Sexual Purity

 

Don't believe Satan's lies about sex.  I Corinthians 10:8 23,000 died in oneday due to this sin. This is not something to play around with...Those who believe Satan’s lies about sex end up in bondage. But those who believe Christ’s truth about sex end up free.

 

 

 

Jesus said of Satan, “When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies” (John 8:44). Satan is a liar, but Jesus is the truth and the truth-teller (John 14:6). He said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth and the truth will set you free” (John 8:32).  

 

The boundaries of sex are the boundaries of marriage.

 

Sexual union is intended as an expression of a lifelong commitment, a symbol of the spiritual union that exists only within the unconditional commitment of marriage. Apart from marriage, the lasting commitment is absent and the sex act becomes a false expression, a lie. Sex does not become permissible through subjective feelings, but through the objective lifelong commitment of marriage.

Even if you are no longer a virgin you can repent of your sins and commit yourself to secondary virginity... "As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us” (Psalm 103:12). "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9).

 

Remain sexually pure from this day forward, preserving yourself only for your marriage partner, should God choose to give you one. You need more than good intentions to maintain your purity... You need a plan. If you are committed to a relationship with a growing Christian discuss it honestly and formulate a plan to prevent falling back into premarital intimacy...

Think long term, not short term.

 

Good or bad, you will always reap what you sow—you will always harvest the consequences of your choices. “Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows” (Galatians 6:7). The lifelong consequences of sexual impurity are worse than we can imagine. The lifelong rewards of sexual purity are greater than we can imagine.

 

In the tabernacles, there was a Holy Place (Exodus 40:26) and a Most Holy Place (Hebrews 9:3-4) was the MOST SACRED... It was a place no ordinary person could enter.  It was God’s special dwelling place in the midst of His people. Now, I want you to sit down and think about the fact that the Bible says that the Holy Spirit lives in our bodies and that he esteems it as TEMPLE worthy to live in... isn't that humbling? That alone should cause you to wonder why you would allow an “ordinary person” into a space that is considered very sacred. Do you see it? Do you get it? It's time to start treating ourselves Pure. We should not be ashamed to set up our own “veils” preventing “just anyone” from coming into our most holy spaces...

 

Let me tell you something about the temple... If that is where the Holy Spirit dwells,  it is the most divine space the place that is most vulnerable. When people walk into a church/synagogues/mosque, there is a certain level of reverence... Do you agree with me?  You can't just do or saying anything up in there... you can't bring your canned beers, smoke or cuss in there... Never! It's revered as Holy, hallowed and blessed and that's what the Bible tells us that WE ARE TEMPLES therefore we shouldn't settle for anything less than treating our bodies with respect.  Our bodies should have that DIVINE presence as well... treat your body as  something “anointed”, “beautiful”, “magnificent”, and “wonderful”. It's the place of a highly-valued function, where the holy spirit lives.

 

As of today...

 

1) Begin to acknowledge yourself as a holy place... the place where the Holy Spirit lives.

2) Treat yourself daily as someone who is “dedicated” and “devoted” to honoring God and herself. 

3) Get clear on how close people should get to that sacred space.
