SEXUAL SINS THAT
HAVE NO SALVATION
We are living in a time where nearly everything seems acceptable.
The boundaries that once defined right from wrong have become blurred and what used to be called sin is now celebrated as pleasure, liberty, or even progress.
The world embraces moral decay under the disguise of freedom and modernity.
But the real question is this.
What does the Bible truly say about sexuality?
What does God think about the choices that society so freely promotes today?
There's a common belief that God is only concerned with extreme moral failures like cheating in marriage.
Others have come to believe that premarital sex no longer matters in a culture that praises independence and living your truth.
But scripture tells a very different story.
God's word speaks with clarity and it exposes seven specific sexual sins that he despises.
Not because he wants to shame us but because they deeply damage the body, the soul and our relationship with him.
These warnings are not just ancient regulations meant for a different time.
They are divine principles that transcend generations because unrestrained desire still holds the power to enslave human beings today just as it did thousands of years ago.
And perhaps the most sobering truth is this.
What the modern world calls free love, the Bible describes as a deadly chain that tightens around your spirit.
In this message, you'll uncover what those seven sins are, why they matter, what their consequences can be, and most importantly, how you can break free from them through the power of Jesus Christ before it's too late.
1. Sin number one, fornication.
Fornication is one of the most commonly ignored yet spiritually destructive sins in today's society.
At its core, fornication refers to engaging in sexual intimacy outside of the sacred covenant of marriage.
While the world often brushes it off as harmless or even romantic, scripture paints a much more serious picture.
God's design for sexuality was never intended to be casual or without commitment.
Instead, it was crafted to reflect a holy and lifelong bond between a man and a woman under his blessing.
Here is a clear command.
Run from sexual immorality. Every other sin a person commits is outside the body. But the sexually immoral person sins against his or her own body.
Notice that the instruction is not to fight or resist. It is to flee.
God doesn't tell us to stand firm and try to reason with temptation when it comes to fornication.
He urges us to escape it altogether because the damage it causes is both internal and spiritual.
Fornication is a fire that consumes from the inside out.
But what makes fornication so serious in the eyes of God?
It's not just a physical act.
It's a spiritual violation.
Sexual intimacy was created as a sacred union, a reflection of the deep covenant between Christ and his church.
That's why it is written, "For this reason, a man shall leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh." This mystery is profound, and I'm saying that it refers to Christ and the church.
No. When someone engages in sexual acts outside of marriage, they are misusing a gift meant to symbolize divine faithfulness and unity.
The consequences of fornication go far beyond fleeting pleasure.
In the emotional realm, it often results in betrayal, broken trust, and heartbreak.
Many relationships that begin with passion end in confusion and pain.
Unplanned pregnancies, abortion, abandonment, and lifelong wounds can all be traced back to a moment that the world labeled as freedom.
More. But the most devastating consequence is spiritual.
A sense of emptiness that no amount of pleasure can fill.
Fornication creates a barrier between the soul and God, slowly numbing a person to his voice and presence.
We're reminded that God's will for our lives includes sanctification.
For this is the will of God, your sanctification, that you abstain from sexual immorality, that each of you know how to control his / her own body in holiness and honor.
This is not about legalism or repression.
It's about protection.
God isn't trying to withhold joy from us.
He's trying to protect us from the consequences of a counterfeit version of love.
Throughout the Bible, we see vivid imagery connecting sexual immorality with spiritual infidelity.
In the book of Hosea, God speaks of Israel as an unfaithful bride who pursues other lovers and abandons her covenant with him.
This metaphor isn't accidental.
Just as a husband experiences deep sorrow when betrayed, God expresses grief when his people pursue the temporary pleasures of sin instead of remaining faithful to him.
Perhaps one of the most sobering warnings comes from Revelation 2:18, which states, "But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death."
These words remind us that fornication is not just a moral issue.
It's a spiritual one with eternal negative consequences.
However, there is also grace.
The same God who condemns sin the One who forgives abundantly.
Remember the story of the woman at the well in John 4. Jesus knew she had been with multiple men and that the one she lived with was not her husband. Yet instead of rejecting her, he revealed himself to her as the Messiah and offered her living water.
In John 8, when a woman caught in adultery was brought before Jesus, he told her accusers, "Let him who is without sin cast the first stone." No one didi. And to the woman, he said, "Neither do l condemn you. Go and sin no more."
These encounters reveal the heart of God, not justice, but mercy.
He does not excuse sin, but he offers forgiveness and restoration to those who turn to him in humility.
That same grace is available today.
If you find yourself trapped in sexual sin, it is not too late.
There is a way out.
There is freedom through repentance, healing through surrender, and hope through Christ.
So the call today is urgent.
Do not play with the fire of fornication.
What may feel like love or liberation in the moment can become a lifelong chain.
Run from what seeks to enslave you.
God created you not for shame but for holiness, not for bondage, but for freedom.
And that freedom is found in walking closely with him.
2. Sin number two, adultery.
Adultery is not simply the act of breaking a marital promise.
It is the betrayal of a sacred covenant.
In a world where marriage is increasingly seen as temporary or even optional, the seriousness of adultery is often down played or romanticized.
Movies, music, and social media glamorize forbidden affairs as thrilling or passionate.
But God's word tells a very different story.
To Him, adultery is not just a moral lapse.
It is a profound spiritual wound that tears apart families, hearts, and souls.
In Exodus 2014, we find one of the ten commandments delivered by God to his people.
You shall not commit adultery.
This command is not open to interpretation or cultural revision.
