SEXUAL SINS: SINNING AGINST YOUR OWN BODY (AIDS IS A SODOMY SIN PROBLEM)

Sexual sins are the darkest sins in the human family. Sexual sins are against your own body and will literally destroy your mental, physical, and emotional health. Sexual sins will make a wreck out of your life. Every sexual sin is a work of evil spirits and cannot be taken into your life except in fellowship with devils. Sexual sins in the Bible are always judged with the strongest of judgments. Not one person guilty of sexual sins will enter the kingdom of God unless they repent and are cleansed by the Blood of Jesus. For an individual to claim the Blood or to testify that they are Christians or believers while they are living in sexual sins is an abomination before God.

“Strong language,” you say and you are right. Our Creator and God has always reserved very clear and strong language to deal with sins of immorality. For a man to invade the body of a woman who is not his wife is a violation of every law of decency. For a man to even look on another woman with evil in his heart is to violate that lady and to undress her in the dark recesses of his mind. Jesus said that it is fornication to even look on a woman to lust after her. Why did He say that? Because, you violate that person to whom you are not husband or wife when you look upon them and desire to undress them in your mind. “But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.” (Matthew 5:28) This truth applies equally to men and women.

Apostle Paul by the Holy Ghost said that fornication (sex between any two persons who are not rightfully married to each other) is a sin against the individual’s own body. “Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.” (I Corinthians 6:18)

Sin is a hateful thing. This generation has played with the idea of sin until it means very little to them. Most people now believe that it is okay to sin a little and they get angry when anything different is suggested. Listen carefully, “God still hates sin with a holy hatred.” Regardless of the new standard, “No sin will enter Heaven or the presence of our God.” If or when you sin against your body, deep inner things occur that will destroy your total person. It begins immediately, the moment you violate your body, and intensifies every time you commit another sex sin.

It only takes a few acts of fornication to reduce you to an empty shell of a person, going deeper and deeper into a pit of mire. Listen to the Word of God, “Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.” (Galatians 6:7-8)

Corruption Of Your Body Starts Immediately

Have you ever realized that God our Creator invested Himself, specifically, in the design of our bodies? (Fearfully and Wonderfully Made, page 11.) We are made in the image of God. He breathed His spirit of life into our marvelously made physical person. We are a mystery that the greatest doctor cannot fathom. Every design of our being is beyond description of the greatest mind of this educated generation. We are made in His likeness and after His design and for His glory. To unite this body with evil spirits and commit a sexual sin is to start an immediate process of corruption. No wonder Paul the Apostle said, “Flee fornication.”

“Flee fornication” is a strong, incredibly strong, warning that suggests the seriousness of this sin. It is not just a sin to reject or to avoid, but one of which we must flee from. The apostle knew it was more than a sin but it was also a trap from which few souls can escape. Job gave one of the most powerful descriptions of a man that gives himself to fornication/adultery. Here are the words spoken by the Holy Ghost to Job, “The eye also of the adulterer waiteth for the twilight, saying, No eye shall see me: and disguiseth his face. In the dark they dig through houses, which they had marked for themselves in the daytime: they know not the light. For the morning is to them even as the shadow of death: if one know them, they are in the terrors of the shadow of death.” (Job 24:15-17)

Solomon described equally the women who follow this lifestyle. “For a whore is a deep ditch; and a strange woman is a narrow pit.” (Proverbs 23:27) “To keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman.” (Proverbs 6:24)

The Holy Ghost said something overwhelming through Solomon’s pen. It sounds almost hopeless for a fornicating man to ever escape the pit of a harlot’s house. “For her house inclineth unto death, and her paths unto the dead. None that go unto her return again, neither take they hold of the paths of life.” (Proverbs 2:18)

The words used in these passages are just plain scary. Look carefully at them so that each of us might flee this pit of death.
· They are in the terror of the shadow of death.
· Her house inclineth unto death.
· Neither take they hold of the paths of life.
· But, her end is bitter as wormwood.
· By means of a whorish woman a man is brought to a piece of bread.
· The mouth of a strange woman is a deep pit.
· For a whore is a deep ditch.

What warnings God gives to the wise man and woman! “Flee fornication” with all of your soul. Teach your families that fornication and adultery is a deep ditch, a pathway into death and a dark mire that few can escape.

