  • Pornography & Repentance

    If the definition is too specific, then loopholes will be looked for and found. Particularly, if we limit pornography to being viewed images, then we exclude erotic fiction, which is generally more consumed by woman than men. Indeed, during our time in college, my wife was often dismissed whenever she warned other young women that their obsession with romances, whether in film or in book, was creating unhealthy expectations and problematic desires for their future marriages.

  • The Fight for Purity

    We should not avoid entirely the person who's repenting of sin. Instead, believers with a spirit of compassion should bear each other's burdens and so fulfilled the law of Christ. That ought to be that that should be how we interact.

    Again, the Christian who is making war against their same-sex attraction is going against everything that culture is spitting out at the moment. Everything around them portrays sexuality as the defining characteristic of a person, that who (or even what) you are attracted to is the most important aspect of your character. So for a person to fight against that cultural pull, he or she certainly needs a loving and engaged church community to support and encourage them.