It's not a suggestion or a temporary guideline.
It is a divine law rooted in God's design for faithful and holy union between a husband and a wife. One man, one woman.
But adultery doesn't begin in the bedroom.
It begins much earlier.
Jesus made this clear when he said, "You have heard it said, "You shall not commit adultery." But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
This teaching reveals the spiritual depth of this sin.
Adultery doesn't require a physical act to become real in the eyes of God.
It can begin with a lingering glance, a secret fantasy, or a heart that slowly drifts away from commitment.
The damage caused by adultery is devastating.
It fractures the foundation of trust between spouses and introduces betrayal into a space that was meant to be a refuge.
Children often become the silent victims, confused by the emotional chaos and left to deal with the ripple effects of broken homes.
Even when forgiveness is offered, scars remain.
Scars that can take years to heal.
But beyond emotional pain, there is also spiritual damage.
Adultery breaks not just a promise to a partner, but a vow made before God.
Proverbs 6:32 puts it bluntly, "He who commits adultery lacks sense. He who does it destroys himself."
This scripture makes it clear that adultery is self-destructive.
It doesn't just harm others.
It brings ruin to the soul of the one who commits it.
This sin doesn't merely stain a relationship.
It corrupts the heart, weakens spiritual sensitivity, and can lead to a hardened conscience.
The Bible gives us sobering examples of this reality.
King David, a man after God's own heart, fell into adultery with Bathsheba.
What began as a moment of lust quickly spiraled into deception, manipulation, and even murder.
The consequences were far-reaching.
Death entered his household, and division plagued his family.
Then there's Solomon, the wisest man who ever lived, who was led astray by his many relationships with foreign women.
His heart turned away from the Lord, and his kingdom was never the same.
These stories aren't meant to entertain or depress.
They're divine warnings.
They show us that no one is above temptation and that even the most spiritually gifted person can fall when desire is left unchecked.
Adultery doesn't announce itself with fanfare.
It slips in through small compromises and hidden thoughts.
It thrives in secrecy, in unmet emotional needs, and in the lies we tell ourselves to justify stepping outside of God's will.
But again, the grace of God shines even in the darkest places.
In John chapter 8, when a woman caught in adultery was brought before Jesus, the crowd demanded her execution.
Yet Jesus with divine wisdom and compassion said, "Let the one who is without sin cast the first stone."
One by one her accusers walked away.
Jesus then looked at her and said, "Neither do I condemn you. Go and sin no more."
He did not excuse her sin, but he offered her something far more powerful than condemnation.
He gave her the grace to start over.
This is the heart of the gospel.
Yes, adultery is agrievous sin, and yes, it can destroy lives.
But God's mercy is always greater than our worst decisions.
The blood of Jesus is strong enough to cleanse the soul of even the deepest betrayal.
Restoration is possible when repentance is genuine and healing is sought with humility.
Today, many justify emotional or physical affairs by saying things like, "My marriage is already broken," or, "I deserve to be happy."
But happiness built on the ruins of broken promises will never bring peace.
Real joy is found in honoring God's commands, protecting sacred vows, and choosing love even when it's hard.
The world may laugh at these values, but heaven treasures them.
The invitation is simple yet urgent.
Protect your heart.
Guard your thoughts.
Fight for your marriage.
If you're single, honor the marriages of others by staying far from any form of involvement.
If you've failed in the past, know that forgiveness is available.
But don't keep walking in a direction that leads to destruction.
God designed marriage as a reflection of his covenant with us.
Faithful, unbreakable, pure.
When we honor that covenant, we not only strengthen our earthly relationships, but we grow closer to the God who created them.
Remember what God has joined together.
Let no one separate, not even you.
3. Sin number three, uncontrolled lust.
Lust is one of the most subtle and deceptive forms of sin because it often begins silently in the private corners of the mind and heart.
Unlike adultery or fornication which are outward and visible, lust can be completely hidden from others and still be burning like wildfire within a person.
It doesn't require physical contact to be destructive.
It starts with what seems like a simple thought, an innocent glance, or a lingering fantasy.
But left unchecked, it becomes a force that consumes, corrupts, and ultimately enslaves the soul.
Jesus did not take this sin lightly.
In Matthew 5:28, he said, "But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart."
This statement dismantles the idea that thinking isn't doing.
According to Jesus, our thoughts matter just as much as our actions.
Lust is not just a private indulgence.
Lust is a spiritual breach, a silent betrayal of purity.
It pollutes the heart and distorts the way we see others, reducing human beings made in God's image to objects of desire.
The danger of lust lies in its insatiable nature.
It never satisfies.
It always asks for more.
More images, more stimulation, more fantasy.
What begins as a moment of curiosity can grow into a habit and that habit into an addiction.
Countless people today live trapped in secret chains.
Pornography, obsessive thoughts, sexual fantasies, and visual dependency.
These are not minor issues.
They erode relationships, damage intimacy, and blur the ability to experience love the way God intended it.
Scripture addresses this pattern with wisdom and clarity.
Proverbs 27:20 says, "Death and destruction are never satisfied, and neither are human eyes."
This verse speaks directly to the nature of lust.
The eyes are a gateway and when they are not guarded, they become channels for spiritual decay.
In modern culture, the constant flood of sensual content through advertising, television, music, and especially social media has normalized lustful thoughts.
What once was shameful is now branded as entertainment, humor, or empowerment.
But God calls his people to live differently.
Ephesians 5:3 says, "But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality or of any kind of impurity or of greed because these are improper for God's holy people."