Your Body Comes Apart In Sexual Sins

Your body was created by the infinite hands of the Creator God. He formed it in a mysterious likeness to Himself and breathed His own life into that body. This created masterpiece was so created to live forever and to enjoy the same purity that God the Creator enjoys. But, sin entered by the disobedience of Adam and Eve and death began its horrendous destruction. Bypassing all that occurred in the garden, let’s deal with what is happening to this body, spirit, and soul masterpiece with the sins of sex.

One of the mysteries of our bodies is the male and female design. God made man and woman to be joined together and prescribed that union to be pure and set apart from all other human beings. God’s order set each man and each woman to be a partner with one other man or woman of the opposite gender. Anything else but this standard He proclaimed to be contrary and forbidden. For men and women to lay with others in intimacy wreaks havoc because it violates the inward stability and creativity of our very soul.

Something happens in fornication that the Bible describes in no other sin. Apostle Paul addressed it in writing to the Corinthians. Here are his words, “What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.” (1Corinthians 6:16) Then, notice the next verse where he likened this false and dark union to the same level on the evil side as our holy union to the Lord on the spiritual side. “But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.” (1Corinthians 6:17) An act of fornication actually makes you a soul mate of the fornicator and to the demon of the sin of fornication.

No wonder that a person who becomes involved in sexual sins is bound by cords of darkness and deception almost impossible to break. It is a sin that unites the fornicator to demons and fallen spirits that then becomes their master. The fornicators do what those masters say. They fill the heart with lust and godless passions that control and fill them with an endless and unsatisfying list of emotions. It is a downward spiral that has no bottom, but hell itself.

No wonder that men and women who become fornicators in the sins of heterosexual acts soon degenerate to the sins of lesbianism and homosexuality. The spirits of sexual sins have one ultimate goal and that goal is to submerge their victims in an endless list of vile blasphemies to God the Creator. Sexual sins cannot be separated from the demons that direct and promote these acts.

A Corrupted Body

It is sad to look at what happens to the physical body of a fornicator. Every sex sin they commit is actually driving nails in their own coffin. Because they do not die the next day most people tend to ignore the slow death of sexual sins. The emotions of a fornicator always become frayed and sharp. Some people can hide their emotions better than others, but the power of sin is still at work. Slowly, this person will become defensive, possibly angry, and certainly critical of anyone that dares to question his/her sinful life. Many fornicators actually develop such emotional problems as to be either slightly or grossly insane and lose all sense of self-discipline. Responsibility for family or loved ones is eventually forsaken. Mothers or fathers will actually forsake their own children and the mental well-being of these children to be joined to this new mate as two possessed people joined to one another.

The body will slowly begin to react to this corruption in the soul and spirit. Resistance against infection is clearly tied to our emotional well-being. With frayed and troubled emotions, the physical person will begin to deteriorate. The body always follows the well-being or the sick condition of our inner person. You cannot be well of body if you are not well of soul and spirit. “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” (III John 1:2)

Before we go deep into the physical body, diseases, and sickness, let’s deal with the spirit of man. The spirit is without question that part of man that relates directly to God. It is god-breathed and god-related. We can communicate to God by our spirit and this is the only way we can communicate to Him. Apostle Paul said, “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.” (Romans 8:14-17) What a passage of truth! Every believer must learn to appreciate their spirit and the necessity of living in and by the spirit. It is our “well-being” in every sense of the word.

Since our spirit is life within us (It is the God-life of man) we must guard against anything that deadens that life or puts out the light of God in our person or soul. That’s exactly what sin was from the beginning and is now. It is the work of Satan and his fallen host to lead or influence us to sin so the light of God will go out in us and then these spirits can have freedom to operate. Listen to the Spirit speak to the church at Corinth. “Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.” (II Corinthians 6:14-17)

Your spirit will die within you if sin is allowed freedom in your life. Remember, that when you were saved, the Holy Spirit was said to “regenerate and renew” you unto salvation. “Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost.” (Titus 3:5) You were not saved by your good works, but by His grace and the glorious renewing of your dead spirit. Sin will put out the light of that spirit that dwells within and which gives you the joy of fellowship with God.

