Brother Dub McClish (see short bio), has written an excellent above titled commentary article on our society's slow moral deterioration over the past three generations. As brother McClish suggests, most of this moral deterioration has been mainly brought about by the 1960's "sexual revolution" (see articles here and here).At the end of his above article, brother McClish reminds us of "the ultimate consequence" regarding marriage:
"The ultimate consequence is even more drastic. The Bible says: “Let marriage be had in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled: for fornicators and adulterers God will judge” (Heb. 13:4). Only in God-authorized marriage (Mat. 19:6) do we find the honorable and undefiled place for “the bed” (i.e., fulfillment of the God-given sexual appetite). It is defiled in all other settings, constituting fornication and/or adultery. Those who take these sins to the Judgment will receive God’s just condemnation (Rev. 21:8; 22:14–15).
Then brother McClish provides us with three ways we can reclaim the past moral standards of our nation:
- Consistently live and promote Biblical morals (abandoning them produced the problem)
- Vote for candidates who have high moral standards
- Encourage elected officials to promote morality “at the top”
How greatly reproached indeed, brother McClish! (see here, here, and here).