Notice the standard here.
Not even a hint.
God is not being harsh.
He's being protective.
He knows how lust can start with a spark and end in a fire that consumes everything in its path.
Lust unchecked can lead to unfaithfulness, the breakdown of families, moral confusion, and a hardened heart toward the things of God.
The Bible gives us a tragic but powerful example in the life of Samson.
Chosen by God to be a deliverer for Israel, Samson had extraordinary strength and a divine calling.
But his weakness for women and unchecked passions led him down a path of compromise.
His involvement with Delilah ultimately led to his downfall.
He lost his strength, his sight, and his freedom.
Not because he was physically weak, but because he let lust rule his decisions.
His story reminds us that even those anointed and set apart can fall if they allow desire to govern their choices.
In contrast, we see the wisdom of Job who made a conscious decision to fight against lust at its root.
In Job 31:1, he declared, "I made a covenant with my eyes, not to look lustfully at a young woman."
Job understood that purity begins not in the hands or the body, but in the eyes and mind.
Guarding what you allow yourself to see and dwell on is not legalism.
It's spiritual warfare.
Lust is especially dangerous because it can rob you of your peace, your purity, and even your ability to love others selflessly.
When your heart is dominated by carnal desire, you lose sight of God's design for love, one that is rooted in sacrifice, commitment, and honor.
Lust twists love into selfishness.
It makes others a means to an end rather than people to be loved with dignity and respect.
But just as with every sin, there is a way out.
God offers cleansing and renewal to anyone willing to surrender their thoughts and desires to him.
First John 1:9 promises, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."
Even the most stained heart can be made clean by the blood of Jesus.
Even the most broken mind can be restored by the renewing power of the Holy Spirit.
If you are battling lust, know this, you are not alone and you are not beyond help.
But victory will not come from simply trying harder or making shallow promises to do better.
It comes from radical surrender, being willing to cut off access to what feeds your weakness.
Whether it's social media, entertainment, or relationships that encourage sin.
In Matthew 5:29, Jesus said, "If your right eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away."
He wasn't advocating self harm.
He was emphasizing the seriousness of cutting off sin at the source, no matter the cost.
You were not created to be a prisoner to your passions.
God has called you to walk in holiness and freedom.
Don't let the world tell you that your desires define you.
You are more than your impulses.
You are a child of God and he has given you the power to overcome through the Spirit.
Choose today to turn from lust and run toward purity.
Replace toxic content with the word of God.
Fill your mind with truth and your heart will follow.
Lust may promise satisfaction, but it delivers slavery.
Purity may seem like a restriction, but it leads to joy, clarity, and deep intimacy with the Father.
You were made for more.
Live like it.
4. Sin number four, homosexuality.
In today's world, few topics are as controversial and emotionally charged as homosexuality.
It is presented by many as a symbol of freedom, identity, and love.
While those who question it on moral or biblical grounds are often labeled as intolerant or hateful.
Yet, as followers of Christ, we are not called to follow public opinion.
We are called to be faithful to God's word.
And scripture speaks with clarity on this subject, not because God is cruel, but because He loves us enough to confront what pulls us away from His design.
From the very beginning in Genesis 1:27-28, we are told that God created humanity in His image. Male and female he created them. He blessed them and said, "Be fruitful and multiply."
This was not just a biological arrangement.
It was a spiritual blueprint.
The sexual union between a man and a woman in marriage reflects both the creative power of God and his covenantal love.
When this design is altered, the foundation of identity, family, and society becomes unstable.
Leviticus 18:22 gives one of the clearest statements in the Old Testament.
Man, do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman.
That is detestable.
Even the language is strong not because God delights in judgment but because he is revealing something profoundly important.
Sexuality in his eyes is not just about pleasure or consent.
It is about alignment with the purpose He embedded into creation.
In the New Testament this theme is reaffirmed.
Romans 1:26-27 speaks of individuals who abandon natural relations and exchange them for unnatural ones, engaging in same-sex acts, and in the process distancing themselves from the knowledge of God.
This passage does not only describe physical actions.
It describes a heart that turns away from God's truth to embrace a distorted version of love.
Paul is not writing from a place of hatred, but from heartbreak over a world that chooses rebellion over redemption.
It's important to note that the Bible never singles out homosexuality as the only sin.
In fact, 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 lists several behaviors that distance a person from God's kingdom.
Sexual immorality, idolatry, greed, drunkenness, slander, homosexual acts are listed among these, not above them.
But the very next verse, 1 Corinthians 6:11, offers a message of extraordinary hope.
And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
This verse reminds us of a powerful truth.
Transformation is possible.
The church in Corinth was full of people who had once been trapped in all kinds of sin, including same-sex behavior.
But they were changed not by their own effort, but by the grace and power of Lord Jesus Christ.
The same invitation exists today.
No matter what someone's past looks like, no matter how deep the struggle or how long the pattern has been present, God still offers cleansing, renewal, and a brand new identity through Christ.
This is why the message of the gospel is not one of condemnation, but of deliverance.
The goal is not to shame people, but to call them into the fullness of what God intended for them.
It is not hate to say that something is sin if God has called it so.
It is love to warn someone before they step off a spiritual cliff.
Jesus came not to affirm us in our brokenness, but to heal us from it.
He never looked at a hurting soul and said, "Stay as you are."
He said, "Go and sin no more."
Unfortunately, today's culture promotes the idea that rejecting homosexual behavior is rejecting people altogether.
But that is a lie.
