I just picked the book up yesterday. I have really been struggling with my sexual impulses. The first chapter and intro convicted me of how the life and thoughts that I have are so worldly and so indescent. Loving Christ should separate me from these things. My flesh has been winning and God's best cannot be present when that happens. I look at what I have been doing and I think "Do you really have faith, do you really believe?" In the book, the author writes "It's wrong, I admitted, but it's such a small thing. It was a far cry from Playboy, I told myself". How many times have I justified it. It is wrong and I need to cut it out totally.
"Have mercy on me, O God,
according to your unfailing love;
according to your great compassion
blot out my transgressions......
Restore to me the joy of your salvation
and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me.
Then I will teach transgressors your ways
and sinners will turn back to you." Psalm 51:1, 12-13
"But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity" Ephesians 5:3
