Millions of young people today are seeking to achieve the most pleasurable experience of their lives, thru having sexual relations with that special someone of the opposite sex, or perhaps, of the same sex. And after achieving that few minutes of pleasure, there is sadness, lonliness, disappointment, even fear,- and all those unanswered questions.
Was I any good at sex? Am I pregnant, or is my sex partner pregnant? Am I going to come down with AIDS? Am I going to come down with some other sexually transmitted disease? Am I now going to face a paternity
suit? The haunting questions go on and on.You see, the world around you is full of lies. Sex is not just a fun sport, or a game. It is much more than a good meal or a good movie. After the sexual encounter is over, there is a price to be paid. Sometimes the price is that unexplainable emptiness and longing for the partner after he or she has gone their way. Sometimes the price is higher,- an uncomfortable physical condition, or an untimely death. And, sometimes there is that fearful knowledge that you have done something which may affect your eternal destiny.
Sex wasn't invented by human beings, and didn't evolve, from nothing, over millions of years. Sexual desire was created within us by our Creator. Sexual desire was created in us by our loving God, so that we would produce offspring who would honor Him. To cause us to produce offspring, God made the sex act one of the most satisfying and pleasurable experiences which people can enjoy. The sex act is truly a gift from God. The misuse of sexuality is an invitation to a life of misery.
The best sex, which you'll ever have, is that which you share with the one to whom you have made a lifetime committment. Over the months and years, you find there are particular aspects of the sex act that you and your spouse find enjoyable, your own special act. Because you and your spouse are faithful to each other, there is no worry about diseases, or one of the parties going their own way. No, it doesn't always happen that way, but that's the way God intended it.
The message from the media, the government, the psycho-babblers, and the educational establishment is, " Go out and do it. " " If it feels good, do
it! " This is just more of their big lies. They don't tell you of the heartaches and the diseases, that obeying their advice will cause. And they don't tell you that sexual sin may send a person to hell for all eternity.As in all aspects of our living, God's way is the best way. God's way leads to happiness. In the long run, man's way leads to dispair.
If you are in the midst of a sexual relationship outside of marriage, whether it be casual, a same sex relationship, or a so-called " common law
marriage ", wake up and smell the coffee. There is heart-ache around the corner. If your partner isn't willing to make a marriage committment, give him/her the boot. In the long run, you'll be much happier for it. You may think you have years to think about the decision, but your next day may be your last. Don't be deceived. Same sex sexual relationships are as wrong as they are unnatural. They are not an alternate lifestyle. God's word says they are wrong,- and they are wrong.There is forgiveness and happiness waiting for those who will honor God's commands with regard to sexuality. The next move is yours. It's up to you.
" Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? DO NOT BE DECEIVED! Neither fornicators, nor idolators, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God."
" And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God."
( I Corinthians 6:9-11 )
Have a blessed day. May God bless you, and your family!
