I can think of three types of "immorality", maybe there are more... One is a social concept. A person could be considered "immoral" because they wear their skirts too short or because of who they sleep with. Immorality in this sense is simply deviation from a social norm. This sort of "immorality" is caused by an individual who believes they don't have to abide by the social norms. Second, you have a religious concept. It's pretty much the same as the social concept, same variation by social group, but the religious people believe that "GOD" is the one that gives them the authority do say what is immoral and what is not. They believe that being a "sinner" is what makes a person immoral and changing to their brand of religion will keep a person from being immoral. There are many immoral people in church and behind the pulpit that can prove that religious belief does not save one from "immorality". Third, there is a Spiritual concept. If one believes in a loving God that would unite the whole of the universe and mankind in peace and harmony, then immorality is simply going against that plan of unity and harmony. If a person does someting to harm the earth or their brother or sister then they are harming the Whole, including themselves. The cause of immorality in this case is being against God, Spirit, the Whole of Life. Ironically, the third concept is the same as the second to those who realize that following a religion is not as important as following God. Two thousand years ago Yeshua (called Jesus in the Greek) taught that "The time has come and now is , to worship God in Spirit and in Truth".

What are the effects of immorality?

The effects of immorality is like defying a physical law, such as the law of gravity, you suffer the consequences. Tha same is true if you defy a moral law, such as the one that states : " Abstain from fornication." which is intercourses out of wedlock 1 Thessalonians 4: 3 reads." For this is the will of God, that you should be holy and abstain from immorality". What are the consequences of disobeying that command? The Bible says in 1 Corinthians 6. 18 " He that practices fornication is sinning against his own body". How is that true? here is a list of things that can happen to us: Transmitted disease Unwanted pregnancy The lost of God's favour Most youth who have engaged in premarital intercourses say that they regretted it afterward. Deep down, many girls would prefer someone who will protect them, not use them. And many boys find that they are less attracted to a girl who has given in to their advances. The reality of premarital intrecourses is far different from what is shown in movies and on TV. The entertainment industy glamorizes fornication and makes it look like harmless fun or even true love. Here is a list of what is considered to be immoral in the Bible. Galathians 5 : 19 sexual immorality, uncleanness, brazan conduct, idolatry, spiritism, hostility, strife, jealousy, fits of anger envy, drunkenness, wild parties. Drunkenness and wild parties where alcohol and drugs are everywhere can damage ones mind and body, and it is very hard to overcome any drug addiction According to Galatians 6: 7-9 which reads. " Do not be misled: God is not one to be mocked. For whatever a person is sowing, this he/she will also reap; because the one sowing with a view to the spirit ( God's requirements ) will reap everlasting life from the spirit. So let us not give up in doing what is fine, for in due time we will reap if we do not tire out". According to Psalms 37: 29 " the righteous will possess the earth , and they will live forever on it", which has always been God's purpose. So to answer your question, each and every action has its effects. If we sow immorality, we will reap the consequences from an immoral life, and if we sow a moral life according to God's requirements, we will keep ourselves out of trouble. Our life policy should have a strong foundation and a great respect for oneself and for others. Isaiah 48: 17,18 shows that God wants us to be happy.

What are the meaning and examples of immorality?

Examples of immorality is described in the Bible, as ( Works of the flesh or fleshly desires ) in the Book of Galatians 5: 19-21 in these words. " The works of the flesh are plainly seen, and they are sexual immorality, uncleanness, brazen conduct. idolatry, spiritism, hostility, strif, jealousy, fits of anger, dissensions, divisions, envy, drunkenness, wild parties..." The meaning is "it is the contrary of what is expected from the human race." Galatians 5: 22,23 describes what God expects from all those who want to walk by His requirements, called ( the fruitage of the spirit, influenced by God's way of thinking. ) in these words. " On the other hand, the fruitage of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, mildness, self-control. Against such things there is no law. Galatians 5:25,26 reads. " If we are living by spirit, (God's ways of thinking) let us also go on walking orderly by spirit. Let us not become egotistical, stirring up competition with one another, envying one another. Isaiah 48: 17,18 reminds us that God's influence on our behaviour is beneficial for our well-being and it keeps us out of trouble, in these words. " I, Jehovah, am your God, The One teaching you to benefit yourself, the One guiding you in the way you should walk. If only you would pay attention to my commandments ! Then your peace would become just like a river and your righteousness like waves of the sea. What a beautiful way to show the advantage of following God's influence. A river inspires PEACE, and the waves of the sea inspires CONTINUANCE.
