The truth can be dealt with,
a lie cannot!

What is your status NOW! Unmarried and living with him or her?

1st Corinthians 7:1-2, “Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman. Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.”

There's a very interesting passage of Scripture in the Old Testament which shows a commonality between nudity, sexual sins, idolatry, and rock-n-roll music. While Moses was standing upon Mount Sinai, receiving the Ten Commandments from God, God informed Moses of something tragic ... "And the LORD said unto Moses, Go, get thee down; for thy people, which thou broughtest out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves: They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them: they have made them a molten calf, and have worshipped it, and have sacrificed thereunto, and said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which have brought thee up out of the land of Egypt. And the LORD said unto Moses, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people" (Exodus 32:7-9. This is so appropriately descriptive of America and Europe today.

We are a stiffnecked people!!! Carefully notice in Exodus 32:17 that Joshua tells Moses, "There is a noise of war in the camp." Moses listens and responds in Verse 18 saying, "It is not the voice of them that shout for mastery, neither is it the voice of them that cry for being overcome: but the noise of them that sing do I hear." It was rock-n-roll music... LOUD NOISE! Notice in Exodus 32:19,25... "And it came to pass, as soon as he came nigh unto the camp, that he saw the calf, and the dancing: and Moses' anger waxed hot... Moses saw that the people were naked."

Psalms 119:9, “Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word.”

The world is hypocritical. A whoremonger like KISS rock band's lead singer, Gene Simmons, can brag on national TV about having had sex with 4,600 women (whores), and society still respects him. Now he's even being featured in his own TV show. But just let one Christian get caught in adultery and society roasts him over the flames of hypocrisy. No wonder God said in Psalm 37:12, "The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth."

"War" is a powerful word, because lust is a powerful desire. God calls the struggle with sexual sins a "war." The old sin-nature is unchangeable. When a man becomes a born-again Christian, Jesus Christ comes in to live within his soul, in the form of the Holy Spirit. The key to the Christian life is to YIELD to the Spirit of God continually, "This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would" (Galatians 5:16,17).

Psalm 119:11 states, "Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee." David memorized passages of Scripture to help him live for the Lord. We should do the same! I memorized Hebrews 4:15,16 many years ago which comforts my heart often ..."For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need." What a wonderful Savior!

Jesus told His disciples in Luke 22:46, "pray, lest ye enter into temptation." No wonder 1st Thessalonians 5:17 states, "Pray without ceasing." A war is composed of individual battles. We cannot win the war all at once. We have no choice but to deal with each battle, one at a time, as temptations attack us.
