“ Be brave & be strong”
I f God did look at sex the way some church people look at it, we all would be in serious trouble. Humanity cannot overcome any of our inborn natures. If you can stop eating, stop going to the toilet, stop running away from dangers and stop, going to sleep then you can stop permanently having sex.
Much prayers is not going to let the sex urges go away. It is one of five instincts that God gave to man. Praying is not going to let your food seeking urges go away. It will not let your urges to flee to safety go away. It will not stop you from wanting to go to the toilet when nature calls. You will need to take an intelligent step in understanding how and when to use this urges, in fact it will dictate to you and I when it is being uses.
God himself has invented sex, for the continuing of the human race. God told Adam and Eve to multiply and replenish the Earth, back then the only way they know how to continue the human race was by the good old fashion sex.
A recent study done by medical researchers on the death of 1,100 Catholic priests showed that these priests had significantly higher incidence of prostate cancer than the average male population. This unique condition is related causally to the practice of celibacy, according to Taoist teaching.
Sexuality is a natural part of human existence, and should not be isolated and handles in the way we do, simple because of what it is; in fact, all of us are here because of sex. If somebody did not get the sexual urges and act upon it, earth would not have replenished it self, so often as it did after two world wars and so many battles, death and destructions, also many out brakes of diseases, famines and earth quakes, no other forces or urges to live keep earth going, but sex.
Because disuse of any part of the body atrophies that part of the body, and any atrophy leads to disease, the inevitable result of celibacy will be atrophy of the sexual glands namely the prostate gland and cancer of the prostate. Neglect, another form of disuse, can also lead to prostate cancer. In the opposite extreme, excessive masturbation, induced by celibacy, also cause cancer. These problems are not limited to men, because celibate women also suffer from female organ problems.
From the Taoist viewpoint, practicing celibacy is about the most harmful thing you can do to your body. Denying attention or the right to function to any part of your body is foolish, as foolish as rejecting the use of your eyes and ears. Not using any portion of your body for its normal purpose will create a harmful imbalance which can affect every other part of your body, since all bodily functions are interconnected.” :The Tao of sexology, by Dr. Stephen T. Chang. Page 191
Not having sex can just be as dangerous as promiscuous. Not having sex can cause the person to suffer sex organ atrophy. Atrophy mean. 1. Pathology. A wasting or decrease in size of a bodily organ, tissue, or part owing to disease, injury, or lack of use: muscular atrophy of a person affected with paralysis Any part of the body that is not being use after a while suffers atrophy. We might have heard the old saying" If you do not use it you loose it"
This is one of the doctrines that is most miss understand in the Bible, and there are very few doctrines like the doctrine of sex, in fact it is the only teaching that has never been fully expound on by the Church, you hear very little about sex from the pulpit, and whenever you hear any thing it is always in the negative, with some blood and hell fire attach to it, people talk about sex in a hush, hush kind of way, it is look down upon as the great sin, people in the church think that they are saved because they have not indulged in sexual practice. It is the only doctrine that is left up to the ungodly people to teach. Everybody who has the gift or the need for sex participates in the act some way or another, but no body is willing to say yes we do. Because of the mentalities that have surrounded sex, many people do not know the right and wrong about sex, even among some people who are married; they still feel guilty when they participate in sexual activity. However, a careful and intelligent study of the Bible is the only way to determine the right wrong about sex.
Sins that conflicts with our inborn instinct do not go way over night:
The first is the instinct of self- preservation, which warns us of danger and enables us to care for ourselves.
This is why we know that this verse to turn the other cheek is not to be taking literally, because it is contrary to the self preservation instincts.
Matthew 5:39 (KJV) However, I say unto you, that ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
The second, the acquisitive (getting) instinct, which leads us to acquire the necessities for self-support? Third, the food-seeking instincts, an impulse that leads to the satisfying of natural hunger”:“
Proverbs 30:9-AV Lest I be full, and deny [thee], and say, Who [is] the LORD? or lest I be poor, and steal, and take the name of my God [in vain].” If we are hungry we will condensed to thievery. Matthew 12:1-AV At that time Jesus went on the Sabbath day through the corn; and his disciples were an hungred, and began to pluck the ears of corn, and to eat.
THE SEX SIN
1Corinthians 7:8-AV I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I. 1Corinthians 7:9-AV But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.
