Love vs Lust

2 Sam.13

Curse brings lust. Blessing brings love

Sin brought curse not hell. Curse brought hell'

Cain, Ham were cursed...Isaac...Ishmael...10 Laws...

Sin brings curse. Curse brings more sin

Curse does not die. JESUS WAS CURSED

Lust is feeling. Lust is curse. REPENT & REBUKE (Jesus faced lust in wilderness)

ILLUSTRATION: Edwards vs Dukes

Fight CURSE. Purpose BLESSING!

Lust looks like love; alcohol looks like water from distance as well

Lust makes you sick. Love serves

SICK + SERVANT = SHOULD NOT DATE

You need someone to make you happy, that's not love, it SICKNESS!

Servanthood is love practice!

LOVE WILL NOT SATISFY LUST

Run From SICK PATIENTS…Tamar will not SATISFY YOU

Lust intensifies with love. Love satisfies with love

Marriage Can't CURE YOU!

Marriage works best when, both are patients and GOD is doctor

Don't see marriage as a DOCTOR. Tamar is not your DOCTOR

Relationships with reveal holes, relationship will make you while

Romantic relationships magnify, only God satisfies

Guys love to be doctors, feeds their ego! & self esteem

LUST LOOKS ATTRACTIVE TO THOSE LACKING AFFECTION & AFFIRMATION

Where there is LUST (rebellion), there is no LOVE 1 John 2:15

God created a HOLE that only He can fill...

Parental love is appetizer for love of God…God will not give something that will replace HIM!

ILLUSTRATION: Bucket, Spoon (small, big), Hose

We expect too little out of God, too much out of parents

ILLUSTRATION: Knife, lust is wolf killed by his own blood

Lust feeds of bad friends, and bad relationship with parents

Be more honest with your parents then with your friends

Parents truly love you. They will find out!
