I had a recent conversation with a young man that is not a Christian (not yet) about Octomom, the woman who mothered fourteen children out of wedlock. He wondered if it was okay since she did not engage in sex to create the babies, his premise is that there was no sex outside of marriage and the bible did not say that it's wrong to create in that manner.
Like this young man many believers live life looking for their spiritual loopholes, saying to themselves "can I go this far and not be in sin, can I do this and still be right, is there a loophole that will allow me to do what I desire and still be okay with God?".
It is not always what you do, many times a good thing is done for the wrong reason and with the wrong motive, God does judge the intent of our hearts. As we examine our spiritual journey with the Lord we must wak in such a way to glorify God and make sure that we do what do form a pure heart with right motives. Spiritual loopholes are gateways that the enemy uses to usher in the strongman who then holds the portal open for akin spirits to be operative in your life. Guard your heart with all diligience for out of it flows the issues of life. Loopholes will cause us to be entangled and ultimately bound.
