Purity (Part 2)
Toward a Radically Christian CountercultureSteve Gregg
In "Purity (Part 2)," Steve Gregg discusses how the dominant culture of Western civilization is focused on sensuality, but purity is necessary for true pleasure and fellowship with God. He emphasizes that God is not against all pleasure, but indulging in pleasure that is wrong can lead to the forfeiture of the ultimate pleasure of having a clear conscience and ready access to God. Gregg also highlights the importance of purity in sexual relationships and warns against sexual promiscuity, which can have devastating consequences like abortion.
