Hi Copper 25,
I really believe that much of the world is going down in the flames of sexual idolatry. I do not say that as a judge because I have gone to the Lord in prayer asking for answers on how we as believers can reach out to them in love with the truth.
I tell you all the truth, I do not lie......this is what happened to me one night as I believe that I received a vision from God concerning this very issue..........
Suddenly in the night I was awakened by the sensation of my right leg being grabbed and pulled over to the edge of the bed. My first thought was........Lord what do you want to tell me. Then suddenly I realized that I was being escorted by two women in super white long robes. Each one was holding an arm in a promenade like fashion. They led me to a bench and we sat down. When I looked straight ahead I saw a huge door that appeared to go into the ground. There was this tremendously scary feeling that came upon me that I knew that I had to enter that door. I arose and walked towards the door on my own. I knelt down and prayed to Jesus for help. Then I stood up and proceeded to open the door. The first thing I saw were lots of snakes slithering on the ground.......but I kept walking. As I looked straight ahead I saw a man who I recall was shirtless. He did not speak, but motioned for me to follow him up a tunnel. I followed for a little bit then we stopped. I began to tell him about Jesus. He stood there looking at me with a blank stare and had no real emotional response. Then I noticed that he was motioning for me to look over at something. I looked over and I noticed that there was a woman lying on the ground bare naked with an enticing look on her face as if to lure me in. I immediately knew what was happening........then the vision suddenly ended.
The next day as I reflected on the vision I was convinced that the vision provided as a warning to me. I was more convinced in my mind that there could very well be a connection between sexual sin and apostacy. I thank the Lord for the vision and I consider it a gift in that it gives me the impression that God desires to keep me from the evil ones ploys.
With love in Christ, Daniel

Genesis 19:26) But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt
Sodom was a place of corruption, so why by any means look back to destruction. This is what people are doing each and every time they turn to sin, submitting to it. Looking back and are petrified, stiff, and dead in sin, unable to move like Lot’s wife. Even a little glance or turning back to the sinful nature is harmful. The cost are real and the stakes are high, except the wage is your soul and sin is the death of it. “ The soul that sinneth, it shall die ”, “ what doth it profit a man if he gain the whole world, and yet he receive him not whom God hath ordained, and he lose his own soul, and he himself be a castaway?” Submitting to sin is like casting away your soul for a cheap thrill, temporal substance which will not last long, but only a short time and past away. My people, my fellow Christians, we must run for eternal substance, that which is pure, striding against sin and all appearance of iniquity. “ thou hatest all workers of iniquity ”, this is what God’s word says, again, “ God is angry with the wicked every day ”, again, “ but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth ”. God’s love is shown to only those who obey, and turn from the ways of sinfulness.
People saying God’s love is unconditional, they are lying and fooling their selves, and if they pass it on, are fooling others as well. 2 Timothy 3:13) But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.)) Many shall be deceived and those deceived shall deceive others. “ And shall begin to smite his fellow servants ”, this is what many are doing teaching doctrinal errors, like leniency on the avoidance of sin in one’s life or teach that one can be saved by saying I believe, but don’t realize that this only qualifies that person to potentially be a child of God, but by no means ensures nor guarantees their election into grace. This is the truth, stay away from sin because “ when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin when it is finished bringeth forth death ”, no in-between, no mid way, but we have to by the grace of God leave it behind us and not look back at it lest we become dead in it, dead in sin rather then dead to sin because life is short.
