Chapter 19: Myth—Sexuality Doesn’t Matter

gatekeeper also informs us when we get off base with one of His threatening statements from the Holy Bible. “Thus sayeth the Lord…!”

The question is are we listening? Do we take Him seriously? The Bible teaches us: “Has He said and will He not do?” When He says that our sexual immorality will lead to our destruction, will He carry through on His

threat? Has He already done this before? Is that His character? Listen, take a journey and read the Bible’s stories of sexual immorality and see that God means exactly what He says. You can start with Noah and the story of why the flood occurred. There are many examples of the destruction of people

for sexual immorality. Trust me, you can take God at His Word.

We enter into sexual immorality at the beginning of our sexual heart “obsessions” [lewdness]. They cause a “preoccupation” with sex and before we realize it we are engaging in sexually enticing behavior of the kind that

God condemns [lasciviousness]. The next Level III finds us engrossed in unrestrained wanton acts of sex with total disregard for all morality in God’s perspective [licentiousness]. In all levels, we are sexually out of control and headed for the lake of fire. Yet even in our acts of sexual immorality there

are many precursors; spiritual warning signs all along our immoral pathway.

Think about Clinton’s White House adultery. Now work backwards from his impeachment trial. Before impeachment occurred, he had lied to a

Federal Court under oath. Note: Many people think Clinton was impeached because of illicit sex in the Oval office, but this is not the case. Clinton was impeached because as our chief law enforcer, he lied under oath in Federal Court [liar]. And, before that what? He did engage in an illicit sexual affair

with Monica Lewinsky [licentiousness]. At some prior point, he engaged in sexually flirtatious behavior with the intern [lasciviousness]. And before that, came his obsession with having “immoral sex” [lewdness]. Should we have been surprised? No. We shouldn’t have been surprised because as

Governor of Arkansas, Clinton had exhibited licentious behavior over many years with many women. Elect a sexually immoral person president and you still have a sexually immoral person. If you think morality is irrelevant to the U.S. presidency, you are a spiritually ignorant person. At the very least,

we deserve the right to elect a moral president to guide our country and not a liar who would destroy people to cover up his illicit sexual affairs.
