intimately. As fallen humans, we are in brokenness, so our sexuality is distorted. If you struggle with any sexual sin, yet manage to uphold all other commandments, then it's worth nothing. If you don't struggle with this sin, yet break any other command, then it's also all worthless. What is of the greatest worth in human history is that Jesus was raised from the dead. If that is not true, then everything else is not as worthless as our faith. If it is true - then everything else is absolutely worthless. Jesus is risen, so we are most wealthy and free. Go to HIM.

    La intimidad sexual en cierta medida nos muestran la naturaleza del amor. Que es un acto por medio del cual nos vaciamos a nosotros mismos para darnos a otro. Gran placer encuentran aquellos que aman y también que hacen el amor.

    La Gracia de Dios en el celibato se recibe cuando nuestro deseo se lo dejamos en la mano de Dios y no en la nuestra.

    Celibacy for some time is not the absence of sexual desire, but quite the opposite is to go after the search for a more intense pleasure.

  • @andresguzman3075
    @andresguzman3075 Před 3 lety

    La intimidad sexual en cierta medida revela la naturaleza de que el gozo máximo va acompañado con dolor, a través de gemidos placenteros que son como las voces que anuncian el momento cúspide, y este se logra cuando nos entregamos todo lo que somos al otro. (es solo un pensamiento que comparto, puede que esté equivocado en la interpretación que le doy).

    La intimidad sexual en cierta medida nos revela la unión de la cuerpo con el espíritu, las aguas de sus ríos desembocan en las aguas de su mar. Las aguas de arriba con las aguas de abajo se juntan y se hacen una.

    El celibato es como el lamento de los ojos de nuestra alma que se ven constantemente atraídas a buscar placer fuera de El.

  • @andresguzman3075
    @andresguzman3075 Před 3 lety

    El placer sexual nos revela en cierta medida la naturaleza paciente y auto negación del amor. En donde el gozo de ambos requiere que el se resista, espere un poco, un poco más y otro poco más para darle primero el placer a ella y al ver su rostro en deleites luego así uno es libre para recibir el suyo.

    El acto sexual y el deseo que nos quema por dentro en cierta medida nos muestra en términos físicos lo que también anhela nuestra alma: que solo entregándonos nosotros mismos a otro es donde nos liberamos, y en vez de agotarnos recibimos energía renovadora.

    El celibato por algún tiempo no es la ausencia de deseo sexual, sino todo lo contrario es ir tras la búsqueda de un placer más intenso.

      Where in the bible does it say women shouldn't read the bible?

    • @darcandelaria
      @darcandelaria Před 4 lety +4

      What's wrong with a woman reading the bible? She's being a humble servant and helper. Notice after she doesn't continue? I'm a woman and I don't believe it's biblical for woman to teach men, men are the spiritual leaders. Only in a womans group it's fine for women to teach women but not women to preach and teach to men, I'm not comfortable with that because God made men to be the leaders not women. There's nothing wrong with that because men and women are both equal to God and we aren't lesser we have our place too, as women. It's truely beautiful when you understand your roles.

      @Kevin paymar abusive relationship? If you only knew! I've been married 16 years and my husband is still learning to be the leader of the home he's very loving but passive and gentle hearted I'm always praying for him to take authority as the spiritual leader. He loves the Lord with all his heart but It's part of the curse women want to control 😂 I'm guilty of that and that's not good. I'm also learning to submit and I say that in the most loving way out of reverence for the Lord and submission to the Lord, it's biblical. It's not easy but my husband is far from abusive he's a big ol teddy bear! I'm the bossy one 😂 I try not to be!

      @@darcandelaria It sounds like God has guided you to this for your marriage and it is a beautiful thing that you have listened to him and encouraged your husband. But in marriage both should submit to each other. And in the church no one is above anyone else - we are all redeemed sinners, Jew and Gentile, slave and free. I believe God gives spiritual gifts regardless of sex, race, or anything else, and leadership and teaching are included in these gifts. As long as the gospel is not compromised, there are no rules in Christianity, it is a relationship. Maybe one church might have an issue with men or women being too dominant and God's Spirit might decree for them that there needs to be a change. But we need to listen to God's Spirit, both individually and as churches to see where our weaknesses are and take steps to correct them. And of course sometimes even if something is not an issue for us (eg alcohol) if we are somewhere where it is a problem (when I was in India it is) then we need to abstain anyway, to look after our brothers and sisters. As Paul said (regarding eating food left for idols) , "Be careful, however, that the exercise of your rights does not become a stumbling block to the weak. For if someone with a weak conscience sees you, with all your knowledge, eating in an idol’s temple, won’t that person be emboldened to eat what is sacrificed to idols?". God bless :)
