Gen 2:18-25 "It is not good that man should be alone."

Genesis 2:18, 20b-24 " And the Lord God said, "It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him....But for Adam there was not found a helper comparable to him. And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place. Then the rib which the Lord God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man. And Adam said, "This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; She shall be called Woman, Because she was taken out of Man." Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh."

Friends, these verses can solve most of the suffering in our world. For I believe at the root of all our problems lies pornography and the decimation of the family unit. Let explain by being transparent for a moment. There are times when I should not be on the computer. There were times in my past that I shouldn't of been on the computer at all. Being in a hotel room by myself is not the best situation for me to be in. Business trips can be torturous. I'm just speaking straight from the heart, I'm human, and my flesh is weak. That weakness came from my past when I allowed certain temptations into my life, the devil got a foothold, and to this day I still battle the lust of flesh. Men, pornography kills. It kills relationships, it kills jobs, it kills your body, and it especially kills marriages . Men, "it is not good that man should be alone".

Friends, marriage was instituted by God from the beginning, we need a partner of the opposite sex, a helpmate. It's part of our genetics, deep down we crave it. No animal will do and no human of the same sex can fulfill that void which exists in our soul. Homosexuality is not normal, was never intended from the start, and is not genetic. It's a sin, meaning it goes against God's wishes for mankind. The sin of homosexuality is no worse than the sin of lying, stealing, or gossiping. James 2:10 says "For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he is guilty of all." Please don't think me judgmental, I say this only as a warning to me foremost, flee anything that has to do with sexual immorality, it's never too late, it wants to destroy everything you hold dear in life, and it will. Find someone you trust and ask for help. Prayer is vital for strength to withstand the temptations, and reading the bible on a daily basis gives us the weapon we need to fight the enemy when he says, "come on, one peak won't hurt, no body is watching". "Abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul." 1 Peter 2:11 See also Matthew 5:28, 1 Corinthians 6:15-20
