“Online betting, only fans, video gaming, never ending dopamine inducing scrolling apps – some of the most corrosive, addicting, soul-killing creations ever invented and we give them to people in a way to fit in their pockets.”

Why Should We Care about this Rot?

1. THERE IS CONSTANT CONVICTION Psalm 32:3-4

"You will never go any further in your walk with God than your last unrepented sin.”

2. THERE IS AN EMOTIONAL CONFRONTATION

When sin is not dealt with swiftly and privately, there is almost always a confrontation.

Kinds of Confrontation • Public Humiliation • Private Rebuke • Piercing Judgment of God

3. THERE IS A BROKEN CONFESSION

• Not sorry he was caught, sorry for sin

• Part of repentance is confessing accurately

4. THERE CAN BE A GLORIOUS CLEANSING

Psalm 51:7-12

5. THERE ARE ALWAYS HEARTBREAKING CONSEQUENCES
