SEX

Hello Friends,

Sex used to be something that a man and a woman would share when they became wed to one another. Although it is pleasurable, it’s not what they were together for. In the modern world, however, many people will not get married, and instead they will live a life of sin through fornication. This is not in God’s best, and He warns against committing these types of sins in His word.

1 Corinthians 7:2 says – “Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.” It is good for a man and a woman to be close physically, but it is of greater importance that a couple grows together in Christ. After all, that’s the reason we are on this planet. When we marry someone, it gives us the opportunity to grow with that person and to become all that we can be for Christ, together.

Modern music and television promote premarital sex; and they neglect to warn of the consequences of these actions. God warns of this all throughout the Bible; and He doesn’t do it to be harsh, He does it to prevent you from having to experience emotional pain. According to thedatereport.com over 85 percent of relationships result in breakups. So tell me, would you want to fornicate with someone only to break things off a little while later? When we do this, emotional pain becomes inevitable. 1 Corinthians 6:18 says – “Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.”

The Bible clearly states that people who are caught up in a sin will not enter the gates of Heaven. If two people are having premarital sex, they are clearly caught up in this sin; and therefore, they will not be saved.

I am going to keep myself pure, and I would challenge you to do the same. Sex between a married couple is condoned by God, but fornication is not. If we abstain from fornication, it will be much more pleasurable when we become intimate with our spouse, and it will be in God’s will.

In Christ,
