Lust

 

You would think that I would cover this topic while dealing with the reason’s why I’m a polygamist but that wouldn’t be appropriate because I married my wives out of love and not because of lust.

 

Human’s are visually stimulated creatures so usully if our eyes find something stimulating then we are instantly drawn to it.

 

Back when I was still living with my parents, I don’t use the term growing up because I believe that we are constantly growing, I always got excited on Christmas because when you got a present on Christimas it was usually something you wanted instead of the clothes and books we got on our birthdays.

 

So Christmas morning my father would make his rounds to the three houses and only when he entered could we open our presents. So each mother tried to make the presents underneath the tree as coulourful as possible so for me it really didn’t matter what was underneath all that wrapping what mattered to me was that it looked beautiful. That is an example of how humans are visually stimulated creatures.

 

Fastworward to my early adulthood just after I’d left my father’s house when I had my first encounter with a prostitute, it was my eyes which first caused me to sin it was my eyes which led to my body being tempted. If I was blind do you think that would have happened?

 

The devil works through a woman to bring about the downfall of men.

 

Think about it before you get all high and mighty think about it, remember Lust is one of the seven deadly sins and one of the easiest ways, after pride, for the devil to corrupt you and I’ll admit it my eyes have led me to stray. Recall if you will what Jessica and Tim said to me when I told them about my feelings for Roxanne.

 

Had I been another man and Roxanne another women we would have given into that lust and the devil would have corrupted both of us, but it would have been through her that he’d gained access to me.

 

Not convinced think about it have you ever met a women whose willing to sleep her way to the top? The devil is working through her and through her he will bring about the downfall of many men who will fall prey to her temptation and also through the women who will envy her success and emulate her behaviour.

 

Another example you hurt a friend of yours and instead of forgiving you and moving past the transgression she plots and one day she uses her anger and his lust to commit a sin and the devil wins that battle.

 

Over the years I have myself fallen prey to this sin and whenever it comes upon me I separate myself from my wives because if I was to lay with them while consumed by this lust I would be infecting them as well so I stay at my place and I pray, I ask the Lord to help me avoid this pit trap and until I’ve rid my heart of it I won’t touch my wives because not only would I be infecting them but I would be cheating on them even as I recomitted myself to them and wouldn’t the devil just enjoy that?

 

But just to close my statement answer this why are woman cursed with having a menstrual cycle and the pain of childbirth?

 

See how easy it is to fall?

 

See how the sins are intertwined?

 

How one influences the other until they eventuall bring about your downfall?
