Welcome to eXXit, the web site designed to help you stand strong in the face of sexual temptation.

Passage: Deuteronomy 32:47*

They are not just idle words for you -- they are your life.

Questions

1. How can God's words become your life?

 

2. What can this idea teach us about Web porn?

 

Practical help

In the movie "The Dead Poets' Society," prep school students find a new zest for life by following a simple rule of thumb: Seize the day.

This verse in Deuteronomy communicates the same message. By taking Scripture as more than just "idle words," the Old Testament believers found life itself. The deadening experience of Web porn proves out this truth.

Think about the last time you logged onto a Web porn site. You probably felt a familiar cycle of emotions: temptation, excitement, and finally despair. Ingesting porn consumes your very existence.

The next time your tempted to sneak a peek, picture yourself grasping the truth of God's word — his promise of unconditional love — and seize the day.
