In Judges, chapter ten, verse six, the Israelites forsook the Lord and served other gods. The children of Israel did evil again in His sight and served Baalim, and Ashtaroth, and the gods of Syria, and the gods of Zidon, and gods of Moab, and the gods of the children of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines, and forsook the LORD, and served not Him. In the Canaanite religion, a person who devotes to their gods could also indulge in prostitution as a fertility ritual in seeking pregnancy from false gods. Denomination and immoral sexual pleasures were compatible.
Similarly, some teach that Christian love and sexual fulfillment are sometimes compatible outside the marriage covenant. They allege that because salvation is by free grace, it automatically covers all sins, which is wrong. Some suggest that such conduct is not a sin: which is incorrect. Such a teaching is a perversion of God’s redemption for His people and where believers must not accept but reject it.
The renewed apostasy of the Israelites from the Lord in the same verse in Judges chapter ten, verse six, the deities are mentioned as being served by the Israelites: in addition, they were also serving Baalim, Baal, and Ashtaroth in Judges two, eleven and thirteen, respectively. Israel had balanced the number of divine deliverances by a similar number of idols that it served, so their measure of the nation’s iniquity capacity is the same proportion as the measure of the delivering grace of God.
Today, when believers commit to such activity as the Israelites did with serving other gods, it only prohibits God from moving mightily in their lives. When followers decide to submit to evil, it only sets and sends them back to where they came out from at the beginning. The works of God in the person start to diminish, and the actions of the evil one come into them to do his scheme.
