How To Avoid Sexual Compromise
Let’s take a quick look at how to avoid sexual compromise. Sexual compromises are violations of God’s injunction and will always end up in a loss of favor from God. Since you don’t want this, the next best thing to do is to actively seek to pit the flesh under.
I will talk about Two ways:
(1) Marriage
1Co 7:2 KJV Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.
Let’s also check this in the Message Translation
1Co 7:2 MSG Certainly–but only within a certain context. It’s good for a man to have a wife, and for a woman to have a husband. Sexual drives are strong, but marriage is strong enough to contain them and provide for a balanced and fulfilling sexual life in a world of sexual disorder.
The Bible recognizes that sexual drives are strong. Don’t be holier than God. Simply get married! What if you are already married? Stay married and focus on your spouse!
What is the second way to handle sexual compromise?
(2) Run away.
1Co 6:18 KJV Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.
Flee: Greek – “pheugo” – to run away, by implication to shun, and by analogy to vanish. Also means to escape.
Don’t bother to speak phonetics, run
When the Bible says “flee,” don’t say “let’s reason together”
The purpose of your body is that you might serve the Lord, not for sexual antics.
1Co 6:13 KJV Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.
Good morning.
