I like my sexual immorality and lifestyle just the way it is.

God's Rules on Sexuality

God is the Creator. God sets the standard for the design He created.  God created you out of unselfish love.  His rules are purposed for your health, safety, immense gratification and for growing closer to Him in a deep and abiding relationship.  As always, God gives you free will to do as You choose. You may choose to live in His Love, or out of His protection. God never forces anyone to love Him, for else it is not love, for it is not freely given. 

         " 'No one is to approach any close relative to have sexual relations. I am the LORD .    " 'Do not dishonor your father by having sexual relations with your mother. She is your mother; do not have relations with her. " 'Do not have sexual relations with your father's wife; that would dishonor your father. " 'Do not have sexual relations with your sister, either your father's daughter or your mother's daughter, whether she was born in the same home or elsewhere. " 'Do not have sexual relations with your son's daughter or your daughter's daughter; that would dishonor you. " 'Do not have sexual relations with the daughter of your father's wife, born to your father; she is your sister. " 'Do not have sexual relations with your father's sister; she is your father's close relative. " 'Do not have sexual relations with your mother's sister, because she is your mother's close relative.
        " 'Do not dishonor your father's brother by approaching his wife to have sexual relations; she is your aunt. " 'Do not have sexual relations with your daughter-in-law. She is your son's wife; do not have relations with her. " 'Do not have sexual relations with your brother's wife; that would dishonor your brother. " 'Do not have sexual relations with both a woman and her daughter. Do not have sexual relations with either her son's daughter or her daughter's daughter; they are her close relatives. That is wickedness. " 'Do not take your wife's sister as a rival wife and have sexual relations with her while your wife is living. " 'Do not approach a woman to have sexual relations during the uncleanness of her monthly period.

" 'Do not have sexual relations with your neighbor's wife and defile yourself with her. Lev 18: 6-20, 23

" 'Do not have sexual relations with an animal and defile yourself with it. A woman must not present herself to an animal to have sexual relations with it; that is a perversion. " 'If a man has sexual relations with an animal, he must be put to death, and you must kill the animal. Lev 18:23 "Anyone who has sexual relations with an animal must be put to death. Ex 22:19

" 'If a woman approaches an animal to have sexual relations with it, kill both the woman and the animal. They must be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads. " 'If a man marries his sister, the daughter of either his father or his mother, and they have sexual relations, it is a disgrace. They must be cut off before the eyes of their people. He has dishonored his sister and will be held responsible.      " 'Do not have sexual relations with the sister of either your mother or your father, for that would dishonor a close relative; both of you would be held responsible. Lev 20:15-17,19

"Cursed is the man who has sexual relations with any animal." Then all the people shall say, "Amen!" Deut 27:21

Who removes curses? -- Only the blood of Jesus Christ.   Come to Me, Give Me your troubles, You can not trust Man's heart

I like my sexual immorality and lifestyle just the way it is.

"You are a child of the devil and an enemy of everything that is right! You are full of all kinds of deceit and trickery. Will you never stop perverting the right ways of the Lord? Acts 13:10

for the LORD detests a perverse man but takes the upright into his confidence.
Prov 3:32
Put away perversity from your mouth; keep corrupt talk far from your lips. Prov 4:24
To fear the LORD is to hate evil; I hate pride and arrogance, evil behavior and perverse speech. Prov 8:13

The mouth of the righteous brings forth wisdom, but a perverse tongue will be cut out. Prov 10:31
The lips of the righteous know what is fitting, but the mouth of the wicked only what is perverse. Prov 10:32

The LORD detests men of perverse heart but he delights in those whose ways are blameless. Prov 11:20

A perverse man stirs up dissension, and a gossip separates close friends. Prov 16:28

He who winks with his eye is plotting perversity; he who purses his lips is bent on evil. Prov 16:30
A man of perverse heart does not prosper; he whose tongue is deceitful falls into trouble. Prov 17:20  He will die in his sins if he does not turn to God.  Better a poor man whose walk is blameless than a rich man whose ways are perverse. Prov 28:6

A cry is heard on the barren heights, the weeping and pleading of the people of Israel, because they have perverted their ways and have forgotten the LORD their God. Jer 3:21

Men of perverse heart shall be far from me; I will have nothing to do with evil. Ps 101:4

"You are a child of the devil and an enemy of everything that is right! You are full of all kinds of deceit and trickery. Will you never stop perverting the right ways of the Lord? Acts 13:10

Why is there sexual perversion?

Because since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse. Each person can see the order and care with which each creature has been made and cared for. So each person knows God is real and exists, but if they neither glorified him as God nor give thanks to Him, their thinking becomes futile and their foolish hearts become darkened. Therefore God gave people over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 

        God does not force us to love Him, He does give us free will. If we choose to go away from Him, He will not force us not to go, however, we will suffer the consequences of our rebellion against honoring our Creator. Being drawn deeper and deeper into sin is a natural progression from looking down instead of up to God most of the time. There is only one way to get out of any sin, no matter how deep, call out to Jesus Christ the Lord Who has made the Only Way  for you to repent and be Righteous to God.

God's Word in detail of WHY there is perversion - Romans 1:18-32

The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness, since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--His eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.
     
   For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.
        
Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator--who is forever praised. Amen.

Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.

Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, He gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless. Although they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them. Rom 1:18-32

God says to you who live a perverted lifestyle, condone it, agree with it in any form, or have never repented from it:

"You are a child of the devil and an enemy of everything that is right! You are full of all kinds of deceit and trickery. Will you never stop perverting the right ways of the Lord? Acts 13:10 

I want to stop perverting the right ways of the Lord, show me HOW, PRAY

Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding towns gave themselves up to sexual immorality and perversion. They serve as an example of those who suffer the punishment of eternal fire.  Jude 1:7

If this is so… how is there any hope for me? I will be totally crushed!  If God is set against me, and turning me perverted since I reject Him, how can I ever turn to Him?                 By His provision, by the way He made for you to come to Him. By His Only begotten Son the Lord Jesus Christ. This is what God says to you, Come to Me, I have loved you with an Everlasting LoveRepent and cast your troubles on Me so I may give you Eternal Life .

Wisdom will save you from the ways of wicked men, from men whose words are perverse, who leave the straight paths to walk in dark ways, who delight in doing wrong and rejoice in the perverseness of evil, whose paths are crooked and who are devious in their ways.        It will save you also from the adulteress, from the wayward wife with her seductive words, who has left the partner of her youth and ignored the covenant she made before God. For her house leads down to death and her paths to the spirits of the dead. None who go to her return or attain the paths of life.

Thus you will walk in the ways of good men and keep to the paths of the righteous. For the upright will live in the land, and the blameless will remain in it; but the wicked will be cut off from the land, and the unfaithful will be torn from it. Prov 2:12-22

Wisdom will save you from the ways of wicked men, from men whose words are perverse. Prov 2:12
