 verse 2 of chapter 13 that he was sick over his sister for she was a virgin and it was Improper improper means it was not right for Amnon to date or be with his sister Well for most of us like duh, dude. He's half sister. You're crazy. You would and she's 15 for crying out loud In those days things were a little bit different in Leviticus. It says that God prohibited Israel For people to date Mary within their family. So God prohibited like step sister step brothers They couldn't do that. So what do you do? When you have a crush on somebody and God's word says no, I know you probably don't have this problem But I'm pretty sure you've had a crush on somebody that God's word is very clear Not good Well, your parents told you not good or somebody else doesn't this is not good for you They're not a believer for example, or maybe they're the same sex or or something else, but you have strong feelings What do you do now if you're not a believer if you're not a follower of Jesus Christ, what do you do? Well, you do nothing you let the feelings take control Why because in Christians God is love, but if you're not a Christian love is God What love wants love gets There are people applying for a marriage license with the horse in the United States There is a person that's applying for a marriage license with his laptop This is real can Google it You know why because they say well if a man can marry a man because of love Why can't I marry a horse because of love and who are you to judge? Why anytime you make love at God we're gonna have a twisted society? Because anything you love becomes legal love becomes the moral standard My God is love, but love is not God Can somebody say a man and so what I want you to see here as a believer Now if you're not a believer for example, and you know you're attracted to the same sex or you you know honestly You can do whatever you want. The reason why is because you are your own God So whatever you come up with and you usually come up with rules as you go Whatever you come up with honestly, I stand aside and I will not judge you why I don't judge fish for swimming and fish Fish for swimming birds for flying men for walking on the ground and not on judge sinners for sinning It's who they are We don't judge But if you are a believer who's submitted and whose God is not you But the one who lives in heaven Who's savior is not you, but how one who died on a cross Then you have to submit your biology to your theology your sexuality to your spirituality Your feelings to your faith your chemistry to your Christ Why Because you have a God and he is your savior Maybe some of you're saying well, this is a good moment. I want to switch the camps. I don't want to be a Christian I don't want to tell God to tell me what to do Remember if you make yourself a God you also have to be your savior Good luck Most of you realize by the time you get 30 you're a terrible God and when you die you realize you're a horrible savior You because you can't save yourself don't try to control your life See the best thing of us as Christians we understand is this is the yes It's sometimes our flesh wants to do certain things and when we submit to God, you know It maybe brings a little pain to our flesh, but we know that God is good What he wants is good we we mean my wife we have a dog and They done a study and they said that dogs have 300 million All factory receptors we have six million So dogs the brain in the dogs The part of the brain that analyzes the smell is 40 times bigger than in my brain So the smell part in the brain in the dog is 40 times bigger than mine and they have 300 Receptors 300 million receptors where I have only six million so you can imagine one thing when a dog comes in He smells things on the level. I will never ever be able to comprehend So because of that he is drawn to things Based on his senses and his smell for example our dog He doesn't differentiate between underwars and sandwiches He doesn't he doesn't differentiate between pork and between his food I remember one time they made wafla for a previous intership They made wafla to sell for the mission trip and so left the wafla on the kitchen table and the dog during the night went in and he marked All the stacks of wafla on every single stack. Don't worry. You guys already ate them. It's been about seven months I'm just kidding. We didn't sell those We did not sell those relax He marked all of them now it tasted good It smelled good and then Saul woke up and Jacko was dead He laid there. He couldn't move He she thought he died because of all the heat see he doesn't understand a lot of times on Mondays is when Jacko doesn't eat He lies sick and he looks dead. Why because on Sunday when we take him to my parents house He eats from our table. He doesn't control. He he lets his feelings He lets his urge and his his senses tell him what to eat and then he pays for it on Monday Therefore he has people that care for him and they put a leash on him and the least that we have on him It's not because we hate him. We love that sucker The least we have on him. It's not because we want to kill him It's not because we want him not to have fun. It's that because we know if we don't control those urges He will kill himself See your theology is a leash on your biology put it on Control yourself Control your passions or they will destroy your life If you let your sexuality run rampant, you will kill your spiritual life You will kill your financial life. You will kill your physical life You will get things you don't want in your life because you have to allow your spirituality put a leash on your sexuality
