Sexual Purity at St Andrew church

Daddy is very into elegant, classic stuff. To keep bringing him to Jesus, I brought him to the St Andrew Church yesterday for an evening service. The building conveys a grand and noble atmostphere. But the band is leading contempo christian music. Quite a scene! After 6, more come in. Mostly english-speaking chinese, some foreigners. I found their dressing very much different from ordinary chinese church. The usher was wearing a sporty bra top with a mesh sweater on top. I was not suprised indeed I felt comfy here. The whole service was in english. Daddy couldn't understant a word but suprisingly he kept awake the whole time. I believe God was there with us no matter the language barrier. Once again, I experience whenever I thought I am doing for other and God, I would be the one to be benefit. The sermon was about sexual purity! Where still I am stuggling at everyday. God is reminding me his standard in this area. Can't inherit God's land! Preacher compared sex perception of "modern" to perception of God.
We think sex is like chocolate God thinks sex is like ahcohol We think freedom to do God thinks fall into sin trap We think do for love God thinks silly excuse just like "kill for hateress" We think natural desire God thinks sex is greedy I appreciate the music that touched my heart, the pray for the single getting over the loneliness, the holybread sharing dipping into real wine is the very first time I do in such way. Surely will go back some sunday.