Fifth, the instinct of dominance, which leads to the exercise of that self-assertion necessitated by one's calling and responsibilities. "By Myer Pearlman. Knowing the doctrines of the Bible. Page 108. The Lord will not move any of these instincts from our body. Give your self time, and confess your sins to the lord daily.
Many of you might remember when the word “Gay” mean happy. However today it has a different meaning. Words changes and take on new meaning as it goes from one generation to the next. Fornication might not exactly mean what you think it mean. You will need to go back to the time when the apostles uses the word, and do a word study on it to see what it really mean then. Because what it means then, is what the apostles is talking about.
Matthew 5:32 (KJV) But I say unto you, that whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.
John 8:41 (KJV) Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, we be not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God.
THERE ARE SOME WHO CANNOT DO WITHOUT?
God himself has invented sex, for the continuing of the human race. God told Adam and Eve to multiply and replenish the Earth, back then the only way they know how to continue the human race was by the good old fashion sex.
1Corinthians 7:9-AV But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn. Matthew 19:11-AV But he said unto them, All [men] cannot receive this saying, save [they] to whom it is given. Matthew 19:12-AV For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from [their] mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive [it], let him receive [it].
Genesis 1:26-AV And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
Genesis 1:27-AV So God created man in his [own] image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. Genesis 1:28-AV And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
Genesis 1:29-AV And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which [is] upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which [is] the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
One of the reasons why Christians run into trouble where sex is concern is because they will not take an intelligent look at it. "Sex is a part of life. Because it showers upon us life beauty and pleasure, it is far too precious to be abused. Almost as if to guard sex from abuse, nature has set up strict system of checks and balances that automatically metes out terrible diseases as punishments for the abuse of sex. Disease itself is a kind of blessing, because it is nature's way of incapacitating the few to save the many." By Dr. Stephen T. Chang.
REASON WHY I DECIDED TO WRITE THIS BOOK.
Numbers 5:29-AV This [is] the law of jealousies, when a wife goeth aside [to another] instead of her husband, and is defiled; Numbers 5:30-AV Or when the spirit of jealousy cometh upon him, and he be jealous over his wife, and shall set the woman before the LORD, and the priest shall execute upon her all this law. Numbers 5:31-AV Then shall the man be guiltless from iniquity, and this woman shall bear her iniquity. Numbers 5:26-AV And the priest shall take an handful of the offering, [even] the memorial thereof, and burn [it] upon the altar, and afterward shall cause the woman to drink the water. Numbers 5:27-AV And when he hath made her to drink the water, then it shall come to pass, [that], if she be defiled, and have done trespass against her husband, that the water that causeth the curse shall enter into her, [and become] bitter, and her belly shall swell, and her thigh shall rot: and the woman shall be a curse among her people. Numbers 5:28-AV And if the woman be not defiled, but be clean; then she shall be free, and shall conceive seed.
Any thing that causes sexual disruption within the marriage causes the spirit of Jealously to come upon either spouse. If the woman is at fault she will be punished in time, by spending her life alone in old age, are keep getting married to several men who end the same was as the first marriage. If the man is the problem, he too will be punishing in time.
CHRISTIAN’S MARITAL FAILURES.
# 1 The first one is within the work place or school. The second place is within your own church. The third time Satan will attack the believers is within the marriage life. If there is unsatisfied sex between husband and wife, Satan has the advantage over them, it will not be long before Satan brings down the marriage like how a hungry wolf would bring down a wounded lamb.
CHRISTIANS DO NOT GET IT, SATAN DO NOT WANT THEM TO HAVE SEX.
2 Timothy 1:5-AV When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that in thee also.
Genesis 38:7-AV And Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD slew him. Genesis 38:8-AV And Judah said unto Onan, Go in unto thy brother’s wife, and marry her, and rise up seed to thy brother. Genesis 38:9-AV And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it came to pass, when he went in unto his brother's wife, that he spilled [it] on the ground, lest that he should give seed to his brother. Genesis 38:10-AV And the thing, which he did, displeased the LORD: wherefore he slew him also.
