Today the self appointed wise men/women have declared that GOD is irrelevant therefore his words are also meaningless.
In doing this they have declared they are free from all restraints that any of HIS commandments may have placed upon them. Things like loving GOD, stealing, even murders are considered restraints, and are to be thrown off in this enlighten society.
University of Missouri researcher Tyler Jamison says, that most of her college friends were “shacking up,” but had not formally moved in together. Instead, they spent three or more nights together during the week and still kept their own places. Jamison believes stay-over relationships represent a general trend that young people want to delay permanent relationships because they want to finish their education and pursue other goals.
The time when people did that which was right in their own eyes has returned with great approval among those who consider themselves wise.
While it is almost unbelievable that those who claim to be Christians are numbered with these people it may be a fact of life.
When a Christian violates the word of GOD it is a declaration of their independence from the restraint HIS word places upon them and the irrelevancy of GOD in their lives sets in.
Sexual immorality by Christians is sometimes validated by future intent; “We're going to get married” or we have a spiritual marriage.
Not that I wish to offend anyone but perhaps looking at what GOD actually said might be in order.
Galatians 5:19-21 Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
Leviticus 18:22 You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination.
Leviticus 20:13 If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination.
Deuteronomy 27:22-23 ‘Cursed is the one who lies with his sister, the daughter of his father or the daughter of his mother. ‘Cursed is the one who lies with his mother-in-law.’
Proverbs 6:32 Whoever commits adultery with a woman lacks understanding; He who does so destroys his own soul.
Of course for the one who considers GOD being irrelevant these words mean nothing. But one thing we can be sure of, “The road to Hades is filled with those who count GOD as being irrelevant.”
