DAILY READINGS: Judges 17-18; Isaiah 36 to 37:7; 1 Corinthians 14
I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of
God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew fi rst,
and also to the Greek. Romans 1:16
According to the rest of Romans 1, when men turn away from the
true and living God, one of the things they turn themselves over to
is evil, sexual passions. These things are a perversion of what God
intended in the normal relationship of a man and woman in marriage.
Such a relationship produces children, loyalty and happiness.
Beware of pornography and fi lms which will corrupt your thinking
and cause one to become obsessed with sexual immorality. It is destructive.
Keep yourself pure. —Donald Norbie
So let our lips and lives express, the holy Gospel we profess;
So let our works and virtues shine, to prove the doctrine all divine. —Watts
