Scripture Union Daily Guide 6 July 2024 Outline:

The word “defile” occurs about eight times in our passage. It means, “to make dirty/filthy or to pollute”. People defile themselves by making themselves dirty and unholy before God through sinful acts. What are some of the sexual relations that defile a person before God (vs.19-23)? Adultery/fornication, same sex relations and having sex with an animal are highly condemned by God and make a person unholy and unacceptable before Him. Notice how each is called.

 Adultery/fornication (v.20) – defilement  Same sex relation (v.22) – detestable
 Having sex with an animal (v.23) – perversion

Read vs.24-30 again. These detestable sins not only defile the individual involved, they also defile the land. They act and spread like cancer in the entire populace of the land. This calls for serious concern from all true believers. Sexual sins must not be condoned by any follower of Christ, even when and where it is legally allowed by law as we find in many nations of the world today.
