Sermons About Accountability
Jesus Christ & The Word, Pt. 4 (Matthew 5:19)
One of the chief marks of our fallenness is our rebellion to authority. Men want to be free, autonomous, our own person, follow own agenda, pursue own goals. The idol of American culture is individuality. Fallen man kicks at authority, because *Authority assumes *Accountability. Generally people are fine talking about God in generic terms, but when the issue of His absolute authority comes up - things change. Jesus, in 5:17-20, in absolutely unequivocal terms is establishing the absolute authority of the Word of God and His own Person. In verses 17-18, we have seen that Jesus establishes the authority of the Word in three ways: (1) Stands in judgment of false religion (2) It is fulfilled in the Messiah (3) It is permanent Now, 19-20, Jesus will establish the authority of the Word by declaring our accountability to it: (1) Accountable to its prescriptions (2) Accountable to its Righteousness.

Glory in the Fellowship Part 7
The church is supposed to supply both the opportunity to learn and grow in faith and accountability for my life and actions. When discipline is not a part of the local church, the door is open to false teaching, division among the church family, sin that brings judgment, a continuation of sin in a home that destroys the testimony of God to the children, the church being weak instead of powerful, and a loss of God's glory before the world.

The Shepherd & Sheeps Accountability (Hebrews 13:17)
God's mandate of responsibility and accountability to shepherd His people involves a principle that bears on and has implications for every relationship in life. The under-shepherd and the sheep of God's church should equally and deeply consider their roles and leader and lead, all of which come under the Headship of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Death by Degree
The gift of sexuality is one of the most powerful forces in our lives for both pleasure and pain. Like fire, sexuality, in its proper place, is both powerful and beneficial. But out of control, it can also become a destructive force. Satan is able to use sexual sin in a devastating "one-two" punch in our lives. First, we are tempted to move away from God's ideal, into sin. After we sin, Satan then turns the mirror on us to condemn and ridicule us. As your pastor, my hope and prayer for you is that you would step into the fullness of sexual healing and fulfillment. That your desire to walk with Jesus Christ, and to be used by Him, would not be compromised because of hidden sin in your life.