Christians are not called to hate, exclude or mock anyone.
We are called to love with truth and compassion.
Jesus ate with sinners, touched lepers, and defended the accused, but he never excused sin.
His love transformed people.
It didn't leave them where it found them.
The story of Sodom and Gomorrah in Genesis 19 is often cited as a judgment against sexual sin, and rightfully so.
The cities were not only violent and cruel.
They were consumed by sexual perversion.
Their destruction wasn't random.
It was a response to deep rebellion against God's design.
Jude 17 confirms this by stating that these cities indulged in sexual immorality and pursued unnatural desires and therefore suffered eternal fire as an example.
Yet even in this, God gave them warnings.
He sent angels, offered mercy, and called people out before the judgment came.
It is crucial to remember this.
God's condemnation is never aimed at destroying a person.
It is aimed at destroying sin.
Homosexuality, like every other sin, is a deviation from God's plan that brings spiritual bondage.
But Christ came to break those chains.
The cross is proof that no one is too far gone, that no one is beyond grace.
The same God who says this is sin also says "come to me and I will make you new".
If you or someone you love is struggling with same sex attraction, know that the journey is not about behavior modification.
It is about heart transformation.
God doesn't just want to change your actions.
He wants to restore your heart and renew your mind.
That is the true definition of freedom.
Not doing whatever feels good, but being empowered to live according to God's perfect will.
The world may celebrate same-sex relationships as brave, beautiful, or even sacred.
But the word of God tells a different story.
And as believers, our loyalty must be to the Word, not the world.
Truth is not determined by popular opinion.
It's revealed by the One who made us. God-Creator.
God's design for identity, love, and intimacy is not outdated.
It is timeless.
And when we walk in alignment with it, we find a level of peace and fulfillment that no counterfeit can offer.
So let this be a call not to anger or pride, but to prayer, compassion, and courage.
Speak the truth in love.
Live with integrity and trust that God's design is always best and better than anything the world can offer.
No matter what your past holds, remember in Christ Jesus you can be made new.
5. Sin number five, prostitution and sexual immorality.
Throughout history, prostitution and sexual immorality have been practiced in nearly every culture and civilization.
From ancient temples in Mesopotamia to the streets of modern cities, these sins have been justified, normalized, and even woripped.
Yet, from Genesis to Revelation, the word of God consistently reveals His deep sorrow and holy anger toward these acts.
Why? Because they degrade what God made sacred.
They distort the purpose of human sexuality and they chain the soul in invisible but deadly bondage.
Prostitution is not merely an economic transaction or a matter of personal choice.
It is a desecration of the temple that is the human body.
The Bible teaches us that our bodies are not just flesh and blood.
They are vessels of divine purpose made to glorify God.
In 1 Corinthians 6:15:16, Paul writes, "Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and unite them with a prostitute? Never. Do you not know that he who unites himself with a prostitute is one with her in body?"
This passage is more than a warning.
It's a revelation of how sexual acts form spiritual ties, often called soul ties, that go far beyond what we can see or feel in the moment.
Sexual immorality, which includes prostitution, but also covers pornography, casual sex, and any form of sexual activity outside God's plan for marriage, creates deep wounds in the human heart.
It turns something God designed as a sacred bond into a cheap exchange.
It replaces love with lust, replaces covenant with convenience, and replaces purity with perversion.
And though the world glamorizes it, calling it empowerment, freedom, or pleasure, the soul knows the truth.
What is sold as liberation often leads to emptiness, shame, and brokenness.
Deuteronomy 23:17-18 speaks directly against the practice of prostitution, stating that no daughter of Israel should become a prostitute, and no earnings from such acts should be brought into the house of the Lord.
This isn't just about cultural practices.
It's about honoring the holiness of God's people and the purity of His sanctuary.
God's law was meant to protect both the individual and the community from spiritual contamination.
The damage from sexual sin doesn't just affect the person involved.
It spreads like a disease, breaking down families, relationships, and even entire cultures.
In ancient times, particularly in pagan nations like Canaan and Babylon, prostitution was often tied to idol worship.
Temples were filled with sacred prostitutes who performed sexual rituals in the name of fertility gods.
But what was considered spiritual or mystical in those cultures was in reality an abomination before God.
He warned Israel repeatedly not to adopt the ways of these nations, not only because they were impure, but because they led to spiritual death.
Leviticus chapter 18 lays out a detailed list of forbidden ssxual practices, reminding the people that such acts defile the land and bring judgment.
Despite the darkness of this sin, the Bible also gives us breathtaking stories of redemption and grace.
One of the most powerful examples is Mary Magdalene.
Though not all scholars agree on her exact background, tradition has long held that she was a woman marked by a sinful past.
But when she encountered Jesus Christ, everything changed.
Jesus Christ didn't see her as a label.
Jesus Christ saw her as a soul worth saving.
She was transformed, healed, and became one of the most devoted followers of Christ Jesus.
Another moving story is found in the book of Hosea.
God commands the prophet Hosea to marry a woman named Gomer who repeatedly commits adultery and even falls into prostitution.
Yet Hosea continues to pursue her, love her, and restore her.
Hosea married Gomer at God's command to symbolize the relationship between God and Israel, illustrating Israel's unfaithfulness to Him through idolatry. Their marriage served as a powerful metaphor for God's love and forgiveness despite Israel's betrayal.
This is more than a story about a marriage.
It's a picture of God's relentless love for his people.
Even when we sell ourselves to sin, God calls us back.
Even when we are unfaithful, God remains faithful.
