1 Corinthians 6:18-20

1 Corinthians 6:18-20 (KJV)

Flee fornication.  Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.  What? Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?

While this is a sensitive topic, it’s important to remember that God created sex for the enjoyment of married couples, period, and end of story.  Yes, this is the same God that created us with feelings and desires to enjoy it.  But don’t forget about the fruits of the Spirit, which includes self control.  This is not to condemn those of us that have made the mistake of fornication or adultery, and have repented for our sins, but He will hold us accountable for not declaring what He clearly outlines in His Word regarding this subject, but also practicing it, thinking that as long as no one knows, it’s ok.  The devil is a liar!  God loves us enough to do whatever it takes in order to get our attention for us to stop sinning.  We must be strong enough to cry out to the Lord for help if we struggle in this area in any way.  We belong to God, so why would we want to sell ourselves short?
