The quality of our lives is determined by the quality of our choices. And that's what makes decision making the pressing present priority that it is. Do you want to live your life like Jesus lived His? How many times do the gospel writers and the commentators in Jesus' life say this? That He did that according to the Scriptures. That whatever He did was done in fulfillment of the scriptures. Jesus' life was choreographed by God's word. The Bible is there to take the guesswork out of life. God's will in many ways is an open secret. Conduct is determined by the truth of God's Word. And so He wants to walk in God's ways. He wants to travel the path of obedience. Where the word of God is not definite or where the word of God is dealing with a matter of choice or freedom, we need to deploy and employ sound judgment.

Covetousness is a gateway sin. It leads you to other sins in its fulfillment. At its base, covetousness is the longing for something that is not rightfully yours. We are encouraged to pursue contentment, which is the opposite of coveting. In this sermon we will see: the character of envy, the consequences of envy, and the cure for envy. Envy is inordinate, idolatrous and insidious. It dishonors God and depreciates life. When we covet, we fail to love God. The cure for the pleasure of sin is not prohibition, but a greater pleasure in Christ.

Life is not a choice for any one of us, but once we are alive, life is full of choices. Our journey through life will invariably bring us to certain crossroads where we need to decide this way or that way, this thing or that thing. And the other thing to remember in that, is by the way, if you don't make a decision about that thing, you've made a decision about that thing. You can't run from decisions. No decision is a decision. And the other thing to remember, is that God's not going to just hold us accountable for the things we did, but for the things we didn't do, there's the sin of commission and there's the sin of omission. What's the sin of commission? That's doing what we're forbidden. What's the sin of omission? Not doing what we're http://commanded.there's just no skipping decisions and choices. So all of that said, it's a secret thing to be able to make a choice. It's a scary thing to have to make a choice, but it's all solvable. It's a solvable thing, because God has sent down in His word, patterns and principles by which you and I can govern our choices.
