Ten years ago, God helped me to write and published the book; 'Sexual Purity in Leadership'. Within these ten years, God has deemed it fit to use the thousands of copies in circulation (printed, audio and online) to bless countless millions of people. In a particular conference we held, a very popular preacher lifted up a copy of the book and declared that God has used it to save him from immorality a number of times!
I had thought of updating, revising and adding some chapters to the book to mark its 10th year, but I discovered that the inspiration, materials and stories I have will make a better and new book than adding them to the old book, hence this new book titled; 'Sexually Wholesome Church'.
Much more importantly, sexual laxity, moral scandals, rape, incest, adultery, fornication and gay living is really on the increase, rather than abating, especially in the church of God.
Readers, respected leaders are falling like pack of cards into the immorality cesspool. Tiger Woods, the famous gulfer fell from grace to grass, lost his marriage and respect due to immoral flings with harem of women. The highly respected Bill Cosby lost his voice, respect and dignity when revelations came that he is an expert in drugging women and raping them for years.
Just few weeks ago, the falling from grace of the iconic Hollywood producer Herbert Weinstein came to the limelight. It was revealed that he had raped and sexually molested about 7 to 10 women.
In the church world, the print and electronic media keep reporting the sexual escapades happening in supposed holy and high places. A National Newspaper even had a report of how some supposed 'men and women of God' rape, take advantage of women and men in their churches. One of such men of God impregnated 21 women and claimed that the Holy Spirit led him into it! Another one claimed he was led to do deliverance for the private parts of women in his 'church'. By that, he has had sexual intercourse with many unsuspecting and deceived women. The list of atrocities in the name of sex keeps increasing on daily basis.
This new book however is written to look at the issue of sex from biblical point of view and proffer time-tested and proven principles of discipline to handle it rightly, for our personal and societal good. Irrespective of how the world view and practice sex, the word of God and the mind of God about it remains sancrosant.
Since God is the Creator of sex, He has also not left us in the dark about its proper practice and handling in His word. He wants a church that practices and handles the issue of sex in wholesome and spiritually healthy ways.
Few months ago, the publisher of 'Playboy Magazine, Heff Hefner died at the age of 92 years. It was reported that he used Viagra for years to boost his sexual prowess, in order to sleep with 4 young girls every night. He has published various editions of the Playboy Magazine that has corrupted the mind and lives of multiple millions of people. He was dubbed the 'sex god' and started the sexual revolution which encouraged premarital sex, extra-marital sex and sex in everything you do. He lived only for sex and will answer to God for his demonic sex life and that of millions he helped to destroy by his insatiable practice of warped sex life.
My heartfelt prayer is that God will use this book to enlighten and liberate many from their warped view and practice of sex, so that we can enjoy morally upright leaders, churches and societies that God will bless and prosper.
