MEMORY VERSE: “For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you should abstain from sexual immorality”. — 1Thessalonians 4:3(NKJV)

BIBLE PASSAGE: 1Corinthians 6:15-20

15 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.

16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.

17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.

18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

19 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?

20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.

INTRODUCTION
Purity is important to God and staying sexually pure before and during marriage is trendy because purity has to do with the mind and the act. The sex journey starts from the mind, no wonder Jesus says whoever looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her. Also, Hebrews 13:4 boldly declares that a marriage is honourable when the bed is undefiled. Premarital sex lustful sexual thoughts, and any form of sexual vices are not acceptable to God because God is holy and we are His temple.

LESSON OUTLINE

  1. ILLS OF PREMARITAL SEX AND LUSTFUL THOUGHTS.
  2. WHY SEXUAL PURITY IS COOL

ILLS OF PREMARITAL SEX AND LUSTFUL THOUGHTS.

To engage in premarital sex (sex before marriage) is to commit a grievous sin in God’s sight (1Corinthians 10:8) and to also sin against one’s body (1Corinthians 6:18). Premarital sex also comes with a sense of hatred or guilt that haunts it victims (2Samuel 13:15). Unwanted pregnancy may result from this illicit sexual act, thus, bringing about shame and it may even result in abortion- which is murder (Exodus 20:13). Some Sexually Transmitted Infections/Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STI/STDs), HIV/AIDS, etc. may result from this illicit act. Also, the negative emotional and phycological impacts of premarital sexual behavior such as; a life of regrets, loss of self-respect, depression (2Samuel 13:19-20), loss of family support, substance abuse, and even suicide are some problems associated with illicit sexual activities.

Apart from the fact that lustful thoughts are sinful (Matthew 5:28), they also help to trigger illicit sex (Mark 7:21) and defile it’s victims (Romans 1:24). In it all, the judgement of God is on those who defile themselves (1Corinthians 3:17). Engaging in uncontrollable lustful thought is a sign that one is not filled with the Holy Spirit as one should (1Thessalonians 4:3-5).

WHY SEXUAL PURITY IS COOL

Sexual purity bring liberty from sin and produces holy vessels that are in ruffled (cool) and free from self guilt (Galatians 5:1-2, 2Timothy2:22). Staying pure sexually prevents emotional entanglements that may negatively affect future relationship and marriages (1Corinthians 6:16). It secures one’s destiny for good (Genesis 39:12; 41:38-42). The pure in heart are blessed because they will see God (Matthew 5:8). Sexual purity helps to maintain a steady relationship with God (Psalm 24:3-4). It also brings about peace with God and with oneself (Romans 8:6). The fear of contracting STIs/STDs will be eliminated. Unlawful partners do not have access to your godly temple (2Corinthians 6:15-16). You honour God and he honours you in return (1Samuel 2:30b).

CONCLUSION
Staying sexually pure is realistic when the flesh is put under subjection all the time and the Holy Spirit is in control.
