Discovering Our Purpose Living G-rated Lives in an X-rated World

The challenge of sexual immorality Immorality--Premarital sexual relationships, adultery, homosexuality Impurity--Sexual conduct that makes one unclean. Greed--Lust or obsession that is idolatry Filthiness--Foul language, shameful talk Silly talk--Foolish speech Course jesting--”Dirty” jokes

Why these things must be put away Because they are shameful Because they are unfruitful Because they evoke the wrath of God Because they will result in eternal condemnation

The solution to sexual immorality Imitate God and walk in love Vocalize gratitude to God for His blessings Realize our calling as unique people Adopt a confrontational mindset toward sexual evil

As Christians we must be little islands of purity in a sea of immorality. We cannot afford to let down our guard.
