The Word of GOD—the Bible—is not a “you’re okay; I’m okay” type of book. In contrast, it is a “You’re NOT okay; here is how to be saved spiritually through JESUS the CHRIST and only then are you okay” type of book.
The world has been sold a lie by the Satanic concept of consenting adults being allowed to do as they wish. I know of no place in the Word of GOD where immoral sexual behavior has a dividing line between adults and children. Of course, sexual behavior between an adult and a child is immoral. However, contrary to the lies spewed forth by Satan and the world, the only Biblically acceptable sexual intercourse is between a man and a woman who are married to each other.
As a rule, the world is not going to speak out against its own immorality. Rather, those of the world attempt to justify such behavior even to the extent of trying to justify and legalize the MURDER of their own unborn children.
If Christians do not boldly speak out about immoral behavior, who will? This nation has a former President who has had a long history of being accused of sexual immorality and who had an admitted immoral relationship while President. Yet, he receives millions of dollars to speak to groups and is idolized by many. Further, his wife is now seeking the Presidency herself. Where is our moral outrage? Is being silent the same as condoning the immoral behavior?
If Christians do not boldly speak out about immoral behavior, who will? This nation has an actress who is living with and has a child by an actor although not married to each other. They are “partners” in today’s vernacular. She is honored, praised, and admired throughout the world by many worldly people. She was even praised for declaring that she would not have intercourse with said actor until he was officially divorced from his previous wife although they were “involved” with each other. Where is our moral outrage? Is being silent the same as condoning the immoral behavior?
If Christians do not boldly speak out about immoral behavior, who will? “Each of the children, who range in age from 2 to 16, has the same mother but a different father. The alleged abuser was the only father present Wednesday. The others have not responded to notices about the proceedings, Bauer said.” (Peoria Journal Star, May 24, 2007, page B2.) Where is our moral outrage? Is being silent the same as condoning the immoral behavior?
Many of the MURDERS of UNBORN BABIES today are the result of sexual immorality outside of marriage. Sexual immorality and the MURDER of UNBORN BABIES have a positive correlation. Decrease sexual immorality and the MURDER of UNBORN BABIES will also decrease. Increase sexual immorality and the MURDER of UNBORN BABIES will increase.
“Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.
But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God’s holy people. Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving. For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure or greedy person—such a man is an idolater—has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things God’s wrath comes on those who are disobedient. Therefore do not be partners with them.
For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light (for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth) and find out what pleases the Lord. Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them.” Ephesians 5: 1-11 (NIV)
We can either live a life for self or live a life for GOD. We can not do both! Sexual immorality is sexual immorality regardless of the age of the participants.
