Lazaroo – Friday, May 25, 2012

May 25, 2012 I Lazaroo.

 

Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, in deep reverence for the thrilling, freedom-giving guidance of God:

“Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding towns gave themselves up to sexual immorality and perversion.”
(Jude 1:7)

They’re not exactly the same, are they, Jesus? –

“Sexual immorality” is experiencing Your amazing gift of sex –
or fantasizing having sex –

with someone of the opposite sex
to whom I am not married.

“Perversion” goes one step farther.

It twists Your miracle of sex into something ugly

plunging the people You’ve created in Your image

into depravity:

sex with an animal
sex with someone of the same sex
sex worship.

You don’t forbid these practices to rob me of pleasure

but to protect me from their hidden consequences
to ensure my highest pleasure.

Why would I ever sin sexually?

My opposite sex spouse and I can do anything we wish

so long as it harms neither of us
and involves no one else.

A world of limitless possibilities.

Wow.

Clean zing.