The reality is that prostitution and sexual immorality do more than harm the body.
They enslave the soul.
They leave people feeling used, abused, misused, unloved, and discarded.
They promise connection, but deliver isolation.
They may offer temporary pleasure, but always at the cost of long-term peace.
And in the spiritual realm, they open doors to demonic oppression, confusion, and deep spiritual bondage.
Yet the cross of Christ remains stronger than any sin.
The blood of Jesus Christ has the power to cleanse even the most shameful past.
First Peter 2:24 says, "He himself bore our sins in his body on the cross so that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds, you have been healed."
That healing includes emotional wounds, memories of abuse, cycles of addiction, and the shame of sexual sin.
God doesn't just forgive, He restores.
If you're carrying the weight of past immorality or if you're currently entangled in sexual sin, you don't have to stay there.
God sees you.
He knows your story and He wants to write a new one.
But it begins in you with repentance, a turning away from the sin, and a running toward the arms of the Father.
There is no shame too great that He cannot cover.
There is no past too messy that He cannot redeem.
Your body was not made for the marketplace.
It was not made for shame.
It was crafted by God for God to be a holy vessel for His presence.
When you walk in purity, you reclaim your identity.
You honor the One who created you and you open your life to the joy and freedom that come from living in alignment with His will.
6. Sin number six, incest.
The first incest happened between Ham and his mother, Mrs Noah. ( Scroll right down for biblical answers here *)
Incest is one of the most deeply troubling and spiritually destructive sins addressed in the Bible.
It involves intimate relations between close family members.
Relationships that God designed to be defined by trust, protection, and respect.
When these sacred boundaries are crossed, the result is not only emotional and psychological devastation, but also profound spiritual violation.
The pain caused by incest echoes through generations, leaving behind wounds that often remain hidden but never truly heal without divine intervention.
From the very beginning, God established the family as the foundational structure of human life.
It was meant to be a safe haven, a place where love is nurtured, identity is formed, and trust is unshakable.
That is why incest is so grievous in his sight.
It is not just a sexual act.
It is a betrayal of sacred trust.
It poisons the atmosphere of the home and turns what should be a source of protection into a source of fear and trauma.
In Leviticus 18, God gives Israel a long and detailed list of sexual boundaries, many of which specifically address incest.
He commands, "No one is to approach any close relative to have sexual relations. I am the Lord."
The list goes on to include parents, siblings, grandchildren, aunts, uncles, and in-laws.
These commands were not arbitrary or cultural.
They were holy instructions meant to preserve the dignity and purity of the family structure.
God knew the devastating impact that incest would have on individuals and communities, and he spoke clearly to protect his people from it.
Incest brings confusion and corruption into the family unit.
It blurs lines that were never meant to be crossed.
It introduces shame where there should be love, introduces silence where there should be communication, and introduces guilt where there should be joy.
In the physical world, it often results in psychological trauma, depression, anxiety, and lifelong struggles with trust.
In the spiritual world, it opens doors to generational sin, curses, and deeply rooted bondage that cannot be broken by human strength alone.
The Bible does not shy away from showing the consequences of incest.
One of the most striking examples is found in 2 Samuel 13 where Amnan, the son of King David, becomes obsessed with his halfsister Tamar.
Consumed by lust, he tricks her and forces himself upon her.
The result is tragedy.
Tamar's life is shattered.
Amnon is eventually killed by his brother Absalom and David's entire household spirals into dysfunction and bloodshed.
( Read in full , 2 Samuel 13:23-38 NIV - Absalom Kills Amnon - Two years later,
³² But Jonadab son of Shimeah, David's brother, said, "My lord should not think that they killed all the princes; only Amnon is dead. This has been Absalom's express intention ever since the day Amnon raped his sister Tamar. )
This horrifying event serves as a powerful warning of what happens when boundaries established by God are ignored.
Another example appears in 1 Corinthians chapter 5 where the Apostle Paul rebukes the church for tolerating a form of incest that even the surrounding pagan society found shameful.
A man was living in a sexual relationship with his father's wife. and instead of mourning over the sin, the church had become proud.
Apostle Paul's response is firm and unambiquous.
Shouldn't you rather have gone into mourning and put out of your fellowship the man who has been doing this?
His words remind us that the church must never compromise truth for the sake of appearances or comfort.
Sin must be exposed before it can be healed.
What makes incest even more dangerous is that it often thrives in secrecy.
Victims are silenced by fear, shame, or manipulation.
Perpetrators hide behind titles like father, uncle, or brother, abusing the trust given to them by God to protect and nurture.
And while human justice systems may fail, God sees every act, hears every cry, and promises that no sin committed in darkness will remain hidden forever.
Luke 12:2 says, "There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed or hidden that will not be made known.
Luke 12:2 states that "there is nothing covered that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known." This verse emphasizes that all hidden actions and secrets will eventually come to light, reflecting the idea of divine judgment and truth.
But as with every sin mentioned in scripture, even this one is not beyond the reach of God's grace.
The gospel is not a message for perfect people.
It is good news for broken people who are willing to be healed.
Jesus came to bind up the brokenhearted, to set the captives free, and to cleanse every stain, no matter how deep.
Whether someone is a victim of incest or someone who has fallen into this sin and now lives in torment over what they've done, the blood of Jesus Christ still speaks a better word.
Healing, however, requires honesty.
It begins with bringing the sin into the light, confessing it before God, seeking counsel, and confronting the pain.
For victims, healing may take time.
