  6. you’ve got a problem

  7. Jeremiah 3:20 “Surely, as a treacherous wife leaves her husband, so have you been treacherous to me, O house of Israel, declares the Lord.” idolatry = adultery “adulteresses”

  8. Exodus 20:3–5 “You shall have no other gods before me. You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God...” idolatry = adultery “adulteresses”

  9. idolatry = adultery friendship with the world = idolatry “double-souled” (4:8) – love God AND the world Matthew 6:24 “No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money.” “adulteresses”

  10. James 4:5 (NASB) Or do you think that the Scripture speaks to no purpose: “He jealously desires the Spirit which He has made to dwell in us”? James 4:5 (NET) ...“The spirit that God caused to live within us has an envious yearning”? “adulteresses”

  11. Galatians 5:17 For the flesh sets its desire against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are in opposition to one another.... “adulteresses”

  12. 2 Timothy 4:10 ...for Demas, having loved this present world, has deserted me and gone to Thessalonica.... “adulteresses”

  13. God has a bigger solution

  14. grace = undeserved favor grace = power to change 2 Corinthians 12:9 And He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.” God’s part: immeasurable grace

  15. humility = “low-lying” Isaiah 66:1–2 Thus says the Lord, “Heaven is My throne and the earth is My footstool. Where then is a house you could build for Me? And where is a place that I may rest? For My hand made all these things, thus all these things came into being,” declares the Lord. “But to this one I will look, to him who is humble and contrite of spirit, and who trembles at My word.” Our part: go low, stay low

  16. Submit Resist Draw near Cleanse and purify Repent: be miserable, mourn, weep Ezekiel 14:6 Therefore say to the house of Israel, “Thus says the Lord God, ‘Repentand turn away from your idols and turn your faces away from all your abominations.’” Our part: go low, stay low
