Sex is a gift from God given to married couples
Anything outside of these boundaries is considered adultery.

Adultery is a subtle attack it is not an instant thing.

4 steps toward an affair
1- stop having sex, suppress sexual intimacy in our marriages. Only refrain from sexual intimacy when pursuing God. It is not just about the act … it is about pursuing as well.
2-establishing our standard of beauty outside the marriage. Comparing our spouses is not acceptable. Not only offer the words to your spouse setting the standard, but accepting our spouses standard.
-avoid tempting situations … tell our spouse about potential areas. Comments from others.
3- you need to be best/closest friends. There should never be a closer friendship than your spouse.
-no flirting
- no joking about sexual things
- Facebook is a potential issue … be guarded
- start discussing marriage issues with some one of the opposite sex
- must set boundaries
4- keeping God out it our lives and marriages will put our relationship in danger.
- 60 percent of marriages end in divorce.
Must honor our marriage bed and keep it holy
We can be forgiven our sexual sin … we just need to ask. Flee … run from sinful temptations.
