1. Forgiveness isn't for the sake of the offender but for the blessings of the offended.
2. The devil has filled the air with many spirit-draining social media contents, hence more reason why we must stand on God's word.
3. We must not be ignorant of this truth; Our DISCOVERY, REALIZATION and MOTIVATION is from the power of God's word that has been exposed to us and not from SELF.
5. We must always glorify Christ and make Him known to the world in all of our success stories rather than sharing principles and theories that the contemporary world is only interested in knowing. #abattoir @dbamiloye @jay_mikee

From a gentleman's point of view, the unregenerate mind believes that being in a relationship has a LOT to do with sexual intimacy and for some, it's the best thing you can benefit.
It's not our fault that we're wired to think this way but the society has portrayed it with respect to cultural diversity and moral upbringing.
Ever wondered why your resistance to sexual immorality is weak and your strength of conviction is dull??

A SUCCINCT THREAD!!
The reality of indwelling sin and the deceit of lust is why GUARDRAILS is so important.
To fight and avoid sexual sin, this principle helps us connect our convictions to our actions.
Can guardrails stop you from sinning? No, but they can save you from destruction if you so desire.
David took Uriah's wife and had him killed; His own troubles began?
Yes, truly, he repented but he lost the child from the product of his Adultery with Bathsheba!
His son Ammon raped his sister Tamar!
Sacrilege in the household of a King!
Ammon was also murdered by his own brother Absalom
What about when the king David had to flee into the woods because of the rebellion and conspiracy of his precious son, Absalom to overthrow him?
Yet, Absalom was gruesomely killed on the throne for David to return to the palace!
What happened to Lot and his daughters after Sodom's destruction?
Why did he have sex with them?
(A Succinct Thread)
Foremost, It is importance to remember that God considered Lot a righteous man.
(2 Peter 2: 4 -9).
It was, without a doubt, incredibly difficult for someone like Lot to be obedient to God in a city wholly given over to pursuing its lusts.
Secondly, the toxicity of Sodom and Gomorrah isn't a reason for us to think that Lot's daughters are not pure virgins. Environmental influence isn't an excuse to either embrace or shun immorality.
If you're loosed, you can travel several kilometres just to satisfy your lust.
Your past sexual frailties during the times of your ignorance does not disqualify you from speaking against impurity. No, it doesn't.
Your previous struggles with illicit drugs should not stop you from advocating against drug addiction either.
It's honourable if you've got no sexual experience. You will be a light and a model worthy of emulation to those who're relying on God's grace to walk through the same path.
On the contrary, It's comforting to have experienced the consequences of sexual impurity and the healing liberation from such acts.
Your story will minister hope, strength and liberation faster and speak more clearly to the struggles of others than that of the unblemished.
