The more we love sins, the more hatred and denial of Christ. Jesus was connecting adultery and general sins with DENYING HIM and His Words with the generation of that time (over 2000 years ago); in a sense, our generation is more adulterous and generally sinful. I understand that people now commit sexual sins together "online": not even sure that was possible 100 years ago.

The love of Sexual Sins (maybe in secret) and others automatically put out the love of Christ and his words in ones heart. Just yesterday, I wanted to take a quick look at an interesting blog or something with a clean title, as I clicked, hardly had I scrolled down a bit when I realized that a major part of the page was full of sickening porn content. Surely, I had to back off at lighting speed: no negotiations. Things like these and many others are what battle ones fear and love of God and his words in daily life.


God bless.

Not talking about sexual sins.. But pleasure with the world more than heavenly. Pleasure is expressed as fornicating with the world (rev 18) i.e those who love the world is an enmity with God..

We are in this world, but not of this world for we are heirs of Salvation in Christ Jesus (matt 6:33). Our mortal works can't complete us, though we strive positively but we are totally complete and secure in Him by His endless Love, baptism, stripes, enduring punishment, death, blood, and resurrection.

By this, we recognise the powerful influence of His love just like the prostitute did hence her expensive oil perfume, tears, glorious hair and embrace on Him, we then move with a great joy, boldness, and motivation to preach Him and His gospel of love, grace, faith and eternal life.. But the unsaved who pretend to be Christians acts opposite, hence they are shy, cold, timid, and fearful.
