How can Christians escape the corruption in the world?

The sermon asserts that through faith in Christ, believers have escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust (2 Peter 1:4). This verse highlights the transformative nature of salvation, where Christ reigns in the heart of the believer, displacing the rule of sin and lust. This does not imply that Christians will be free from sin in their experiences but indicates that sin no longer has dominion over them. The presence of Christ brings empowerment to resist temptation and live in obedience to God's will, reflecting the believer's new identity in Christ. Hence, escaping corruption is an ongoing experience of living under Christ's lordship.
