BIBLE: Does not include graphic details of sex acts

| June 14, 2023 1:00 AM

I am responding to a letter written by Wes Alderson on June 2.

While it is true that those stories are in the Bible. A more careful and complete reading will allow one to realize two things: These stories are not shown with vivid graphics nor explicit details of the sex acts themselves as is the case with the books which need to be removed from the purview of children in libraries.

Also, as one reads further, the Bible reader will see there is a penalty or consequence for those deeds. God’s Word does not hide or cover up the fact that human kind have fallen short of the perfect state in which we were created by Him, but rather God provided through the death of His own Son, Jesus, the only way of forgiveness, which is a free gift to all who will turn from their sin to Him.
