Sermon Notes
Date: 07/05/2026
Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor
Series: Matthew
Key Text: Matthew 5:27-32
Description:
The greatest threat
to your marriage
and your soul
is not the enemy
outside the door —
it’s the one inside.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast,
Pastor Monty Simao continues our study
in the Gospel of Matthew —
as Jesus exposes where adultery truly begins:
not with the body, but in the heart.
The King presses the seventh commandment
beyond outward restraint
and into the hidden life
of desire —
confronting lust
as adultery of the heart
to be put to death,
and bringing the careless breaking
of the marriage covenant
under the holy authority
of the One who made it.
Because in Christ’s kingdom,
purity is not a mask we wear.
It is a grace we need —
given by the faithful Husband
who forgives,
cleanses,
and restores.
