We continued the running COT theme from Axe. 

The MEASURE OF A MAN (20 attributes of a godly man) - GENE GETZ

Paul’s Maturity Profile Two paragraphs in Paul’s letters to Timothy and Titus give us this powerful profile for testing maturity levels in Christ, both personally and in others (see 1 Tim. 3:1–7; Titus 1:5–10). 

Today we touched upon the attribute of-
The husband of 1 wife (morally pure)
- The phrase "husband of 1 wife" literally translates to " a one-woman man."
- There is more to it, though. It's about being faithful in heart, mind, and body, whether married or single.
Key concepts-
1. Not about Marital History Alone
-It's not a legalistic ban on divorced men, widowers, or unmarried men.
-The focus is on current moral character and purity, not past mistakes or status.

2. Faithfulness Over Time-
- A godly man must be loyal and trustworthy, especially in his closest relationships.
-Purity is not just about avoiding adultery- it's about being emotionally, mentally and spiritually devoted to one woman (if married) and to Christ (if single)

3. Purity in Thought and Action-
-Avoiding lust, pornography, flirtation, and any form of unfaithfulness.
- Moral integrity must extend to private life, not just public appearance.

Challenges in Today's Culture-
- There is an overwhelming temptation in modern media and technology
- Getz encourages accountability, guardrails, and daily surrender to Christ.

Final Takeaway-
A godly man is one who practices consistent moral purity, marked by faithfulness, integrity, and self-control in both his public relationships and private life.

SYITG!

Be a light in the areas where you live, work, and play!
