Honor God by keeping our bodies holly

"Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge." (Hebrews 13:4)
As Christians we are called to a higher standard, sadly most times we fail, but there is good new for you of River City :) any way bottom line, your God grants us new grace and mercy each day. So while we battle with these issue of our flesh since the divine union of Adam and Eve, the institution of marriage has been between a man and woman. However, the "bed" has often been defiled.  We are to give honor to God by keeping our body clean. Young ladies and young men do not realize that sex was meant for marriage. For once a women gives herself to that man in olden days that meant they were married. So each time a man lays with a women how many wives would some young men have today, if we were still to live under that rule?
Yes, but times have changed, we are told. The so-called "gay" lifestyle is now a normal option, they say, and even "same-sex" marriages are acceptable. Premarital sex, as well as adultery, are very common today, all over the world, often even impacting Christian homes and churches. Indeed, the world has changed!
The Greek word for "whoremongers," incidentally, includes anyone who practices or promotes illicit sex and the Bible says that "whoremongers and adulterers God will judge." However, God will forgive and purge away any of these sins when they are repudiated and Christ is accepted as Savior. So let no man be deceived you do not have to remain a prisoner to your flesh, give the issue of your flesh to God.

Hey Dr. H you really believe that people especially your Christian types, really believe in marriage, if so please explain this one as you do with every other question I have asked you so far. Why is that you have double the divorce rate of us sinners? While are there so many perverts in the cloth? Why are over half of your men in the church addicted to porn? Are their wives that ugly? Just to fat or just to lazy to take care of their husbands. Or does that scripture that tells wives to submit to their husband does not apply to his sexual needs?

Again I will give you credit were credit is due sounds like if I were to be believe in Christ and were around when you speaking I would be there with the homeless to hear your message. It felt real and not like most preachers I have heard or seen. Good job Dr. H but how long do you honestly think you can keep this up, before you grow tired like all of your church people all of them supposedly care about the sinner but when my Father fell no one came around, so are you guys only brothers on Sunday? Your just one man surely Dr. H you don't expect to change anything do you???
