Discussion Questions

1. Paul emphasizes living consistently to please God rather than random acts of obedience. What areas of your life tend toward inconsistency, and what practical steps can you take to develop more consistent obedience?

2. Paul addresses sexual immorality in a culture where it was widely accepted and even incorporated into religious practice. How do you discern between cultural acceptance and biblical truth when the two conflict in your own context?

3. Bro. Neil noted that Christians and non-Christians are virtually indistinguishable in moral behavior according to surveys. What does this reveal about the church's witness, and how can believers demonstrate authentic transformation?

4. Paul writes that sexual sin is unique because it sins against one's own body, which is the temple of the Holy Spirit. How does viewing your body as God's temple change your perspective on physical choices and self-care?

5. God's will for believers is sanctification, which should guide daily decisions more than major life choices. How might focusing on daily holiness clarify the bigger decisions you face?

6. Paul includes himself when discussing the struggle against impurity, showing no double standard. How does knowing that spiritual leaders face the same struggles affect your view of accountability and community in the church?
