Matthew 7
14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

There are many doors to destruction.
I Corinthians 6:9-10 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate (homosexuals), nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

When a person dies, I often think, "And what NOW?"
Those who hate "the Word" often call the Bible legalistic.
They think they should be free to do that which they want to do.
This is one of the many gates to destruction.
The Word is the way of life and "few" there be that find it.

God once said to me: "Many want to be free to sin."
"Few want to be free from sin."
Following "the Word" makes us free from sin.
The Word says:
Concerning fornication:
💥 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body. (I Cor. 6:18)
💥 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith HE (The Word), shall be one flesh. (I Cor. 6:16) At the time of sexual intercourse, the two are made one even when you have sex with a prostitute.
Concerning divorce and remarriage:
💥 But I (the Word) say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery. (Mt. 5:32)
* The man who divorces "a faithful wife", causes her to commit adultery if she remarries.
* The man who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
💥 And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband: But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife. (I Cor. 7:10-11) This is a commandment of the Lord. The divorced woman has 2 choices: remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband
💥 The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord. (I Cor. 7:39)
💥 For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband. 3 So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man. (Romans 7:2-3)
* The only time a married woman is free to remarry is if her husband dies. Otherwise she will commit adultery and the man who marries her, as a divorced woman, will commit adultery.
💥 And HE (the Word) saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her.
12 And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery. (Mark 10:11-12) And the man who marries the divorced woman commits adultery. (Mt. 5:32)
12 And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery. (Mark 10:11-12) And the man who marries the divorced woman commits adultery. (Mt. 5:32)

Concerning homosexuals & lesbians:
Romans 1
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
They were not born homosexual or lesbian, but the Word says God gave them over to these "vile affections".
The Word says: But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. (Mk.10:6)

Concerning abortion:
2 Timothy 3
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
Without natural affections: Mothers killing their own babies. Abortion ... and homosexuals & lesbians.
