Jared, what some on this tread have tried to express to you is that God by His goodness and mercy and because of His love for you will accept you and forgive you of all sin. That does not mean that sin is not destructive and that we should continue in sin. In fact if one "really" believes in Gods love, if one really has the grace of God? They will have the understanding and strength to overcome the sin that has kept them bound. In the New Covenant we as believers are justified by our faith in Christ and are made the temple of the Holy Spirit. Again I make the point that you very much need to know that The Holy Spirit dwells within you. One of the few demands made upon the New Covenant believer, is that we do not defile our bodies through sexual sins. God has ordained that in marriage between one man and one woman, His Will is kept and honored. Any who transgress this which God has ordained brings judgment upon themselves and even the destruction of their own flesh. The Holy Spirit that lives within the body of the believer will not allow the body to be defiled in this manner. Always walk before the Lord in a good conscience and keep holy your body and you will do well.
Ac 15:28 For it seemed good to the Holy Ghost, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things;
29 That ye abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well.
