And until it's dealt with properly, our integrity is forfeited and the opportunities God has designed for us to glorify him and bless his people are lost. This leads to Paul's second key point. Despite all the sermons preached and articles written, not all sin is the same. Yes, all sin separates us from God. But some sin leaves vapor trails in our minds just like a jet leaves it streaks when it speeds across the sky.
Problem is, sin's vapor trails stay longer than the contrails in the sky.
We sin against our own body when we sin sexually. This is significant because of Paul's third point. We, our body and our spirit, are not our own. We were bought, we were ransomed at a great price. Jesus died to buy us back from sin and death.
