You must not commit immorality
(fornication or adultery)
Fornication is a sexual
relationship between an unmarried person and either a married or unmarried
personal
Adultery is a sexual relation
between a married person and either a married or unmarried person.
When the Bible says ‘You must not
commit immorality’
Some are fast to say, what of
forgiveness; why give a law when Grace still flows at Calvary?
Some assert, all acts of immorality
after conversion is covered by the past forgiveness received at Salvation. Well, if the doctrine of ‘once saved being
forever saved’ is true then I can also add; a student should never be failed in
any exam once the person has passed a former exam. It will be right to conclude
also that a food poison drank today should have no effect due to good
nourishment consumed yesterday.
In all we must understand that the
times of ignorance is winked at by Jesus, who surely forgives all offenders
because a broken reed he will not break and a flax he before becoming born again, such a one is
easily forgiven. We need to acknowledge that though a person is forgiven by God
such a one must be aware that the law of sowing and reaping will always abide.
A glossary look at the account of
lives wasted on the field of battle between Christian and Islamic group all
over the word shows that the affair of Adultery between Abraham and Hagar has
never been worth.
The death sentenced on a whole race
due to the affair between Reuben and his Father’s concubine shows that
immorality is not worth.
The shameful capture of Samson the warrior
on the laps of Delilah shows that adultery is never worth.
Immorality has an eternal
consequence. It shames the soul, breeds avoidable jealousy and rivalry.
My dear friend please shun
immorality in all its forms.
From the thoughts of your heart, to
the things you watch, please avoid immorality.
Immorality will take you farther than you want
to go
Immorality will keep you longer
than you want to stay
Immorality kills, Immorality
weakens and Immorality destroys.
Immorality forbidden.
