Marriage
"We also wish warmly to affirm those sisters and brothers, already in membership with orthodox churches, who - while experiencing same-sex desires and feelings - nevertheless battle with the rest of us, in repentance and faith, for a lifestyle that affirms marriage [between a man and woman] and celibacy as the two given norms for sexual expression. There is room for every kind of background and past sinful experience among members of Christ's flock as we learn the way of repentance and renewed lives, for "such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God" (1 Corinthians 6:11). This is true inclusivity."

Synopsis
"God gives believers spiritual gifts for serving others in the church and the world. However our own spiritual gifts today aren't always easy to identify. What gifts are there? How should they be used? Which gifts apply to the apostolic era? Which apply to us? Even among serious, searching believers, these are still divisive questions. Can light be shed on these issues? Poythress turns to the authority of Scripture and allows it to speak for itself."
