  3. Galatians 5:13, 16 ESV 13 For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh . . . 16 But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.

  4. Galatians 5:17 ESV 17 For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh, for these are opposed to each other, to keep you from doing the things you want to do.

  5. 1 Corinthians 6:12 ESV “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.

  6. 1 Corinthians 10:23-24 ESV 23“All things are lawful,” but not all things are helpful. “All things are lawful,” but not all things build up.24 Let no one seek his own good, but the good of his neighbor.

  7. 1 Corinthians 10:31 ESV So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

  8. Romans 8:5 ESV 5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit.

  9. Romans 8:6-7 ESV 6 For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace. 7 For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God,

  10. Romans 8:7-8 ESV for it does not submit to God's law; indeed, it cannot. 8 Those who are in the flesh cannot please God.

  11. Romans 8:29 ESV For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.

  12. MORAL MARGIN = the space between the center of God’s will & sin’s slippery slope.

  13. God’s will is for us to get as close to Christ as possible, so we’ll become like Him.

  14. Danger is moving away from Christ & toward sin.

  15. Danger isn’t at the bottom of the slippery slope; it is the slippery slope!

  16. Do the wise thing:

  17. Do the wise thing: -Move toward Jesus

  18. Do the wise thing: -Move toward Jesus -Step back from sin
