Passage: Galatians 6:7-8*

7. Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, this he will also reap.

8. For the one who sows to his own flesh shall from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit shall from the Spirit reap eternal life.

Questions

1. What are the possible consequences in your life of continuing with a Web porn habit?

 

2. How does your use of Web porn impact the lives of those you love?

 

Practical help

The passage addresses the direct cause-effect relationship associated with habitual sins in our lives. We can’t continue in a particular area of sin without eventually suffering the negative consequences. Think about the cost in your life and in the lives of those closest to you of continuing to sow to the flesh through Web porn use. Consider the wreckage that porn users eventually suffer:

1. LOST intimacy with your spouse if you are married and with your future spouse if you one day hope to marry.

2. WEAKENED spiritual vitality and freedom in your relationship with God.

3. HUMILIATION to you and those closest to you when your porn use is exposed.

Is it worth it?

Remember, God’s grace abounds for each of us right now. Turn to Him now instead of clicking your way to that smut site. Talk to someone you trust and get help.
