“Run away from sexual sin! Any other sin which a person might do, is outside his body but if a person commits sexual sin, he is sinning against his own body.” I Cor 6:18 (Simple English Bible
It seems that the headlines these days are highlighting all kinds of sexual sins. Of course, Hollywood and its ilk love to flaunt different lifestyles and garner attention from their “sophisticated” philosophies on sex, marriage and relationships. What is worse is that there doesn’t seem to be any more boundaries any longer. People do what they want to do, when they want to do it and with whom they want to do it. And if anyone criticizes, complains or speaks out against it, they are the Mother Grundies and narrow-minded sections of society.
Personally, I don’t believe in “sexual addiction”. It is an excuse for people who will not exercise self-discipline and respect for others. They want sex and they find it where it pleases them. There is little commitment to morality and God’s instructions for the human race.
Commitment is the key. A commitment is making the same decision repeatedly. Every day, I must commitment myself to my Lord. Every day, I must commit myself to my wife. Every day, I must commit myself to taking every opportunity to serve Jesus wherever I am.
Without commitment and respect, we’re just like the world!
