What? Am I in the right place? Are you sure you’re not referring to the George Michael song? During a private conversation between Moses and God, Exodus 31:18, this concept was first introduced to the Israelites.
To prevent the excuse, “well, no one ever told me,” the Lord lays out His position about sex in plain view for all to see, Leviticus 18. The first sex education message may be graphic in nature, yet God’s boundaries are clearly defined. Every possible scenario, no matter have perverted, establishes a line in the sand to discourage unlawful sexual acts. If Adam couldn’t keep the only law in the garden, Genesis 2:17, what’s going to keep mankind from pushing the sexual envelope.
To combat this temptation, God introduces the acts of the sinful nature in Galatians 5:19-21. It’s not a coincidence that sex is linked to the first and last desire. Sexual immorality is like an open door that many walk through, attracted by temporary pleasures and illicit scenery. When lust becomes full blown, individuals are persuaded to partake in orgies, losing control of their sexuality.
According to the apostle Paul, the church in Corinth struggled to control their bodies. Subsequently, 1 Corinthians 6:12-20 is written to help those who have strayed off course. Beyond these addictive habits, soul ties merge you with a sexual partner. These bonds often confuse souls, destroying relationships and preventing true intimacy from forming. In view of this, God wants your sex so that your temple, physical body, will be offered as a living sacrifice, Romans 12:1-2. Please share your feelings, opinions and thoughts on this controversial topic.