But God promises to be close to the brokenhearted and to rescue those crushed in spirit.~Psalm 34:18.
Psalm 34:18 expresses that the Lord is close to those who are brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit, highlighting God's compassion and support during times of sorrow. This verse reassures that God understands and cares for our pain.
For offenders who are truly repentant, forgiveness is possible.
But repentance must be genuine, accompanied by accountability, humility, and a willingness to surrender completely to God's restoring power.
The family is a sacred creation of the Lord.
It was meant to reflect God's love, order, and holiness.
Incest destroys that reflection and leaves behind spiritual wreckage.
But God is in the business of rebuilding what was destroyed.
He can restore what sin has shattered.
He can purify what was defiled and He can bring beauty even from the ashes of unspeakable pain.
If you've been affected by this sin in any way, whether directly or through someone you love, know that you are not forgotten.
Your story matters.
Your pain matters.
And more importantly, your healing matters to God.
Do not carry the weight of this alone.
Turn to Jesus Christ.
Let Jesus Christ wash over you with His mercy.
Wrap you in His love and lead you into a future filled with hope, purity, and new beginnings.
7. Sin number seven, bestiality.
Bestiality is one of the most shocking and repulsive sins described in scripture.
It refers to the act of engaging in sexual relations between a human being and an animal.
A behavior that not only degrades the dignity of humanity but also perverts the divine order of creation.
In our modern era many believe that such acts are no longer common or even possible.
Yet, both scripture and reality remind us that when human beings depart from God's truth, there is no limit to how far depravity can go.
The word of God does not remain silent on this issue.
In fact, he speaks with unmistakable clarity.
In Exodus 22:19, it is written, "Anyone who has sexual relations with an animal must be put to death."
This wasn't just a civil penalty.
It was a divine declaration of the seriousness of this act.
In Leviticus 18:23, the warning is even more vivid.
Do not have sexual relations with an animal and defile yourself with it. A woman must not present herself to an animal to have sexual relations with it. That is a perversion.
These laws were given not to be harsh, but to preserve the sacredness of human identity and to guard against spiritual corruption.
God created human beings in his image, distinct from all other forms of life.
In Genesis 1:27, we read, "So God created mankind in his own image. In the image of God, he created them. Male and female, He created them.
There is an intentional design and a holy purpose in humanity's creation.
When a person crosses the boundary between human and animal in a sexual way, it is not simply an immoral act.
It is a full rejection of God's design.
It is a descent into chaos, a rebellion that shatters the image of God within us.
Bestiality is more than an isolated behavior.
It is a sign of extreme spiritual decay.
When people turn their backs on God, their sense of morality becomes twisted.
Apostle Paul speaks about this in Romans 1:24:28, describing a society that having rejected God becomes darkened in its thinking, given over to dishonorable passions, and engaged in unnatural behaviors.
While this passage doesn't specifically mention beastiality, it clearly outlines the progression of sin.
Rebellion leads to confusion and confusion leads to corruption.
Historical records show that in certain ancient cultures, particularly in pagan religions, bestiality was not only practiced but sometimes ritualized.
In places like Canaan, Egypt, and Babylon, acts of sexual depravity were often performed as offerings to false gods.
Archaeological findings and historical writings confirm that in some fertility cults, both men and women engaged in sexual acts with animals in the hope of gaining favor, power, or prosperity.
These sexual acts were not seen as perverse in those cultures, but in the eyes of the living God, they were detestable.
And He warned Israel never to imitate the nations that practiced them.
In Leviticus 20:15 -16, God commands that both the person and the animal involved in such acts be put to death, declaring the act to be perversion and defilement.
This language goes beyond the physical.
It speaks of a spiritual pollution that affects not just the individual but the community and the land itself.
These passages reveal the seriousness with which God views this sin.
And they show us that His laws are not random.
They are meant to preserve holiness, identity, and the sanctity of creation.
Today, though rarely discussed, bestiality still occurs in secret, hidden behind closed doors or accessed through dark corners of the internet.
Its existence is often dismissed or denied because of the sheer discomfort it causes.
But silence about sin does not remove its presence, and pretending it doesn't exist does not erase its consequences.
The human heart when left without God is capable of great darkness.
But even in this the gospel still speaks.
Even here the blood of Jesus Christ is powerful enough to cleanse and redeem.
While bestiality represents one of the darkest extremes of sexual sin, there is no sin too vile that the cross of Christ cannot cover.
In Luke 19:10, Jesus said, "The Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.
He did not come for those who had it all together. He came for the broken, the defiled, the enslaved, the guilty.
He came to redeem what others had thrown away and to restore what seemed hopeless.
Luke 19:10 states, "For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost," highlighting Jesus' mission to help those who are spiritually lost or in need of redemption.
For someone who has been involved in this sin, the first step is confession and true repentance.
It may require counseling, spiritual deliverance, and accountability, but healing is possible.
God can take the most corrupted soul and make it pure.
Only God can rebuild a person's dignity, renew their mind, and restore their purpose.
Psalm 51:10 cries out, "Create in me a clean heart, oh God, and renew a right spirit within me."
That is the prayer of someone who longs to be whole again.
And God is always ready to answer that prayer.
For those who have been impacted by this incest sin, whether directly or indirectly, you need to know this.
You are not beyond redemption.
The enemy may whisper shame, fear, or worthlessness.
But the voice of God calls you beloved, forgiven, and made new.
The cross of Jesus is where shame goes to die, and grace begins to live.
Beastiality is not just a crime against the body.
It is a distortion of the soul.
