“Sin is blatant mutiny against God.”  -Oswald Chambers

1 Corinthians 6:18 KJV  “Flee fornication…”

1. Flee fornication means flee from sexual immorality(NIV Bible), including temptations of lust, premarital or extra-marital sex.
2. The devil can be successfully resisted but fornication cannot. When it comes to lust, the Bible says “flee”(1 Corin 6:18) not resist(James 4:7). Christians can resist the devil, but you can’t resist sexual temptations and fornication. That means lust, sexual temptations, and fornication are too strong to be “resisted” by your flesh and free will. 
3. Be like Joseph, use your free will wisely and don’t stand there and keep looking or talking to girls that show cleavage or thighs.  Instead, the Bible says you must flee fornication or run way! (Just like Joseph did, and unlike David and Samson, who didn’t!) 
4. Flee from fornication means you flee lustful thoughts, sexual temptations, and ways to watch porn. It means to avoid eye-contact with girls/women on the street, schools, TV, movies, the mall, or the internet that dress like whores(clothing showing cleavage or thighs).  Avoid looking at girls or women with sexually arousing or provocative clothing.
   
5. Flee from sexual temptations as soon as it comes. Don’t wait. The more you dwell on lustful thoughts, sexual temptations, provocative clothing, movies with sex scenes, bra commercials, short skirts showing thighs, tops showing cleavage, or porn, the more you will be tempted by sexual desires and lust.  And if you give in to those thoughts and lust, you will commit the sin of lusting, which Jesus says is the adultery of the heart.  

6. “Lust starts in the mind, temptation to watch porn/lust starts there, thoughts come in, then you dwell on it, and the desire grows, then you often gives in, and it leads to sin.” -Christian brother Aaron Kim

7. If you are tempted to think about lust, or have lustful thoughts, flee immediately(1 Corin 6:18), divert to God’s word, prayer, or worship. You can also go talk a walk and pray at the same time, or go jogging to get your mind off lust.
8. To flee from fornication, you can divert your attention to Bible verses, or a book on crucifying the flesh, overcoming lust, or books on holiness, or scriptures on crucifying the flesh.
9. Each Christian must pray to God and ask God for personal directions on helping you to crucify the flesh, and stop committing the sin of lust(adultery of the heart and mind). God might lead some of you to install internet porn filters or use passwords to go online, others to have accountability partners in the Lord. Also, God might lead some of you to completely go offline for a couple of months, or even longer.  Listen and follow God’s personal direction for you in this matter of overcoming lust or other sins.
10. Joseph, Samson, and David never had to deal with internet porn or movies showing cleavage or nudity. However, Samson and David still found ways to commit lust and adultery, and they did not flee from lust and fornication when temptation comes.
    

    So, for every Christian brother and sister, the key to victory is to crucify the flesh daily (once a week not good enough), love God and hate sin everyday, fear God, hide God’s word in your heart so that you don’t sin against God, and pray everyday to overcome sin.

Mark 14:38 Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.
