Run!

God gives us a very straight forward warning with this verse:



1 Corinthians 6:18

18 Flee sexual immorality.



While our society keeps turning up the pressure on sexual images such as movies, T.V. shows, internet, magazines, ect. Men and Women both use sex and their bodies for personal gain instead of what God intended in marriage alone. God tells us to flee these things. Flee doesn't mean get as close as you can and then try to get away. Flee means as soon as you notice anything even close to the hint of being wrong to RUN!!!! Get out of there. One of the best examples in the Bible of this is Joesph. Check this out!



Genesis 39:10-13





10 So it was, as she spoke to Joseph day by day, that he did not heed her, to lie with her or to be with her.

11 But it happened about this time, when Joseph went into the house to do his work, and none of the men of the house was inside, 12 that she caught him by his garment, saying, “Lie with me.” But he left his garment in her hand, and fled and ran outside. 13 And so it was, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand and fled outside,



Joesph ran!!!! So we can take from his example this morning, when sexual temptation comes in any form....Run!
