Evils Of Mardi Gras

Summary

The sermon explores the biblical account of Balaam and Balak from Numbers 22-25, emphasizing Balaam's role in leading Israel into sin through compromise and immorality, resulting in God's judgment. It highlights the dangers of sexual immorality and idolatry, drawing parallels to New Testament warnings about false teachings and the importance of living by grace, not works. The message also addresses Christian liberty, urging believers to avoid causing others to stumble and to abstain from practices that offend conscience. Finally, it connects these themes to the church in Pergamos in Revelation 2, warning against the doctrine of Balaam as a form of compromise within the church.
