\nis God\u2019s will\u00a0for you<\/i>: set yourselves apart and live holy lives;
\navoid\u00a0polluting yourselves with<\/i>\u00a0sexual defilement.\u00a04\u00a0<\/sup><\/b>Learn
\nhow to take charge over your own body, maintaining purity and honor.<\/p>\n
\nand desire for wealth. For the majority, sex tends to be a driving factor,
\nespecially as we develop into men. The drive to reproduce is natural and the
\nfact that it\u2019s pleasurable only compounds the problem. Paul specifically
\ntackles this desire with the men of Thessalonica.<\/p>\n
\ncontrol your attention; sex overpowers the will to remain pure. Follow me here,
\nignoring God is one thing money does, but you get into sexual sins and that
\ndrive will lead down a path of destruction. Sex destroys our relationships on
\nearth since it becomes more about using people than helping them. Sure in
\nextreme cases greed does this but the majority of people remain ethical, just
\nnot connected.<\/p>\n
\nthey override the voice telling them what is moral. In addition it violates
\nGod\u2019s plan and laws. \u201cSexual defilement\u201d is not avoiding sex, but rather what
\nis considered loose living. I know more people whose marriages have crumbled,
\nwhose bodies now have incurable diseases and often are driven to suicide that I
\ncare to. I pray that every man thinks before getting sucked into sexual
\nimmorality including porn. All this will lead to problems in the future if not
\naddresses leaving you with a hollow life. God is not making rules to ruin our
\nlives but rather to make the \u201cfull\u201d and fun.<\/p>\n
\nand sisters, we strongly advise you to scold the rebels\u00a0who devote
\ntheir lives to wreaking havoc,<\/i>\u00a0to encourage the downcast, to help
\nthe\u00a0sick and<\/i>\u00a0weak, and to be patient with all of them.\u00a015\u00a0<\/sup><\/b>Make
\nsure no one returns evil for evil, but always pursue what is good as it affects
\none another\u00a0in the church<\/i>\u00a0but also all people.\u00a016\u00a0<\/sup><\/b>Celebrate
\nalways,\u00a017\u00a0<\/sup><\/b>pray constantly, and\u00a018\u00a0<\/sup><\/b>give
\nthanks\u00a0to God<\/i>\u00a0no matter what circumstances you find yourself
\nin. (This is God\u2019s will for all of you in Jesus the Anointed.)\u00a019\u00a0<\/sup><\/b>Don\u2019t
\nsuppress the Spirit.\u00a020\u00a0<\/sup><\/b>Don\u2019t downplay
\nprophecies.\u00a021\u00a0<\/sup><\/b>Take a close look at everything, test
\nit,<\/i>\u00a0then cling to what is good.\u00a022\u00a0<\/sup><\/b>Put
\naway every form of evil.<\/p>\n
\nneed! Protect and uplift your community! Celebrate! Pray! Keep away from evil!
\nAnd in this all make sure you test everything to ensure it is true to God\u2019s
\nword. Don\u2019t just take the word of the preacher, but rather understand fully
\nwhat he is saying by diving into the Bible!<\/p>\n
