A Deeper Understanding of the 7th Commandment

In this weekend’s edition of Words of Grace, Pastor Ben Winslett continues our study through the Sermon on the Mount with a message titled “A Deeper Understanding of the 7th Commandment.” While many view the commandment against adultery in strictly physical terms, Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 5 reveals a far more convicting and heart-searching standard — one that exposes each of us as guilty and in need of grace.

In a culture confused about sexual ethics, this message boldly addresses what the Bible defines as sexual immorality, clearing away both modern confusion and pharisaical misapplications. From lustful thoughts to marital unfaithfulness, from the misuse of church discipline to the hope of redemption, Pastor Winslett offers biblical clarity, practical truth, and a strong reminder: our only hope of righteousness is through Jesus Christ.

Those who Hunger and Thirst for Righteousness

In this episode of Words of Grace, Ben Winslett explores Matthew 5:6, in which Jesus said “Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.” This longing for righteousness is a sign of spiritual life, showing that a person has been born again. Just as physical hunger indicates life, spiritual hunger reveals the presence of the new nature given by God. And, this craving is ONLY satisfied through the gospel, prayer, and worship.
