About This Message
Using Deborah's call to Barak in Judges 4, Pastor Addison asks why believers keep losing to besetting sins despite clear instructions and the power God has already supplied. He identifies Barak's conditional response, "if you go with me," as a picture of Christians who make obedience contingent on feelings or other people, and urges unconditional obedience instead.
Key Takeaways
- God's instructions against sin are clear, not vague or hidden.
- The power to overcome sin has already been given, as it was to Barak.
- Conditional "if" obedience, not a lack of power, keeps people enslaved to sin.
