2 Corinthians 7:1-5

• Forgiving others means you are going to have to suffer.
• If, as a Christian, you do not repent of known sin, you will: a) be annoying to those around you; b) get in the way of your rewards; c) potentially lead yourself to be an apostasy.
• Don’t point fingers. True repentance means taking the blame for what you have done.
• God has every right to expect faithfulness from his people, like in a marriage.
• Perhaps there are failures in Christianity. That doesn’t mean Christianity is a failure.
• God is the God of the living.
• Be careful with what you have. Don’t waste what God has given you (monetarily or otherwise) on the flesh.
• Christ needs to be real to you. Because the devil is real and he’s not letting up.
• God will not violate your free will.
• “If you marry a child of the devil, you will have Satan as your father-in-law.”
• We don’t have to have an appointment to go to God – we can go right to Him, anytime.
• Faithlessness produces nothing good.
• The healthiest Christians are those who serve with Christians.
• Do not let the world write your spiritual dictionary.
• We aren’t trying to convert. We are trying to save. And we can’t do that without Christ.
