Wisdom Delivers From An Immoral Lifestyle

by willetta pilcher

Today's society embraces an immoral lifestyle for the young (and old alike) but God never has. Paul wrote, "Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body. " [1 Corinthians 6:18]

The medical community bears out the truth of that statement. Consider for a moment some statistical information:

Chlamydia is a sexually transmitted bacterium infection transmitted during oral, vaginal, or anal sexual contact with an infected partner. It can cause serious problems in men and women as well as in newborn babies of infected mothers. The U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that more than 4 million people become infected each year. Estimations suggest that the infection costs Americans more than $2 billion a year.

Gonococcal infections occur 62 million cases worldwide. The symptoms are inflammation of the mucosa of the birth canal, of the mucous membrane of the throat, and/or rectum. The possible complications that it introduces to its victim are septicemia (blood poisoning), arthritis, endocarditis (inflammation of the lining of the heart) and meningitis (inflammation of the membranes of the brain and spinal cord, characterized by fever, vomiting, intense headache, and stiff neck.

Syphilis is the most deadly STD (sexually transmitted diseases) apart from AIDS. Signs of this bacterial infection range from skin eruptions to complications of the heart and nervous system. It affects about 12 million people

Trichomonas is a parasitic infection that infects some 170 million.

Then there is Genital Herpes, for which there is no cure. Just continued itching, burning, blisters and misery with repeated outbreaks for the rest of ones life! Genital Herpes is carried by the male without his ever knowing he has it. The only way he can 'pick it up' is through sexual activity with an infected partner. Image the distress of a 'virgin' young woman finding out she has Genital Herpes because her husband co-habited with someone else!

AIDS adds even more problems. And we haven't mentioned unwanted pregnancy or the emotional impact of such a lifestyle.

The immoral really do reap, in their own body, the fruit of their ways. The scriptures warn us. If we are wise, we will listen to the warning.

Proverbs 2:10-19 "For wisdom will enter your heart, and knowledge will be pleasant Discretion will protect you, and understanding will guard you. Wisdom will save you from the adulteress, from the wayward wife with her seductive words, who has left the partner of her youth and ignored the covenant she made before God. For her house leads down to death None who go to her return or attain the paths of life."

When virgins (both male and female) keep themselves sexually pure, they never need be concerned with these diseases. They are reserved for the immoral.
