Abstinence Makes the Heart Grow Fonder

The last time we met as a Sunday School class (two weeks ago), we talked about the scripture found in 2 Corinthians 6:14-18. This passage of scripture starts with the words "Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers ..." and goes on to explain why Holy Ghost filled Christians shouldn't bind themselves together with unbelievers. This is a principle that applies to marriage, business partnerships and any relationship that requires a legally binding contract.

This week we will be dealing with another fruit of the flesh, fornication. Because of the variance in ages, we will only be dealing with the surface of this very heavy subject. It is important for young people to understand what God requires and the blessings involved if we submit ourselves to Him. And in this day and age where young people are believing that anything is good if it feels good, we desire them to know the Word of God and to apply the principles found within. We will be focusing on a deeper intimacy with God, emphasising that our relationship with Him comes out of our love for Him. And our love for God will have flow-on effects in our relationships with others.

If you have any concerns or questions, or anything you would like to discuss with us, please do not hesitate to come and talk to us.

God bless you,

Robin, Dave and Heather