But God is not afraid of the darkness.
He enters it, speaks light into it, and calls us out.
No matter how far you've fallen, no matter how twisted your path has become, there is still hope.
There is still time.
There is still mercy.
Come to the cross.
Lay everything at the feet of Jesus.
Let him cleanse what you thought was beyond healing.
Let him speak truth where lies have lived.
Let him restore your humanity, your identity, and your dignity.
Because in Christ, even the most shattered lives can be made whole again.
We've now walked through the seven sexual sins that God's word strongly warns us about.
Fornication, adultery, unchecked lust, homosexuality, prostitution, and sexual immorality, incest, and bestiality.
Each one of these transgressions is more than just an act.
They are distortions of God's sacred design for sexuality.
A design that was meant to reflect holiness, worthlessness.
But the voice of God calls you beloved, forgiven, and made new.
The cross of Jesus Christ is where shame goes to die, and grace begins to live.
Beastiality is not just a crime against the body.
It is a distortion of the soul.
But God is not afraid of the darkness.
He enters it, speaks light into it, and calls us out.
No matter how far you've fallen, no matter how twisted your path has become, there is still hope.
There is still time.
There is still mercy.
Come to the cross of Jesus Christ.
Lay everything at the feet of Jesus.
Let Him cleanse what you thought was beyond healing.
Let Him speak truth where lies have lived.
Let Him restore your humanity, your identity, and your dignity.
Because in Christ Jesus, even the most shattered lives can be made whole again.
We've now walked through the seven sexual sins that God's word strongly warns us about.
Fornication, adultery, unchecked lust, homosexuality, prostitution, and sexual immorality, incest, and bestiality.
Each one of these transgressions is more than just an act. They are distortions of God's sacred design for sexuality.
A design that was meant to reflect holiness, covenant, intimacy, and the beauty of purity between a man and a woman in a lifelong union under His blessing. One man, one woman.
The enemy of your soul wants to convince you that these sins are harmless, that they're natural, that they're simply expressions of love or personal freedom.
But what the devil calls freedom, the Bible calls chains.
And what the world celebrates as progress, God identifies as rebellion.
These are not outdated moral rules.
They are warnings from a loving Father who knows the devastating cost of sin and desires to protect his children from destruction.
Romans 6:23 says it plainly, "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."
The road of sin always leads to death.
Death of intimacy, death of peace, death of identity, and ultimately eternal separation from God.
But that verse doesn't end with death.
It continues with a promise.
Life eternal, full, and free, offered through Jesus Christ.
You might be asking yourself right now, is there hope for me?
Maybe you found yourself entangled in one or more of these sins.
Maybe you carry shame from your past.
Or maybe you're currently living in something you know is not right.
Let me tell you this.
The fact that you're still reading and listening right now is not an accident.
This message found you because God is reaching out to you.
He's not here to crush you.
He's here to redeem you.
God doesn't reveal sin to humiliate you.
He reveals it so he can heal you.
He confronts what's killing you so he can bring you back to life.
Throughout scripture, we see Jesus Christ extending mercy to people who were caught in their worst moments.
Adulterers, prostitutes, the sexually broken.
Not once did Jesus Christ push them away.
Instead, he offered grace, truth, and the invitation to start over.
But grace is not automatic.
It requires response.
It requires humility, repentance, and surrender.
The door to freedom is wide open.
But you have to walk through it.
You have to say, "'I've had enough of living in darkness. I want the light."
And if that's your desire today, then I want to lead you in a prayer, not a formula, but a sincere conversation between you and the One who made you.
Now, if you're ready to take that step and invite Jesus Christ to cleanse your heart and restore your life, pray these words with me, not with fear, but with faith.
🙏
Lord Jesus, I come before you today with a heavy heart.
I recognize that I have sinned. I've walked down paths that have separated me from your presence.
I've believed lies. I've acted in ways that dishonor you. And I've tried to fill the emptiness in my heart with things that only left me more broken. But today, I choose to turn away from sin and run toward you. I ask you to forgive me, not because l deserve it, but because you promised you would. Wash me clean with your precious blood. Renew my mind. Heal my wounds. Break every chain that holds me back from walking in purity and freedom. Today I surrender my life to you. Be my savior. Be my Lord. Be the one who defines my identity, my future, and my desires. Help me to live in holiness, not by my own strength, but through the power of your Spirit. Thank you for loving me when I am unlovable. Thank you for offering me a new beginning. From this day forward, I choose to walk with You step by step, no matter the cost. In your holy name, Jesus, I pray. Amen.
If you prayed that prayer with a sincere heart, then let me be the first to say,"Welcome home."
The Bible says in Luke 15:7 that there is more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over 99 righteous people who don't need to.
Right now, angels are rejoicing because you chose life, freedom, and truth.
This isn't the end of your story. It's the beginning of a new chapter.
There will still be challenges, but you are not alone.
God walks with you.
His spirit lives in you.
And we here at Walking with God are committed to equipping you with content that nourishes your faith and helps you grow closer to him every day.
So, what's next?
Keep walking.
Keep learning.
Keep choosing truth.
Surround yourself with God's word.
Seek out a Christ-centered community.
And most importantly, don't look back.
The sins that once held you captive no longer define you.
You are a child of God, forgiven, free, and called to live a life that brings Him glory.
Maybe they're stuck in a cycle of sin.
Maybe they've lost hope.
Maybe they've never heard that they can be forgiven.
You could be the one God uses to change their life.
Thank you for visiting.
Thank you for having the courage to face the truth.
