In this week’s message, Pastor Sonny challenges modern perceptions of freedom, arguing that true freedom isn’t the absence of restrictions but aligning with God’s design for humanity. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 6:12-20, he explains that humans are inherently worshippers, and real freedom comes from worshipping God, our true owner, who bought us at a high price. This sermon explores how our bodies and choices should reflect this liberating truth, rather than leading to destruction.
1 Corinthians 6:12–20
12 “All things are lawful for me,” but not all things are helpful. “All things are lawful for me,” but I will not be dominated by anything. 13 “Food is meant for the stomach and the stomach for food”—and God will destroy both one and the other. The body is not meant for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body. 14 And God raised the Lord and will also raise us up by his power. 15 Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? Never! 16 Or do you not know that he who is joined to a prostitute becomes one body with her? For, as it is written, “The two will become one flesh.” 17 But he who is joined to the Lord becomes one spirit with him. 18 Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body. 19 Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, 20 for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.
