Have you ever heard of “holy matrimony”? In the defense of marriage I never hear marriage called holy anymore. Jesus said that in the beginning God created mankind, male and female. He created one of each and told the couple. “Be fruitful and multiply an fill the earth.” Paul writes that the marriage bed is undefiled but adulterers will be destroyed.
GOD’S STANDARD
You see sexual activity between husband and wife is holy because God created it that way, but sexual activity outside of it is adultery. This brings a broader meaning to the word than is found in the dictionary.
Altering or deviating from God’s intended use of sex, which is intended exclusively for each married couple, is adultery. Thus, homosexuality is a form of adultery Bill Clinton said that it did not make it the top ten (commandments).
IMMORALITY ENUMERATED
In the book of Leviticus, which is one of the first five books of the Bible, there are many other sexual prohibitions which would be forms of adultery as well. One of them is to have sexual relations with an animal (bestiality). No sexual relations with your neighbor’s wife. Do not take a wife and her mother or her sister. A man should not lie with his father’s wife. You shall not approach any that is near of kin to uncover their nakedness. Neither the nakedness of your father or your mother. Do not uncover the nakedness of your sister. Don’t uncover the nakedness of your fathers with your mother your sister.
Do not uncover the nakedness of your father’s brother and don’t get involved with his wife. Do not uncover the nakedness of your daughter-in-law or the nakedness of your brother’s wife. Do not uncover a woman during her menstrual cycle.
These abominations were done by the men of Canaan, therefore God sent Israel into the land with the command to kill every man, woman and child in the land. Israel was warned by God that if they defiled the land by abhorrent sexual behavior that the land would spew them out as the nations that were before them.
CONSEQUENCES OF IMMORAL BEHAVIOR
God is no respecter of persons; America is as responsible before God as any other nation. With evil conduct among the people of any nation, the land could throw out its inhabitants. How do we know that the war on terror is not a result of our own evil conduct?
