Talking Points: Thinking Rightly about and Responding Rightly to Sinful Desire

Talking Points is back and this week Agnes, Josh, and Willie are here to discuss the issue of sinful desire on the back of Willie's sermon on James 1:12-21 from last Sunday.

James 1:15 says that, 'desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin' which might lead us to think that the desire itself is not actually sinful. However, sin is bitter from root to fruit and our desires can be sinful as well as the 'actual sin' which. Understanding this helps us to see our sin problem more clearly which in turn helps us to respond rightly in repentance and lament of our sinfulness but also in rejoicing at the greatness of the salvation which is ours in Christ.
