Jesus’ statements in John 15 about “abiding” are a common source of comfort for Christians today. But that wasn't their only intended purpose when Jesus spoke them to His disciples. In context, they also represent a call to action for all true believers; a call to be kept from our destructive natures by yielding ourselves to the true spiritual life that is in Jesus.

Whenever Jesus used the phrase, “I am,” He was purposely identifying Himself with God. And when He said that He was “the way,” He was giving us one way of understanding the power and manner of His work for mankind. And in this sermon, Pure Life Residential Program Director, Luke Imperato, connects these great statements about Jesus to the great need of the man or woman struggling with pornography addiction and other forms of sexual sin.
