s in the world who also help him. In the schools
today your teachers are taught how to change your thinking. They will
slowly but surely work on you day by day to do so. Beware of this. Don't
let anyone destroy your faith in God, in the Bible, nor in what it
teaches as being the Eternal Word of God. Guard this faith and live by
it. It means your eternal destiny. Whether anyone says God's Word is
true or false, it will still be true. Men's thoughts and ideas will
never change God's Word.

The next sin is uncleanness. The dictionary says that _uncleanness_
means "morally impure, foul, filthy, unchaste and obscene." The Bible
says, "God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness." I
Thess. 4:7. This means that we are to keep ourselves pure in thought,
word, and deed. Keep a rebuke in your heart against dirty jokes and
those things that lead to impurity. The Bible says, "Unto the pure all
things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is
nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled." Titus
1:15. Homosexuality would come under this sin. The Bible plainly
condemns this sin. In Romans we read about the corrupt man and it says,
"God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own
hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:... 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: 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
[fit]. 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; being filled with all unrighteousness." Romans 1:24-28. It
is very plain that homosexuality is a terrible sin. God has a purpose
for the use of each member of our bodies and it is not to be used in
sinful ways. Sex is for a purpose and that is to bring children into the
world and for the purpose of love-making between married couples. But it
is not to be abused and temperance is to be used. Temperance is one of
the fruits of the Spirit. (Gal. 5:23). Each member is to be used for the
purpose that God has intended. Remember this and the Lord will give you
understanding.
