We took two weeks to work through chapter 6 of When Sinners Say I Do with the "6:12@6" men. I'll try to summarize the content of the chapter, along with some of my own thoughts, in the following three posts. If you want a brief introduction to the content of the chapter, Dave Harvey provides it in this video.

When Sinners Say I Do – Chapter 3 – “The Fog of War and the Law of Sin”

Key Ideas:

This chapter is about better understanding the nature of sin and learning how to respond to it.

The nature of sin is war. Sin creates war—war with God, war with others, and war within yourself. (46)

War with God (Rom. 8:7; James 4:4; Rom. 5:10)

War within yourself (Gal. 5:17; Rom. 7:23)

War with others – like, say, your spouse (James 4:1-2)

The cause of our marriage battles, friends, is neither our marriage nor our spouse. It’s the sin in our hearts—entirely, totally, exclusively, without exception. (51)

Our real opponent is not on the opposite side of the bed, but within our hearts. (58)

(Reminder: Dave Harvey did a number of short videos summarizing the contents of the chapters. This video covers chapters 2-4.)

When Sinners Say I Do - Video Summaries

I just discovered yesterday the YouTube page that Sovereign Grace Ministries put together a couple years ago for the When Sinners Say I Do book. On the page, you'll find a series of videos in which Dave Harvey summarizes the contents of the book. I'll try to remember to link to the corresponding video in weeks to come, but if you'd like to get caught up, here are the videos for the Preface, Chapter 1, and Chapters 2-4.