Sexual sins are sins against your own person and when allowed in your life start their horrible destruction by death to your spirit. With your spirit out of the way, the evil spirits will go to work without hindrance. It will not take long before your body begins to express the brokenness of your life.

King David cried, “Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.” (Psalm 51:10) The sin of fornication had put out the light and his body was bearing the result. While all sickness is sin-related by the fall in the garden, some sins like fornication are directly affecting our bodies today. Fornication is a “sin against your body.” (I Corinthians 6:18)

Look at what David said was wrong in his life. “There is no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither is there any rest in my bones because of my sin. For mine iniquities are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they are too heavy for me. My wounds stink and are corrupt because of my foolishness. I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long. For my loins are filled with a loathsome disease: and there is no soundness in my flesh. I am feeble and sore broken: I have roared by reason of the disquietness of my heart.” (Psalm 39:3-8) But God answered.

The beauty of God’s mercy can restore your soul. Sexual sins are grievous, but you can repent. Most sexual sins, when repented of early and quickly can be healed without lasting sorrow. Every day you continue in them makes repentance less likely and more difficult. The point can easily be passed where there is no returning and millions have passed that point. David was renewed and forgiven, but never saw his family whole again. He suffered every day the rest of his life for his sexual sins. Many are in this same shape today. You can be forgiven and then do all within your power to see those affected: your children, wife, husband, or friends, healed and forgiven. The Blood of Jesus Christ is speaking forgiveness and healing to every soul that will repent and turn totally to trust in the cross and the victory of His shed blood.
“What can wash away my sins?
Nothing but the Blood of Jesus.
What can make me whole again?
Nothing but the Blood of Jesus.
O, precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow.
No other fount I know
Nothing but the Blood of Jesus.”

    Thank you for this powerful message. Sexual sin has ruined my married and greatly affected my children. I’m trying my hardest to keep God first because anything or anybody else shouldn’t be first in my life. I’m happy now to say I’m free from sexual sin and unless I’m married again, I’m not having sex of any kind. Father, give me the the strength to honor you and to stay away from all forms of sexual sin. Keep my children safe from all harm. Please heal our minds, bodies and spirits from all weapons of the enemy in Jesus name! Glory be to God! Thank you Lord for all! Amen!

    What about a divorced person that gets divorced for a reason other than adultery and then re-marries? Does that person commit adultery?

  3. Bill Scudder

    What about a person that gets divorced and remarries? Is that person committing adultery if the divorce was not because of adultery?

    Christian Greetings Bill.

    Bill – divorce because of abuse is also accepted thru scripture. We must use common sense also. God would not want someone to stay married if they were being abused, especially to the point of danger to them or the children. Not sure what your situation was, but adultry IS NOT the only accepted divorce. Also, Jesus and the holy spirit begins a work in your when you accept Jesus as savior. Doesn’t mean you automatically become PURE or that you won’t fall from time to time. You repent to bring yourself back into fellowship with God, but you don’t LOSE your salvation if you comitt a sin. No one I MEAN NO ONE, on this earth is without sin. Those who still try to live under the law and claim the blood of Christ are living to different Covenants. Paul preached against this. He was very indepth into Christ’s reason for coming, dying and rising again. Pride is a huge sin. And one of the most dangerous ones out there. Some believe they DON’T sin because they are saved and can do no wrong. However, no one on this earth can be 100% pure while in the fallen world of sin. Leading a good life and obeying Christ will show your love for him, and reach others that you have been redeemed by the blood. Hope this helps if you read it. Stick to the New Testament teachings on Salvation. By Grace you are saved, it is a gift from God and not of works, lest any man should bost. That pretty much sums it up.

    SS:

    Of course I know that By Grace you are saved, it is a gift from God and not of works, lest any man should boast. But you did not answer my question.

  8. Bill Scudder

    SS–This was not my situation but there are a lot of Christians that have got divorced and are worried about getting married again. I believe when a person gets married again after divorce that they become one when they consummate that marriage. And no longer one with the divorced one. There is scripture for this. That does not mean that we take divorce lightly. It grieves God. I am a strong believer in Grace but Grace is not a license to sin. In fact the more you believe in Grace the stronger you are against temptation.
