Joe's Celibacy Journal
Entry 2:
So here I am declaring to the world that I'm celibate. To be perfectly honest; this is the real celibacy and not the one I've been living. Look hands down I'm a Christian, I'm saved, and I love God, but I have messed up. I know God has forgiven me and I'm no longer ashamed, but the first reason why I've been celibate for the past two years hasn't been by choice. I haven't been a relationship and so therefore no sex.But as I've been growing in Christ and truly trying to make the decision to live for Him and not pretend. Joseph has made the true decision to flee fornication (sex before marriage). This is now a choice and not a matter of inconvenience. I want to find my good thing (wife), but I have to choose to live for Christ or live for the pleasures of this world.I'll talk a little bit more about this in later entries, but I just wanted to share some truth with you all.I Corinthians 10:8- Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them comitted, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.
I Corinthians 6:18- Flee Fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body, but he that comitteth fornication sinneth against his own body.I John 1:9- If we confess our sins; he is faith and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
