Why do you have so many questions pertaining to sex on your church website?

Question:

Why do you have so many questions pertaining to sex on your church website?  It is very inappropriate and perhaps you are forgetting the Bible verse that states there are certain things you shall not discuss in public because they are so shameful.

Answer:

"For this you know, that no fornicator, unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God. Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience. Therefore do not be partakers with them. For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth), finding out what is acceptable to the Lord. And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them. For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret. But all things that are exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light. Therefore He says: "Awake, you who sleep, Arise from the dead, And Christ will give you light"" (Ephesians 5:5-14).

Notice how you pull one statement from what Paul stated and reversed what Paul said to do. Yes, what people in today's world are involved in is shameful. But the way to deal with sin is to expose why it is wrong so that people realize what is wrong, why it is wrong, and how to change their ways.

The questions pertaining to sex on this site are there simply because people asked and I respond. They are posted so that others can also learn. The fact of the matter is that God teaches about sex and that teaching has become lost as people get caught up in sin. But it is just one small subject area that this website covers as I try to answer all questions that come my way. "But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear; having a good conscience, that when they defame you as evildoers, those who revile your good conduct in Christ may be ashamed" (I Peter 3:15-16).
