1 Corinthians 6
18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.
19 WHAT? KNOW YE NOT THAT YOUR BODY IS THE TEMPLE OF THE HOLY GHOST WHICH IS IN YOU, WHICH YE HAVE OF GOD, AND YE ARE NOT YOUR OWN?
20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.
Fleshly desires are the greatest entrapment of this generation! So obvious is the fact that ‘something’ has been LET LOOSE to influence the mind (creativity) of man to accept this as the norm.
What! With all the advertisements that abound all around; TV, radio, Billboards, handbills, magazines, half naked/ naked showbiz stars (sex sells they say!),’designer wears’ are not put out anymore with sensual innuendos but out rightly oozing LUST of off the wearer!
Right across the globe people are clad in various stages of indecency emulating the ‘stars’, following the fashion trend of the day or simply being free and creative as they display ‘vital’ body parts at random.
The children are oh, so at RISK!
God knows the danger of this entrapment THAT IS WHY THERE ARE SEVERAL Bible verses from the Old Testament through the new to guide us so as not to be lost on life’s paths of confusion on the issue.
Jude 1:7 - Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.
Lust is manifested in various ways but the end point is sexual immorality
Bestiality as a LIFESTYLE(?)
Leviticus 18:23 - Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it [is] confusion.
Galatians 5:19-21
The Bible is clear about laying with ANIMALS, which is STYLISHLY being imposed upon our psyche as other sexuals sins have been in this generation.
News about people(?) getting married to animals and claiming their HUMAN(?)rights to do so is nothing new in some parts of the world, this is explained away by the 'smart' ones in intellectual oratory and pyschological jargon as being okay
Laying with SAME SEX:
"Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that is detestable" (Leviticus 18:22) and "If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They must be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads" (Leviticus 20:13, 18:22). God’s view on this issue is very clear, He regards homosexuality as "detestable" , the King James version of the Bible says, "an abomination" such that the Mosaic law required that people who committed homosexual acts were to be put to death!
Of course, we are not advocating violence and murder (our God can defend Himself and His laws) But we must pursue and make clear our belief in His word, Christ came to set the captives free from bondage under the law.
There are many out there who try to justify their BELIEF, TOLERANCE and ACCEPTANCE of those who perform these acts and even preach out of ‘God’s word’; God’s LOVE OF EVERY CREATED BEING and that He is not opposed to the CHOICE OF A LIFESTLE(freewill of man) which is rooted in HOW THEY’VE been Born, to try to prove their erroneous point.
Romans 1, clearly declares that homosexuality is detestable to God: "Because of this, God gave them over to SHAMEFUL LUSTS.
Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion" (Romans 1:26-27).
The chapter equates homosexuality with "shameful lusts", "unnatural [relations]", "indecent acts", and "perversion".
This seems logical to believe, that as a result of adamant persistence at iniquity, adoration of the creation above the creator, THE CREATOR let them do as they WILL(HE does not force anyone to worship HIM) which will eventually lead them to eternal damnation EXCEPT they make a detour (He is loving enough to take back a LOST sheep ANYTIME!).
Obviously homosexuality is unnatural and it is clear that the disposition is ALL ABOUT FLESHLY LUST.
I once heard a well respected man-of God say, “MEN AND WOMEN OF DESTINY DO NOT GIVE THEIR BODIES ANYHOW, ESPECIALLY ON A PLATTER!”
Men and women were created, quite obviously, to connect with one another in a particular way, and not with others of the same sex.
One major reason is for procreation as stated in the book of Genesis.
Men obviously, cannot procreate with other men, nor can women procreate with other women.
If every person on earth today were homosexual in the absence of modern medical technology, humanity would have become extinct long ago
About Eunuchs and those who ‘preserve’ themselves for God …satan’s people KNOW the value of ABSTINENCE so it is a practice in the occult/ cults in order to soar to great heights and level in supremacy and spiritual authority- no sex!
And am not referring to being forced to abstain … In response to Pedophilia and the ‘holy’ priesthood -1 Corinthians 7:7-9 , God wants us to willingly offer sacrifices to Him which on the long run,benefits.us! 1 Corinthians 6:9 - 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, 1Corinthians5:9-13
2 Corinthians 7:8-10
