God wants to give you blessings that adultery guarantees to take from you.

Repeating “the Talk” (6:20-23)

• Parental rules should originate from biblical principles (6:20).
• One talk from parents about purity cannot compete with the million messages they receive from culture (6:21).
• Ensure that your lessons emphasize the need and the blessing of obedience (6:22-23).

Realizing the Progression (6:24-29)

• Words – Flirtatious communication is the beginning of inappropriate relationships (6:24).
• Looks – Unrestrained gazing is deepening an obsession that longs for physical culmination (6:25).
• Actions – Adulterous progression leads to embracing a forbidden relationship and estranging a forever commitment (6:26-29).

Recognizing the Consequences (6:30-35)

• Your Family – You do irreversible damage to your family when choosing someone else over them (6:30-31).
• Yourself – The worst thing you can do for yourself is always putting your temporal desires first (6:32).
• Your Reputation – You may receive forgiveness for adultery, but your reputation will never be free from its consequences (6:33).
• The Other Family – You can never repay another family when you rob them of a spouse and parent (6:34-35).
• Remove any rival before or during your marriage that takes something away from your spouse.
