It’s worth repeating that the Apostle Paul brings special emphasis to sexual sin: “Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a man commits are outside his body, but he who sins sexually sins against his own body.”[123] It’s not an unforgivable sin since Jesus Himself explicitly forgave a woman caught in the very act of adultery: “Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.”[124] Jesus ministered to women who’d fallen to sexual temptation. Indeed, God will forgive those who seek forgiveness and repent from their sins, for “as far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.”[125] He even forgets our transgressions: “I, even I, am he who blots out your transgressions, for my own sake, and remembers your sins no more.”[126] If you’ve sinned, seek God’s forgiveness, and sin no more. His forgiveness doesn’t necessarily remove the wake we’ve created through our sins, their natural consequences, but He will help us navigate through our own mess, even redeem our mistakes in others’ lives if we’ll repent. If you’ve had a baby out of wedlock, you still have the baby, but, if you repent, God will not hold your sins against you and will welcome you into eternity. That’s the reason He came, to save sinners like me and you and the Apostle Paul: “Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners – of whom I am the worst.”[127] Thanks be to God! If He can save the “worst,” He can save you.
