A faithful man will abound with blessings.
Proverbs 28:20
We are living in an era that attempts to stretch grace to
heretical extremes. I see it and hear it virtually every week of my life.
So allow me to say this very straight:
The greatest gift you can give to your marriage partner is
your purity, your fidelity. The greatest character trait you can provide your
spouse and your family is moral and ethical self-control.
Stand firm, my friend. Refuse to yield [to temptation].
Deceptive baits are set out about us each day, and they
don't all come from individuals. Some of them come from a cable television
channel or the Internet or a magazine or peer pressure at school or colleagues
at work. . . .
You'll feel like a prude, the only one around who's not
yielding. Don't be deceived by the persuasion no matter how beautiful and
appealing the words may sound. It is a lie. Remember, it is all a lie.
