A Plea for Sexual Purity: Sex, God, and Marriage

http://www.bruderhof.com/e-books/SexGodMarriage.htm#

Johann Christopher Arnold's highly recommended book on sexual purity is now available on the Internet. It can be downloaded in pdf format free of charge. Among those recommending this book are Richard John Neuhaus, J. I. Packer, Peter Kreft, and William Willimon. J. I. Packer, in reviewing Sex, God, and Marriage, writes:

"This is the work of a very wise man with a very clear vision of God’s ideal for marriage and family. Arnold concedes nothing to the impurity of our time, but looks into sexual matters by the light of Scripture with a restrained forthrightness that is truly ennobling. Simple and short, but deep, this is one of the best books available on handling our sexuality in a way that honors God."

For those who truly follow Jesus Christ sexual purity is an important mark of a Christian character, a character which reveals that the follower of Christ is manifesting the character of Christ himself, the fruit of the Spirit.
