But sexual immorality and all impurity or covetousness must not even be named among you, as is proper among saints. Let there be no filthiness nor foolish talk nor crude joking, which are out of place, but instead let there be thanksgiving. (Ephesians 5:3, 4 ESV)
Dear Ones
Sexual immorality, impurity, covetousness, filthiness, foolish talk, crude jokes are things that would describe our society. So clear in scripture it tells us that we are to stay away from it. That these things are not to be NAMED among God's people. Yet these very things are exactly what you see within the body as well as on the streets. In most of these things, there is not difference between a heathen and one who states they live for Christ. It should not be! There should be distinct differences but there isn't.
Why?? Why do we cling to sin?
People know it is wrong who are believers to have sex out of marriage. They know that the Word of God is clear on that, but the Church pretends this is not happening. They turn a blinds eye to the impurity, and allow people to take communion, to move forward within the church as leaders and to serve within its walls. Are we being like Eli- who knew his sons were sinning within the temple, the house of God and he Never stopped them. Yes he told them, he scolded them for their sins, but He never stopped them. Yes the church says don't do these things but there is no consequences for them. They can continue on in their sins, with just mere words in which they had chosen to ignore in first place.
My heart screams- STOP- Stop making a mockery of God. Stop Stop Stop!!!
Lord have mercy on us. Lead us in your right way. Help us Lord to see the sin, and name it, forsake it and make people stand on your Word. Lord you command your people to live by your Word, to follow your ways, and to purify themselves! Purify the righteous Lord Help us to submit and to love you more than our own bodies.
In Jesus Name
Amen
