“That part of us that thinks it is harmless to flirt with lust or gossip or greed or selfish ambition or anger as long as we don’t get into bed with it—we are fooling ourselves! It’s because of that that Paul says in 1 Corinthians 10, ‘Let the one who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall.’” – Scott Sauls
Text: 2 Samuel 11:1–5, 14–17; 12:1–7
