The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
In this talk, Steve Gregg tackles the controversial topics of murder and adultery, arguing that both should be avoided even in their subtle forms. He argues that although the Sanhedrin and Roman laws may not put someone to death for simply being angry, there are still consequences for negative attitudes and hurtful words. Gregg also emphasizes the importance of exclusive sexual access within a marriage, commenting that lustful thoughts and actions are a breach of the sanctity of marriage. In this way, Gregg shows how God is concerned with justice in all aspects of human behavior.
