I. Avoid Sexual Sin
1.
So many take sexual sin lightly.
(1) God will forgive me.
(2) Watch out for small beginnings
1) Sometimes starts with pornography
2) What’s the harm in a little innocent flirting?
(3) It can cause you to walk away from God or at least redefine Him in your own image.
2. So stay away from sexual sin
(1) Teaching this is a parents responsibility
1) They learn from television
2) They learn from movies
3) They learn from teachers
4) They learn from peers
(2) Churches need to be experts and not avoid the subject
1) God hits the subject head on
2) God views sex as a beautiful thing in the right context
iews sex as a beautiful thing in the right context
(3) Speaks of a woman being the seducer only because it is a father talking to a son.
1) If you are a woman just reverse the image
3. Watch out for WORDS (5:1-4; 6:24; 7:1-5)
(1) This is the first way you are drawn into sexual sin.
(2) Words can pull you away from your marriage vows
She/he was just sharing his/her problems with me
(3) How it works.
They laugh at your jokes
You can talk to them and they don’t criticize you
They interact with you on Facebook and it make you feel something
They understand you
Just a flirty text message - no big deal
(4) You are forging emotional intimacy
(5) Sometimes the world is sending the messages
It’s ok to mess around
How will I know if I don’t try them out
Guys like girls like that
Follow your heart
Do what makes you happy
(6) Romance Novels
50 Shades of Gray
1) You are emotionally investing in a man who is not your husband
2) I wish my husband were more like this
4. Watch Out For LOOKS (6:25)
(1) Remember Jesus warned us of the same thing
Lust starts in the heart - to lust after her is to commit the sin
(2) Be careful what you feast your eyes on
Porn is so readily avilable
Computer, phone, tablet, tv, movies, magazines
(3) The importance of modesty in our Christian young ladies
II.
This Sin Can Kill You
1.
It will destroy you now (5:9-14; 6:26-35)
When you obey God you receive blessings you didn’t work for, but when you disobey even what you worked for can be lost
You will waste time, energy, and resources
Someone else will kiss your wife and tuck your kids in
You may lose your health
STD’s
You will be filled with regret
2. Don’t get mad when your spouse comes to you with a concern
3. Ultimately you may be publicly shamed - and blaming everyone else
4. It will destroy you eternally (5:21-23; 7:10-27)

III.

A little romance won’t kill you
