Let's Run for it!
Paul J. Bucknell
Running a race requires endurance. I would like to share more on how to inspect your endurance level and how by God's grace our endurance can be built up to finish that race.
Many of us have fallen flat on our faces in the area of sexual purity. Not just once but many times. It might have become a lifestyle. You have tried but have been defeated. And noone likes this sense of defeat. But I would like to share with you the reasons for defeat and steps to overcome impurity and maintain purity of heart.

Many have given up on being sexually pure. Some are struggling hard with temptation. Almost each day e-mails arrive in the privacy of my office where I am invited to stop worrying about staying in that old race and to step into an adventure of sensual pleasure. Whispers like a bat flurrying about my head haunt me with, "Everyone else is doing it."

But it simply isn't true. It wasn't true of Job and the many others running the race of sexual purity. I hope you will join Job, me and a host of others in running this life race for sexual purity.
"I have made a covenant with my eyes; How then could I gaze at a virgin?"
- Job 31:1 (NASB)
This next page gives us an
overall look on how we
can join back in and stay in
right to the end on this race of purity.

Two crucial questions face us:
Will we run to the end?
Can we finish the race?
