1.It breaks God’s laws and dishonors Him.
2. It presents huge physical risk—diseases
and illness are rampant among those who
engage in this lifestyle.
3. It presents huge emotional risk—a
physical and emotional bond without a
spiritual commitment is never a winning
experience.
4. It presents huge spiritual risk—offending God
means we forfeit God’s best. We never win
by dishonoring God.
5. It is awkward, guilt ridden, unfulfilling,
and not representative of God’s original
intent—hence a culture that continually
seeks fulfillment with new partners and
relationships.
6. It is disappointing at the physical,
emotional, and spiritual levels—the only
physical intimacy that exceeds expectations
is that founded on long-term commitment
and marital growth.
7. It destroys trust—the best way to have
trust in a marriage is to stay pure before
you get married. Learning to be committed
to God is the best way to learn
to be committed to a spouse.
8. It creates resentment and frustration—it
was designed to happen within a
committed marriage of selfless love.
Outside of that, fornication just breaks the
heart and wounds the soul.
9. It leaves you empty and searching for
real love—physical intimacy doesn’t create
a loving, committed relationship, it’s the
fruit of one.
10. It creates children without strong homes
—God intends this relationship to create a
family with a foundation of commitment
and lifetime love.
11. It feeds the abortion industry—illicit
relationship creates unwanted children
which creates “the abortion industry.”
12. It attempts to shortcut God’s plan for
marriage and family—it turns God’s great
gift of family and love into a cheap thrill
and self-centered pleasure quest.
13. It prevents you from having the most
fulfilling sexual relationship—while a
person is sleeping around, they are NOT
preparing for the wonderful lifetime
relationship that God intended.
14. It enlarges sexual desires and makes
them insatiable—thinking with your
hormones allows them to become an
unruly taskmaster.
15. It puts the flesh and hormones in
control of your life—you are more than a
chemical reaction that seeks gratification.
Don’t allow your life to be directed by
physical desires. Submit those desires to
the God, and let them be fulfilled in
God’s time and in God’s way.
