I believe in right and wrong. I believe that many things are black and white and that shades of gray are often temptations that distort the way and lead many people astray. I believe that the only way to get rid of guilt is to admit wrongdoing and not try to explain it away by saying that morality is nonbinary. Freedom from guilt comes from confession and forgiveness not from denial.

Perhaps it is good to think rationally about sexual activity instead of merely defining it by feelings and desires. When people say, “Love is love,” it seems like they are referring to sexuality and saying that all sex is equal. But that isn’t true. The primary purpose of sex is to keep the human race in existence. There is only one kind of sex that can do that–sex between a man and a woman.

To declare that your desires are definitive determinants is to say that you are nothing but a biological robot. You are so much more than that! (Are the modern “anything goes” views on sexuality working?)

To deny the binary is to cut anchor from self-evident reality and drift into confusion and chaos. It is to banish clarity and embrace confusion.

My pride is nothing to celebrate. It wants to imprison me in self-focus and throw away the key, but humility can set me free! To repent is to shift from relying on human pride and to begin to fully rely on the risen Jesus.

To repent is to do more than to apologize and say you’re sorry. It is to sincerely and humbly ask for forgiveness and to do everything you can to make things right with the person you have wronged and with God. It is to change your thinking and behavior so that you don’t repeat the same offense again.