SAVED BECAUSE OF CHILDBEARING
Many Christians just never seem to understand that it is Satan that does not want them to have sex and have children. Eve salvation was cement by child bearing. Child bearing was one of the qualifications to receive widow’s benefits in the early church. 1Timothy 5:9-AV Let not a widow be taken into the number under threescore years old, having been the wife of one man,
1Timothy 5:10-AV Well reported of for good works; if she have brought up children, if she have lodged strangers, if she have washed the saints' feet, if she have relieved the afflicted, if she have diligently followed every good work
The feet washing in this text is not necessarily speaking of the hypocritical feet washing that I have seen happening in some church. Where friends wash friend feet. However, I have nothing against feet washing. And did not say it was neither wrong nor right. We Christians make a bigger fuss about sex, suppose God did make the fuss what we make? Many of us would have been consumed long ago. We make holiness more holy that what God intend it to be
Jeremiah 29:4-AV Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, unto all that are carried away captives, whom I have caused to be carried away from Jerusalem unto Babylon; Jeremiah 29:5-AV Build ye houses, and dwell [in them]; and plant gardens, and eat the fruit of them; Jeremiah 29:6-AV Take ye wives, and beget sons and daughters; and take wives for your sons, and give your daughters to husbands, that they may bear sons and daughters; that ye may be increased there, and not diminished. Jeremiah 29:7-AV And seek the peace of the city whither I have caused you to be carried away captives, and pray unto the LORD for it: for in the peace thereof shall ye have peace.
I do not agree with some Christians who just sit their day in day out night in night out burning and refusing to marry only to prove to God that they love him. God does not want us to prove anything to him. God has foreknowledge. He knows all things.
Jeremiah 1:4-AV Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, Jeremiah 1:5-AV Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, [and] I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.
What can mortal man prove to God who knows us even before we leave our father sperm canal?
HUSH, HUSH ATTITUDE.
Genesis 4:25-AV And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth. For God, [said she], hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.
Genesis 4:17-AV And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare Enoch: and he builded a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son, Enoch.
Genesis 19:5-AV And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where [are] the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.
Judges 19:22-AV [Now] as they were making their hearts merry, behold, the men of the city, certain sons of Belial, beset the house round about, [and] beat at the door, and spake to the master of the house, the old man, saying, Bring forth the man that came into thine house, that we may know him.
SEX IS GOD’S WILL FOR HUMANITY AND ALL LIVING CREATURE.
1 for reproductive reason.
2 For pleasure between the man and his wife. 1 Timothy 5:14-AV I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully. 1 Timothy 5:15-AV For some are already turned aside after Satan.
Genesis 38:6-10 (KJV) And Judah took a wife for Er his firstborn, whose name was Tamar. [7] And Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the Lord; and the Lord slew him. [8] And Judah said unto Onan, Go in unto thy brother's wife, and marry her, and raise up seed to thy brother. [9] And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it came to pass, when he went in unto his brother's wife, that he spilled it on the ground, lest that he should give seed to his brother. [10] And the thing, which he did, displeased the Lord: wherefore he slew him also.
However. God has to put some kind of regulation on sex, because humanities tend to drag down and drag out a thing down to their level and miss use it.
CELIBACY IS A SPECIAL CALLING.
Matthew 19:12-AV For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from [their] mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive [it], let him receive [it].
1 Corinthians 9:5-AV Have we not power to lead about a sister, a wife, as well as other apostles, and [as] the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas? 1 Corinthians 9:6-AV Or I only and Barnabas, have not we power to forbear working?
Jeremiah 16:1-AV The word of the LORD came also unto me, saying, Jeremiah 16:2-AV Thou shalt not take thee a wife, neither shalt thou have sons or daughters in this place.
The calling to remain unmarried is not the calling of everyone, only a special group of people is call to celibacy.
SEX WHEN CORRUPTED HAS SUDDENLY BECOME A DEATH TRAP.
Dr. Stephen T. Chang in his book" The Tao of Sex ology. Page 187. Say, “Everyone carries germs-their own kind of germs-on their body, especially in their orifices. Genitals in particular, being dark, warm, and wet, provide the ideal conditions for germ proliferation. When we have close contact with a person, we are exposed to their germ. Initially we are very susceptible to problems’ cause by their germs. But gradually, with prolonged exposure to that person, we will build up immunity against those germs, and we will not be bothered by them. If a person has close contact with a great number of sexual partners, it will be impossible for that person to tolerate so many different kinds of germs. Because the body simply cannot build up immunity that quickly, great suffering will result. One thing learned from all this research is that germs are capable of incorporating the genes of other germs into their own genetic library.")( (1) God has to regulate sex for the protection of his people from disease.
DIFFERENT KIND OF SEXUAL TRANSMITTED DISEASE.
FUNGUS.
HEPATITIS B.
SYPHILIS.
