b'It\\u2019s just not adultery \\u2013 it is lust in the heart and mind. Talk about hitting the target sin of our society and the one which pierces our hearts. Our Lord is preaching to people 2000 years ago, and it\\u2019s as if he is talking directly to southern Californian MEN and WOMEN. \\n\\tThe battle for holiness, the struggle of sanctification, and the desire to live for the glory of God explodes into possibility when we begin to live by TRUTH not emotions, and when we begin to follow God\\u2019s Word over our strong desires. \\n\\tTo please our creator, to live the way he designed, it is not merely avoiding adultery but it is also NOT to live by LUST, strong desires, strong emotions.'
