The Campers just attended a session with Mr. Brazier on living a pure life in an unpure world. Mr. Brazier brought out some really great points about who we are living for, the real meaning of love, and the purity with which we should treat those of the opposite gender.
Some "Nuggets:"
- Christ needs to be three things to you daily: your satisfaction, sufficiency, and security.
- You should want to live a pure life for Christ's sake.
- God gives His commands for your sake ... not to restrict you- but to set you free.
- Love is Self-Denial.
- This kind of love can only be done if Christ is your satisfaction. This type of love will set you free.
- Just because you know it, you have to now live it.
- Take responsibility for your life today.
- Three relational snares to avoid: 1) :Playing the field, 2) Obsession, 3) having a fantasy world.
Beauty:
"It is a beautiful thing when you see a young man love God and live for Him alone.
It is a beautiful thing when you see a young woman who is not being taken in by young men who are "playing her" or giving her attention."
"How beautiful to see young men and women standing for the glory of God."
Mr. Brazier addressed the question: "How do we live a pure life in an unpure world?" His conclusion? Simply this; "you must be satisfied in Jesus Christ alone."
