Abstract

The aim of our study is to analyse the concept of sexual morality from a biblical perspective. To achieve that goal, the methodology used is based on critical littérature review, phenomenology and Biblical methodology which is a method that seeks to shed light upon the historical processes which give rise to the biblical texts. It proceeds from textual criticism to redaction criticism, operating with the help of scientific criteria. The objective of our study is to answer a number of questions useful to shed more light on the impact of sexual practices on the physical, psychological and spiritual lives of people and ultimately to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ. The interest of this work is spiritual, philosophical and social. The results of our analysis show that illicit sexual intercourse or sexual activity are the order of the day against God’s will and plans of happiness for humankind. It appears that the decadence and instability in the present world is at the image of abandonning God’s laws especially in terms of sexuality which a means for the devil to lead astray to spiritual and physical death. Illicit sex make us prostitute just worth a loaf of bread instead of the glorious price the Lord Jesus paid for us. We should pray and work hard to run away from sexual immorality to save ourselves and the world around us.
