Passing the Purity Test
Robert Morris
Spaghetti and blankets!
Genesis 39:7
And it came to pass after these things that his master’s wife cast longing eyes on
Joseph, and she said, “Lie with me.”
Genesis 39:8
But he refused and said to his master’s wife, “Look, my master does not know what is with me in the house, and he has committed all that he has to my hand.
Genesis 39:9
There is no one greater in this house than I, nor has he kept back anything from me but you, because you are his wife.
How then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?”
Genesis 39:10
So it was, as she spoke to Joseph day by day, that he did not heed her, to lie with her or to be with her.
Genesis 39:11
But it happened about this time, when Joseph went into the house to do his work, and none of the men of the house was inside,
Genesis 39:12
that she caught him by his garment, saying, “Lie with me.”
But he left his garment in her hand, and fledand ranoutside.
This is congruent with 1 Cor 6:18 Flee sexual immorality!
• Sexual Purity is a character issue and like all character issues,
• It is a part of our foundation as a person.
1. Impurity affects your family.
2 Samuel 11:2
Then it happened one evening that David arose from his bed and walked on the roof of the king’s house.
And from the roof he saw a woman bathing, and the woman was very beautiful to behold.
2 Samuel 13:1
After this Absalom the son of David had a lovely sister, whose name was Tamar; and Amnon the son of David lovedher.
2 Samuel 13:2
Amnon was so distressed over his sister Tamar that he became sick; for she was a virgin.
And it was improper for Amnon to do anything to her.
Deuteronomy 27:22
“‘Cursed is the one who lies with his sister, the daughter of his father or the daughter of his mother.’”
2 Samuel 13:3
But Amnon had a friend whose name was Jonadab the son of Shimeah, David’s brother.
Now Jonadab was a very crafty man.
2 Samuel 13:4
And he said to him, “Why are you, the king’s son, becoming thinner day after day?
Will you not tell me?” Amnon said to him, “I love Tamar, my brother Absalom’s sister.”
2 Samuel 13:5
So Jonadab said to him, “Lie down on your bed and pretend to be ill.
And when your father comes to see you, say to him, ‘Please let my sister Tamar come and give me food, and prepare the food in my sight, that I may see it and eat it from her hand.’”
2 Samuel 13:6
Then Amnon lay down and pretended to be ill; and when the king came to see him, Amnon said to the king, “Please let Tamar my sister come and make a couple of cakes for me in my sight, that I may eat from her hand.”
2 Samuel 13:7
And David sent home to Tamar, saying, “Now go to your brother Amnon’s house, and prepare food for him.”
2 Samuel 13:8
So Tamar went to her brother Amnon’s house; and he was lying down.
Then she took flour and kneaded it, made cakes in his sight, and baked the cakes.
2 Samuel 13:9
And she took the pan and placed them out before him, but he refused to eat.
Then Amnon said, “Have everyone go out from me.”
And they all went out from him.
2 Samuel 13:10
Then Amnon said to Tamar, “Bring the food into the bedroom, that I may eat from your hand.”
And Tamar took the cakes which she had made, and brought them to Amnon her brother in the bedroom.
2 Samuel 13:11
Now when she had brought them to him to eat, he took hold of her and said to her, “Come, lie with me, my sister.”
2 Samuel 13:12
But she answered him, “No, my brother, do not force me, for no such thing should be done in Israel.
Do not do this disgraceful thing!
2 Samuel 13:13
And I, where could I take my shame?
And as for you, you would be like one of the fools in Israel.
Now therefore, please speak to the king; for he will not withhold me from you.”
2 Samuel 13:14
However, he would not heed her voice; and being stronger than she, he forced her and lay with her.
2 Samuel 13:15
Amnon hated her exceedingly
, so that the
hatred
greater
than the
love
with which he had
loved
Then with which he hated her was her.
And Amnon said to her,
“Arise, be gone!”
2 Samuel 13:16
So she said to him, “No, indeed!
This evil of sending me away is worse than the other that you did to me.”
But he would not listen to her.
2 Samuel 13:17
Then he called his servant who attended him, and said, “Here!
Put this woman out, away from me, and bolt the door behind her.”
Love can turn to lust and when lust is fulfilled
• It can turn to hate!
Why didn’t David see through this?
• Because he had opened the door to impurity himself!
2. Impurity affects your faith.
If we’re going to get married, what difference does a piece of paper make?
• None! It’s the consequences of impurity that make the difference!
• God is not a prude!
It’s for our good!
Don’t play in the street!
When you walk in sexual impurity, you learn how to lie and be deceptive
• You develop an appetite for sneaking around sex
• Once you get married, you don’t have to sneak around anymore!
