IMMORALITY BRINGS WRATH. Revelation 14:19-18:24.

Society mocks morals. A recent broadcast of the Grammy Awards featured lyrics so immoral you would be embarrassed if I discussed it. There are thousands more examples. The music and stories of our culture would argue sex has nothing to do with marriage, children, or the God who created it to illustrate oneness with His people. Instead, sex is considered meaning-less and consequence-free. Many artists promoting the immoral are also strongly pro-choice. Why? Because easy-access to abortion goes hand-in-hand with the all-too-common belief that sex does not involve family or God and is simply harmless and meaningless fun: it’s recreation, not procreation.

The Bible contradicts the notion of recreational sex outside of marriage.

Twice Revelation states clearly that “SEXUAL IMMORALITY BRINGS WRATH” 14:8,18:3. Don’t tolerate this sin in your life. GOD WON’T.

Instead, God will POUR OUT judgment on immorality, particularly in the End Times, comparing it to both Babylon the Great and a prostitute:

“Babylon the Great has fallen, who made the nations drink the wine of her sexual immorality, which brings wrath…. Grapes will be thrown into the winepress of God’s wrath and blood will flow as deep as the horses’ bridles for 180 miles… Hailstones weighing 100 pounds will fall from the sky… The kings became drunk on the prostitute’s immorality… and she became drunk on the blood of the saints [that’s us!]… The beast will make the prostitute desolate and naked, devour her flesh, and burn her up with fire… Babylon the Great is fallen! … Her sins are piled to heaven… Her plagues will come in one day, … In a single hour her fabulous wealth will be destroyed…. All this will happen because … the nations were deceived by her sorcery, and the blood of prophets and saints was found in her” Revelation 14:19-18:24.

Galatians 6:7 says, “Do not be deceived, God is not mocked. Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.” You harvest what you plant. PLANT GOOD THINGS IN YOUR LIFE.

Revelation 14 praises the pure: “These are the ones not defiled with women, for they have kept their virginity… They are blameless” vv.4-5.

I want God to call me ‘blameless,’ don’t you?

Dad's Daily Devotional began as text messages to my family. I wanted my teenagers to know their father was reading the Bible. But they were at school by then. Initially, I sent them a favorite verse or an insight based on what I read each day. That grew into drafting a devotional readng which I would send them via text. I work as an attorney and an adjunct professor, and recently wrote a book called HOW TO MAKE A'S.