BY Dr. Stephen T. Chang in his book" The Tao of Sex ology. Page 215. This disease can blind the victim, or even rotten off sex organs.
VENEREAL WARTS.
Yeast infection. HERPES.
Chlamydia is a nasty infection, this gives the male an infection that look like Gomorrah, except it might not have any burning, and the color of the discharge might be a little different in color that of Gomorrah. When women have it, in its worst stage the person that she is with can smell it. Because it does not burn like Gomorrah, it can easily be ignored by some bodies who throw themselves away.
RECTAL GERMS.
Trichomoniasis
SEX URGES VERSUS CHRISTIANS BOASTERS.
It is not everyone can overcome sex urges, many Christians boastfully quoted what Paul say in Phil 4:13. Forgetting that Paul could do all things until he receive the thorn in the flesh.
Philip. 4:13 (KJV) I can do all things through Christ which strengthened me.
2 Cor. 12:7-9 (KJV) And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure. [8] For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me. [9] And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
MANY PEOPLE WILL NEVER OVERCOME THE DEEDS OF THE BODY IN A PRACTICAL SENSE.
The 4th and last New Testament prophecy in 2 Corinthians (2 Cor. 5:10). This refers to the judgment seat of Christ where, after the resurrection of the saints, we shall be judged for the things done in the body whether they are good or bad. Romans 14:10 and 1 Cor. 3:11-15.
But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
The judgment seat of Christ is in heaven, which mean these saints make it in. You see we make it in because of the imputed righteousness of Christ, his grace. Christ grace chip in to make up for us where we sin and come short.
2 Cor. 12:7-9 (KJV) And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure. [8] For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me. [9] And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
Ephes. 2:8-9 (KJV) For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: [9] Not of works, lest any man should boast.
1 John 1:8-10 (KJV) If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. [9] If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. [10] If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
Isaiah 64:6 (KJV) But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousness are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
Zech. 4:6-7 (KJV) Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the Lord unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts. [7] Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it.
LET US LOOK AT SOME PEOPLE WHO DID NOT OVERCOME THE SEX DRIVE IN THE BIBLE.
2 Samuel 11:2-9 (KJV) And it came to pass in an eveningtide, that David arose from off his bed, and walked upon the roof of the king's house: and from the roof he saw a woman washing herself; and the woman was very beautiful to look upon. [3] And David sent and enquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this Bath-sheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite? [4] And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her; for she was purified from her uncleanness: and she returned unto her house. [5] And the woman conceived, and sent and told David, and said, I am with child. [6] And David sent to Joab, saying, Send me Uriah the Hittite. And Joab sent Uriah to David. [7] And when Uriah was come unto him, David demanded of him how Joab did, and how the people did, and how the war prospered. [8] And David said to Uriah, Go down to thy house, and wash thy feet. And Uriah departed out of the king's house, and there followed him a mess of meat from the king. [9] But Uriah slept at the door of the king's house with all the servants of his lord, and went not down to his house.
SAMSON NEVER OVERCAME HIS AT ALL.
Judges 14:7 (KJV) And he went down, and talked with the woman; and she pleased Samson well.
JOSEPH OVERCAME THE SEX URGES.
PAUL SAY HE DID OVER CAME IT AND TOLD HOW HE DID IT.
It is important to know that the cast away here was not talking bout salvation. This has to do with the ministry, as being rejected are refuted from certain field or post of ministerial calling. Like a bishop who must only have one wife and are disqualified from that post if having more than one.
DO NOT TALK ABOUT THE SINS OF OTHERS LIKE YOU COULD NEVER DO THAT.
The Bible told us how to overcome the sex sin
1Co 7:1 Now, getting down to the questions you asked in your letter to me. First, Is it a good thing to have sexual relations? 1Co 7:2 Certainly--but only within a certain context. It is good for a man to have a wife, and for a woman to have a husband. Sexual drives are strong, but marriage is strong enough to contain them and provide for a balanced and fulfilling sexual life in a world of sexual disorder.
1Co 7:3 The marriage bed must be a place of mutuality--the husband seeking to satisfy his wife, the wife seeking to satisfy her husband. 1Co 7:4 Marriage is not a place to "stand up for your rights." Marriage is a decision to serve the other, whether in bed or out. 1Co 7:5 Abstaining from sex is permissible for a period of time if you both agree to it, and if it is for the purposes of prayer and fasting--but only for such times. Then come back together again. Satan has an ingenious way of tempting us when we least expect it.
