B: BIBLE TEXTS:
1 Corinthians 6:9-11
9 – Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
10 – Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

1 Corinthians 6:18-20
18 – Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.
19 – What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
20 – For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.
Galatians 5:19-21
19 – Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
20 – Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
21 – Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
C: LESSON INTRODUCTION:
Moral according to the english dictionary is concerned with principles of right and wrong behaviours. Morality is perceived as the ability to know and do what is acceptable before God and the society. Immorality on the other hand is the violation of moral laws, norms or standards. Morality refers to things that are right while immorality has to do with things that are wrong. It is evil, sinful, or otherwise wrong behaviour. It manifests in the following areas:
-sexual immorality (bestiality – sexual intercourse between human and animal, homosexuality / lesbianism, masturbation, rape, incestuous, transsexuals and so on)
-drug abuse
-stealing or armed robbery
-negative influence of social media
-peer group influence
