Homework Assignment 3
2 Sam. 11:1-5 Though David was already married to other women (1 Sam. 19:27; 25:42, 43), what didn’t it prevent him from doing?
What was the outcome or results (vs. 4)?
According to this example, does the fact that a person is married exclude (keep) him from lusting? Why?
[If you haven’t controlled sexual lust as a single person, getting married probably won’t help, and in most cases it even gets worse. Sexual lust needs to be dealt with as a single person, and getting married is not a solution for ending lust (as seen in the cases of David and Samson – Judges 14:1-3; 16:1).].
Have you ever thought that by getting married your problem with lust would be solved? Why?
Matt. 5:28; Job 31:9-12
Who has committed adultery in his heart?
Had you realized that to mentally think about having sex (intercourse) with another person other than your spouse is the same as committing the act as far as God is concerned?
What can you do to start viewing people as God’s special creations instead of as sex objects?
