Deadly chemistry Week 15, 2013


“Something so wrong cannot be so sweet. I cannot understand how it could be bad. It feels so right!”
You are married and should never start having affairs with anyone for any reason. It is wrong. Let marriage be kept honorable in every way, and the marriage bed undefiled. For God will judge those who commit sexual sins, especially those who commit adultery Heb 13:4(ISV).
“But we have such chemistry together. We are soul-mates. Sleeping together is just an expression of the wonder of our relationship. How could it be wrong? It was more exciting than any time with the one I wedded.”
What do you mean by chemistry?
“Don’t you feel it with your loved one? You poor religious fanatic missing out on life’s pleasures! We have this uncanny bond together. We just sense what the other wants without a word. We almost hear our thoughts sometimes, and get the right expressions effortlessly. You know I have tried to do the right thing as you say and keep away, but it is so hard to keep apart. It takes too much energy just trying, so I just believe it must be alright to do the natural thing of giving in to the feelings.”
Poor soul, in bondage to sin: But she that liveth in pleasure is dead while she liveth 1Tm 5:6(KJV). You are showing all the symptoms of poisoning. Frowning? Take this issue of chemistry. Do you know about carbon monoxide?
“What has that got to do with our discussion?”
Everything I would say. There is a substance in your blood that carries oxygen to your tissues: haemoglobin. It is designed to carry oxygen but carbon monoxide can poison it. When it comes in contact with carbon monoxide, which by the way is a colourless and odourless gas like oxygen, the chemistry is very strong. The affinity between haemoglobin and carbon monoxide is approximately 230 times stronger than the affinity between haemoglobin and oxygen so haemoglobin binds to carbon monoxide in preference to oxygen. Yet haemoglobin is meant to carry oxygen to your tissues not carbon monoxide. In fact some scientific sensors would read “normal” for people poisoned with it as though they had lots of oxygen in the blood rather than poisonous carbon dioxide! If drastic steps are not taken this results in death.
“How does that apply to me?”
Don’t you see? Even in nature there are strong bonds that are poisonous. Stronger and greater chemistry than with your spouse is a manifestation of the poison. Even if you doubt the message of the Bible see the truth in nature. Do not let anyone deceive you with meaningless words, for it is because of these things that God's wrath comes on those who are disobedient Eph 5:6(ISV). Repent.
