Sexual sin, be it heterosexual or homosexual, holds you captive. As it says here, “they are ropes that catch and hold” you. Our lack of self-control will be our doom. Anyone who doesn’t believe this to be true is foolish. God designed us to live a certain way, and when we violate that order, we suffer the consequences. It it weren’t true, why would this clear warning be in His Word (the Bible)?
21 For the Lord sees clearly what a man does, examining every path he takes.22 An evil man is held captive by his own sins;they are ropes that catch and hold him.23 He will die for lack of self-control;he will be lost because of his great foolishness.
Proverbs 5:21-23
