ADULTERY 4: IT CAN KEEP YOU OUT OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD

(Message by Tanny Keng)

1. Adultery 

a) These are depressing statistics in America, to say the least:

i) 57% of American men and 54% of American women admit to committing infidelity in any relationship they have been in.  

ii) 53% of American marriages end in divorce and that 74% of men and 68% of women says they would have an affair if they knew they would never be caught. 

b) What does the Bible say about Adultery?

2. Adultery Can Keep You Out Of The Kingdom Of God


a) In 1 Corinthians 6:9-10, the apostle Paul lists some sins that, if continued in without confession and repentance, will prevent the practitioner from entering God’s kingdom, “Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God?  Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God”. 

b) Included in this list is the sin of adultery.  This further emphasizes how serious God views this sin. He knew the devastating effects adultery has on individuals and families and He wanted to protect us from that heartbreak.  He still feels the same today. 


The End ...
