This sermon represents Week 14 of a series Darrell taught on the Sermon on the Mount in 1995 at Glendale Presbyterian Church in California. In this message, Darrell Johnson explores Jesus’ words in Matthew 5:27–30, where the gospel’s power to create a new kind of humanity confronts the deeper roots of adultery and lust. Darrell shows that Jesus is not aiming to condemn, but to heal—protecting marriages, honouring the dignity of others, and safeguarding our own souls. Darrell calls for a radical, grace-filled response that addresses temptation at the level of the heart, supported by community and sustained by the Spirit.
