The American community is a very consuming community. Sex is huge over here. It is one of the greatest powers given to us by God through which we, mysteriously, take part in His divine role and create life. The American community has been at work destroying that life confusing the gift of God with its tragic obsession over lesser things.

Sex is a power we can harness in the role God created for it, which blesses a community by establishing a strong foundation of identity: this is a family, here is a father and a mother honoring marriage (the image of God), with boundaries in place that keep order to the chaos of passions and desires. It is by wantonly giving over to such elements of degradation that the erosion of the strength of our vows, our spoken word, by which God created the heavens and the earth, begins.

Think of it like a plot of land or a city with walls built around it. The walls create definition; here is inside a city, here is outside a city. Inside a city, there is protection. Outside its walls there is no authority or agreed state of terms and laws put in place by which to protect against the warring opinions of control. Inside a city there is a government/leader who creates identity- this is who we are and what we do, this is who we are not, and laws are kept in place to solidify that identity by taking away freedoms to those who don’t adhere to them.

Family is a microcosm of the city definition as stated above. The agreed set of terms were stated in the vow ceremony upon which the couple embarks the great adventure of establishing a new city, a new plot of land defining who they are and what they do.

Evangelism is the act of communicating a better way to build. People don’t know by and of themselves that there is a better way. It is foolishness to think a child knows better than a parent before their mind is even awakened. It is by education that we learn, and being educated in the ways of God, the ways set by the Creator, we are made complete in a world that is perpetually fallen and incomplete.
