to eXXit, the web site designed to help you stand
strong in the face of sexual temptation.
Passage:
Proverbs
23:26-28*
26. Give me your heart, my
son,
And let your eyes delight in my ways.
27. For a harlot is a deep
pit,
And an adulterous woman is a narrow well.
28. Surely she lurks as a
robber,
And increases the faithless among men.
Questions
1. What is it that sexual
sin (like the harlot) robs us of?
2. What can you do to protect
yourself from getting ripped off?
Practical
help
The idea of a fling with
an adulterous woman may promise some sense of
exhilaration and satisfaction. Web porn is like that.
The problem is that she takes more than she gives. The
price is your character. Web porn is like that,
too!
Resist the pull to use smut
today. It will cost you dearly if you give in. Ask
yourself, is it really worth it? It may seem difficult
to resist in the beginning, but let your delight be in
the Lord Jesus and His ways. He will be your
strength.
