No adultery

Woman and man were made for each other. They are complimentary. God designed marriage to create children. Marriage is a convenant between two people that produces off spring.. Two men and two women together can not fulfill this mandate. Let no one be faithless to the wife of his youth...Malachi.  The sexual act seals the covenant. The aim of children can not always be achieved but Marriage is orientated to raising children. The relationship between Christ and the church is a paradigm of marriage. The husband (Christ) cherishes and the wife ( church) who submits. This then is about safe- guarding marriage. Pornaya is illicit sex (think pornography). Jesus knew that this commandment covers a multitude of sins. The New Testament includes homosexuality in this commandment. Jesus adds lust, coveting or longing for. Thinking someone is pretty is not what is meant. Hardly anyone escapes Jesus' words.
The tempted, the wayward and the broken hearted... 
1. To the tempted. Do you think you deserve sexual indulgence? God will not let you be tempted beyond your ability. The Lord is good to him who waits for him. Let's not wander down the path to the forbidden woman or man. Her speech is smoother than oil but in the end she is as bitter as wormwood!(Proverbs ch5 vs 3-4).
He who is joined to a prostitute becomes one body with her, the two become one flesh (think soul ties ..editor). He who is joined to the Lord becomes one Spirit with Him, free from sexual immorality. Your body is a temple ...1 Cor 6 15-20. Put to death what is earthly. God opposes the proud. Humble yourselfs before the Lord and He will excult you. The will of God is that you abstain from sexual immorality. God calls us to be holy. If we confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins. The promise for the pure is nothing less than God Himself!

    1. Is that some sexual reference? I’d stop reading that pornographic literature if I were you. The bible distorts minds don’t you know.
