VALENTINE: CELEBRATION AND EXPLOSION OF IMMORALITY AND LUST OR COMMEMORATION AND EXPRESSION OF IMMORTAL LOVE?
VALENTINE: CELEBRATION AND EXPLOSION OF IMMORALITY AND LUST
OR
COMMEMORATION AND EXPRESSION OF IMMORTAL LOVE?
The world is again in a frenzied fit of heightened and hysterical preoccupation with preparations for the annual ritual and routine of Valentine day.
Motives are manifold and multifaceted:
*Expectation of sales patronage and cash-boom as gifts are increasingly sold;
*Experience of sinful pleasure and carnal-boost as guys and girls get involved in sexual sins;
*Expression of satanic pacts and covenant-bonding as generations get ignorantly 'initiated' and sold; and lots more.
The truth MUST be orchestrated to ALL and SUNDRY at this time.
(1) THE SINFUL SITUATION, THE VOGUE:
"Lift up thine eyes...thou hast polluted the land with thy whoredoms" (Jeremiah 3:2).
"My people...the spirit of whoredoms hath caused them to err" (Hosea 4:12).
"It is commonly reported that there is fornication among you" (I Corinthians 5:1).
The world (under demonic machinations, devilish manipulations and diabolical manoeuvres) has carved an image and created a so-called "ideal" of sex! It is now the fashionable thing and the fastidious trend to sleep around. It is the pervasive pattern and the prevalent practice and has well become the supreme obsession, bringing in its wake strong satanic possession through widespread preponderance of a world-wide perversion!
The deification of the "Sex-god" has taken its tragic toll on couples and families, clans and communities, colleges and corporate organisations, cities and countries, in fact, all of civilization!
There exists for the world, no more borders and boundaries, regimentation and regulations or restraints and resilient refusal as folly is now fun, perversion is pleasure, lust is love and nudity has become the norm! All forms of perversion thrive, all manners of abominations have become rampant and rife:
A-dultery,
B-estiality,
C-hild Molestation and Pederasty,
D-eviant and Devious Sex Trafficking,
E-vil Concupiscence, Inordinate Affection and all Lusts,
F-ornication,
G-roup Sex,
H-arlotry or Prostitution,
I-ncest,
J-ostling or Favour-Seeking Sex,
K-iss and Tell,
L-esbianism and Sodomy, the Gays,
M-asturbation and Self Pleasure,
N-octurnal Abominations and One Night Stands,
O-ffice Sex,
P-hone Sex,
Q-uick Stands and Party Sex,
R-itual or Idolatrous Sex,
S-ugar Daddy and Sugar Mummy Syndrome,
T-wosome, Threesome, Foursome, etc.
U-se of Sex Toys and Robots,
V-iolent or Forced Sex or Rape,
W-horedom and Sex Orgies,
X-rated Movies and Pornography,
Y-oke Induced, Blood-Covenanted Sex,
Z-ealots' False Religion Induced Intercourse, and lots more!
The annual observance of Valentine Day has become a day of demonic siege upon mankind through the pervasive, popularised and proliferated abominable acts of immorality associated with the day!
All true believers should wage "war" against this debasing, defiling, demeaning, demonic, destructive, devilish and damning propensities and practices. Our goal is to promote chastity, integrity, purity, sanctity and sanity. Let us intercede for God to intervene and lead these lost souls to the saving love and shining light of the Lord.
(2) THE SERMON ON AND SUMMON TO VIRTUE:
"Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication...they which commit such things are worthy of death" (Romans 1:29,32).
"...Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord: and the Lord for the body.
Flee fornication...he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body." (I Corinthians 6:13, 18).
"Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand." (I Corinthians 10:8).
"Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness...of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts." (Galatians 5:19,21,24).
"But fornication, and all uncleanness...let it not be once named among you as becometh saints." (Ephesians 5:3).
In essence:
A---"...and all uncleanness...let it not be once named among you" (Ephesians 5:3).
B---"Be not ye therefore partakers with them." (Ephesians 5:7).
C---"...consent thou not" (Proverbs 1:10).
D---"Deliver thyself as a roe from the hand of the hunter, and as a bird from the hand of the fowler." (Proverbs 6:5).
E---"...Escape for thy life" (Genesis 19:17).
F---"Flee fornication" (I Corinthians 6:18).
G---"...glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's." (I Corinthians 6:20).
(3) THE SCRIPTURAL SUMMARY ON VALENTINE:
"I have chosen the way of truth; thy judgements have I laid before me." (Psalm 119:30).
"Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season." (Hebrews 11:25).
So, C--H--O--O--S--E:
*V--IRTUE not VICE, VIRGINITY IS STILL IN VOGUE,
*A--BSTINENCE FROM IMMORALITY not ABOMINABLE INVOLVEMENT,
*L--OVE not LUST,
*E--NDORSEMENT OF SANCTITY not ENGAGEMENT IN SIN,
*N--OBILITY IN DECORUM not NUDITY IN DRESSING,
*T--RIUMPH IN FAITHFULNESS not THE THRILLS OF THE FLESH,
*I--NTEGRITY not INIQUITY,
*N--EWNESS OF LIFE IN CHRIST not NAUGHITINESS OF LUST AND CARNALITY,
*E--VENTUAL REJOICING AFTER DECENCY AND DISCIPLINE not EPHEMERAL REGRET AND ETERNAL RUIN AFTER DEFILEMENT, DEPRAVITY AND DISOBEDIENCE.
