Appearance of Evil
A married man
met someone
who was not his wife.
The woman
he met with
was not his wife.
A married woman
met someone
who was not her husband.
The man
she met with
was not her husband.
Both have kids
with their spouses
but oddly enough
that doesn't stop
these two from
hanging out
with each other.
Work with each other.
Talk to each other.
For obviously
they don't care
how it appears to others.
And how disrespectful
they are to the ones
they have pledged
to spend their lives with.

There was a story about a pastor that was having an affair. He would not admit it though. A missionary confronted him. He adamantly denied it and vowed that if he was lying then God could take his child. He had two children: one healthy and one sick. He never dreamed that God would take away his healthy child. It was not until his child was being lowered into his grave that he finally repented.
Unfortunately being Christian does not make us any less human than the next person however there is temptation and there is resisting temptation. God judges us by the motives of our heart. You can always fool other people but you can't fool God and he will out you in the end. The loss of your reputation, your relationships, the shame of it all. There are certain things that people have done that will go down in history because we all know what they did. Why? When you could have chosen wisely?
David gave into his temptation of Bathsheba and God took their child away. David did not realize the wrong he had done until Nathan confronted him. Why ruin your life, the relationship with your spouse and kids all because of a temptation you could not resist? Would you risk the life of your children by giving into the lust of the eyes? When you got married you made your choice. If you did not think you would be able to keep your word then why get married to that person in the first place?
