Pro_6:24

To keep thee from the evil woman.

The sin of uncleanness

1. One great kindness God designed men in giving them His law was to preserve them from this sin.

2. The greatest kindness we can do ourselves is to keep at a distance from this sin. Arguments urging this caution are--

(1) It is a sin that impoverishes men.

(2) It threatens death; it kills men.

(3) It brings guilt upon the conscience and debauches it.

(4) It ruins the reputation, and entails perpetual infamy.

(5) It exposes the adulterer to the rage of the jealous husband. (Matthew Henry.)
