I was reading this message board earlier today and someone mentioned how a lot of woman are infatuated with this celebrity (whose website it was) and laden with lust. That sentence reminded me of a conversation I had yesterday.
I was chatting with an online acquaintance and she was sharing her concerns of satisfying her mate sexually when they got married. I think it had to do with the fact that her ex-husband cheated on her. But part of me knew she was boasting about snagging her man! But it’s all good. It didn’t bother me.
But then she said something that shocked me. She indicated that she would not have any problems with testing the waters before marriage. When I asked her if she believed fornication was a sin, she said she did BUT! And this is a Christian woman! But I think it has more to do with her infatuation with this man she is involved with and being laden with lust! Some women are willing to do anything, even compromise the Bible to get and keep a man. That is dangerous because it means that man means more to her than God.
But really that is the attitude in the church today. I recently heard a story of a young female minister who was caught in her parents bed having sex and who routinely performs oral sex on men. Yet she is preaching the gospel.
When God says something is wrong He means what he says. Forming sexual soul-ties before you marry someone is dangerous. Even if you are engaged it’s wrong. Suppose you end up not getting married?
I shouldn’t be shocked though. Often people have a form of godliness, but they are really not living anything behind the words. A lot of Christians do not believe in or practice celibacy. It’s a sad commentary on so-called Christians and the Body of Christ.
2 Timothy 3:1-6
GOD’S WORD Translation (GW)
Watch Out for Sinful People
3 You must understand this: In the last days there will be violent periods of time. 2 People will be selfish and love money. They will brag, be arrogant, and use abusive language. They will curse their parents, show no gratitude, have no respect for what is holy, 3 and lack normal affection for their families. They will refuse to make peace with anyone. They will be slanderous, lack self-control, be brutal, and have no love for what is good. 4 They will be traitors. They will be reckless and conceited. They will love pleasure rather than God.5 They will appear to have a godly life, but they will not let its power change them. Stay away from such people.
6 Some of these men go into homes and mislead weak-minded women who are burdened with sins and led by all kinds of desires.
1 Corinthians 6:18
King James Version (KJV)
18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.
1 Corinthians 6:9-11
King James Version (KJV)
9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
