Intemperate Life

Isaiah 5:8-30

Material Gain
• Gain at any cost
• The Love of the World
• There profit will be to nothing
Man’s Pleasures
• Sinful pleasure of the world
• Human pleasure in moderation
Mocking of the Word
• Refuse to take His Word by faith
• Skeptical and critical
• Challenge God, “Did God Say…”
Morally Deranged
• Corruptness of our day
• Our attitude toward sin
• Maintaining love for the sinner
Manifest Pride
• Pride in one’s opinion
• See it my way, or no way
• I can do it without God or anyone else’s help
Mingling of Strong Drink
• Strength of a man to resist
• Impairing of judgment
Moved to Indignation
• Refusal to live as God’s commands
• The judgment of God released
Mighty Filling of the Holy Spirit
• Be not drunk with wine, but be filled
• Let the Holy Spirit be your controller
