This sermon is titled good news about gluttony. It's part of the series, the seven deadly sins, and the focus of this sermon is not just to tell you that gluttony is bad and that you should avoid it.

Ephesians 2:1-10

Ephesians 1:11-23

The purpose of anything that is created depends upon the purpose of the creator.   That applies to us as well.  Unless we know the purpose of God in creating us, and the plan of God for transforming us, we will never understand our true purpose in life.

Main idea: without a PURPOSE and a PLAN for our time we will waste our lives.
