Godly Alternatives - Sexual Immorality
(God is not an option, He gives the options and man chooses.)
Thou shall not commit adultery - God
Thou shall not look on a lady to lust after her - Jesus Christ
Hanhan, this guy and bible. Isn't there anything else to talk about. My friend, there is nothing else to talk about because everything else outside the Bible is falsehood and deception, taking the heart and the mind away from the truth.
The bible is the only real and truthful book in the world. It talks about GOD, People, their walk and relationship with God, good and evil, morality, SIN, the devil, origin and beginning of all things and to sum it up JESUS CHRIST - the unconditional, loving offer of God to mankind to bring an absolute end to our misery and mystery - SIN
The Bible is a book so real to the point that the authors in their complete sincerity did not try to hide their hideous crimes or sins from the public. They wrote down a complete account of their lives - good and bad; also, they did not hide the truth that it is only God who can forgive their sins and iniquities. These men recognized the fact that SIN is man's greatest problem and that JESUS CHRIST is the only solution to this menace.
What is sexual immorality? How can we define this topic in this age? This is an age that has lost a complete sense of decency and morality. All around us, people, things, TVs, Internet, movies talk about sex. How good and how pleasurable it is. But they never talk about its moral boundaries and the only circle where it is justified and acceptable by God. The modern world thinks it does not need God. Even if you do not think so, you act so. They want to define good and evil by themselves and live without any Godly standard. They believe sex is for pleasure and do not care how they get it, so far they get what they want and are satisfied. But what does God say? God said I, even I created all things and created it for my glory. The Lord God created sex and He gave certain rules and conditions that must be fulfilled before sex can be consumed. I do not deny that sex is pleasurable. Yes, it is. It is because it is a gift of God. Everything God created is good - good for man because it was created for man out of God's love. God wants us to have pleasure - all kinds of pleasure, not sexual pleasure alone. There are other pleasures, even greater than sex. The pleasure of sex does not last, it is temporal.
Psalm 16:11
Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fullness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
The greater pleasures are spiritual pleasures. The kind of pleasure that can only be experienced by those who have been converted by the spirit of God into eternal life. The pleasure of worshiping God is the greatest. The pleasure of obeying God is great, greater than sex. The pleasure of being in God's presence is great, greater than sex. God is full of pleasures and more of these pleasures can be explored in limitless bounds when we get to heaven. But because God loves us and He does not want us to live miserable life's in the flesh, because man is flesh, He has given us fleshly, physical pleasures. There is the pleasure of eating, there is the pleasure of accomplishment - of reaching a goal, there is the pleasure of success, there is the pleasure of friendship etc. Yet, all these pleasures have their limits and boundaries. They all have their sorrows too. For example, the pleasure of eating can only be derived when there is an hunger. Eating without hunger or too much eating is trouble.
The same thing applies to sex. Sex is good, only if it's moral laws and boundaries are observed. Involving in sex outside of God's laws and commandments leads to a burning hell.
Now, what are the boundaries? Sex is for marriage. The only set of guys who are qualified by God to have sex is the married ones, not singles. Those are one of the pleasures of marriage. Engaging in sex, of whatever form, size or shape is forbidden by God - be it physical or fictional, pornography or mental stimulation, masturbation or oral sex, safe sex or sad sex, cunnilingus or fellatio, anyone, anyhow is all evil and it is SIN unto God and man.
Jesus said, even the thought of having sex with a lady that is passing by without touching her brings you to judgement and damnation.
But when we look around us today, what do we see? We see young boys and girls, even children in primary schools already flooded with the image and idea of sex. Everybody thinks about it, everybody acts it, everybody engages in it through several mediums. Some don't have real sex because they are aware of the dangers that lies ahead but they can engage in robbing, touching or even oral sex. They call it safe sex. All that do such are an abomination to God and they are only like sticks, fit for fire, the fire of a burning hell. Even the imaginations and thoughts about sex are all evil to God, what more about those that indulge in it without being married? Sexual desires are normal - the feeling of wanting to have sex. It is a natural instinct for the grown up man or lady but when you go a step further, just a step and you begin to engage in sexual fantasies, imaginative sexual adventures and overtures, watching pornography etc, then there is trouble because you have defiled your body, which belongs to God.
What is the way out of this Malady?
The only way out is repentance. Repentance from your sins and turning to the Lord Jesus Christ. I quite understand this is a major challenge to all youths and young people today. I am a victim too but I decided to change things and live for the glory of God and not to please my body or the devil. You can decide to do this too, TODAY
Then delight in God. True delight in God keeps a young man or lady from sin, sexual sins. The world is telling a different story because they all belong to the devil. The world is evil and it must practice evil, sexual immorality included. They will give you several alternatives to the main thing just because the devil is after your life, wanting to destroy it. The message they preach is have sex, you can do it safely but God says wait, delight in me your creator and I will give you all, the good desires of your heart - a virtuous wife or husband included.
Thanks for stopping by, I love you with all my heart. And the truth is: GOD LOVES YOU!
