SEX & PURITY
CULTURE’S LIE: “Sex is just a physical action.”
“But at the beginning of creation God ‘made them male and female.’ 7‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, 8and the two will become one flesh.’ So they are no longer two, but one flesh. 9Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”
– Mark 10:6-9
“Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body.”
– 1 Corinthians 6:18
PURITY
“If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”
– 1 John 1:9
Just because you may have messed up in this area already, doesn’t mean you can’t have a good marriage or you’re destined to have bad relationships.
It is our job as followers of God, to not act on attractions in a way that is sinful.
Flee Temptation.
“Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body.”
– 1 Corinthians 6:18
Focus on God.
“Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think on these things.”
– Philippians 4:8
CULTURE’S VIEW OF SEX
If you want to have the best relationship possible, do it the way God created it to be.