And remember, no matter how far you've fallen, God's grace reaches farther.
Keep walking, keep believing, and never forget there is power, healing, and victory in the name of Jesus.
*Notes: Incest between Ham and his mother, Mrs Noah.
Of NOAH'S LINEAGE and THE SIN OF HAM...and THE GIANTS
1.) "Bro. Gan, I read in (xxxx) and the brother said that Enoch was the last of the pure seed firstborn. But I cannot accept that. I know that it was Noah, just like you do. But can you enlighten me a little further on the genealogical lineage? Please also enlighten more about Ham's sin. I don't understand why Noah had to curse Canaan."
2.) "...the giants were destroyed during the Flood, then how did the giants appear again after the Flood?"
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Of NOAH'S LINEAGE...
Let's look at the genealogy in Genesis 5 and prove some facts.
LIST OF THE PURE SETHIC FIRSTBORN
ADAM and Eve =====> ABEL (murdered by Cain)
\\
``===> SETH + Sister
ENOS + Sethic wife
CAINAN + Sethic wife
MAHALALEEL + Sethic wife
JARED + Sethic wife
ENOCH + Sethic wife
METHUSELAH + Sethic wife
LAMECH + Sethic wife
Last =======> NOAH + Cainic wife or Hybrid wife
of the \\
Pure Sethic ``===> 3 sons -- mixed seeds -- HYBRIDS -- Japheth, Ham, Shem
Firstborn "These are the three sons of Noah: and of them was the whole earth overspread" (Gen.9:19)
1) Since all the Adamic firstborn were mentioned up to Noah, we can be very sure that, except for Noah, their wives were of their own blood line (Seth's). However, many of the other sons and daughters of each firstborn had become fallen sons and daughters of God. For anyone to simply say that Enoch (or anyone for that matter except Noah) was the last of the pure seed, I can only say the person is only presuming, he has no Scriptural facts. He does not know what he is saying. First of all, a genealogical record is similar to a family tree. It will show its offshoot as long as it is genetically feeding on the same sap of life, that is, a direct descendant of Seth who bore the image and likeness of Adam (Gen.5:3). As long as Seth's descendant of firstborn marries within the Sethic race, the next firstborn (offshoot) will have his name in the family tree. But if this firstborn marries outside the family race, his firstborn will never be listed in the family tree as the sap of life is no longer the same kind.
Notice what Moses wrote: "And Noah was five hundred years old: and Noah begat Shem, Ham, and Japheth" (Gen.5:32). Why did Moses write it that way unlike what he wrote of those others before Noah? Also, why was the name of Noah's firstborn mentioned last and not first? It cannot be so difficult for us to see that there was then a change in the "sap of life" for God had Moses wrote: "These are the three sons of Noah: and of them was the whole earth overspread" (Gen.9:19). And later in the Book of Acts were written this that God "...hath MADE OF ONE BLOOD (that is, the one blood line [kinship, descent] from Noah and his wife) ALL NATIONS OF MEN FOR TO DWELL ON ALL THE FACE OF THE EARTH..." (Acts 17:26).
2) Hybridization causes genetic disturbances. Notice that every firstborn Sethite from Adam to Lamech gave birth to sons and daughters. That shows that all of them married a pure seed (Sethic) woman. But it was not so with Noah. He had only sons. This proves that his wife was not a pure seed (Sethic) woman.
3) "Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God" (Gen.6:9b). This verse tells us the kind of person that Noah was. No wonder "Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord" (Genesis 6:8). [Please consult Strong's Concordance, 2580 for the word "grace". "Grace" in Hebrew is "chen", meaning graciousness, kindness, favor, pleasant, precious, well-favoured, from 2603, "chanan", to stoop in kindness to an inferior; to favor, bestow; to implore.] Not only was he a just (righteous) man, but he was also perfect, and He walked with God. The word "perfect" used in this verse is translated from the Hebrew word "tamim" which means "without blemish" in terms of breed or pedigree. Hence, the Scriptures clearly show us that Noah was a "pure breed" Sethites, and not a hybrid.
I have been asked this question: "If Noah was a pure seed, and he knowing the will of God concerning mixed marriages, why did he not marry a pure seed like the rest of the other sons of God?" The one who asked me this question believed that Enoch was the last of the pure seed. But he himself was unable to answer his own question as to why Enoch did not marry a pure seed. Such a question is irrelevant and quite silly. If Noah did take a pure seed and all his descendants had the same revelation to also take pure seed to wife (throughout all generations), then we would have a race of pure Sethic people on the earth today as all the Serpent seeds were destroyed in the Flood. And with only Sethic people on earth, there would not have been wickedness, evil, etc. manifesting on the earth today. But did it happen that way? If not, why not?
As sin had already entered the human race in the garden of Eden, pure seeds or not, mankind did continue to commit sins or make wrong choices. We see "that the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose" (Gen.6:). These were pure seeds. They knew the will of God concerning mixed marriages. Yet, they mixed married. So the question, "Why did they mix marry?" is irrelevant and silly. Just as the Fall of mankind did not catch God by surprise, the same is also true in Noah taking a seed not of his own race (cf. Rom.8:20).

Of THE SIN OF HAM...
GENESIS 9:18-27
GEN 9:18 And the sons of Noah, that went forth of the ark, were Shem, and Ham, and Japheth: and Ham is the father of Canaan.
19 These are the three sons of Noah: and of them was the whole earth overspread.
20 And Noah began to be an husbandman, and he planted a vineyard:
21 And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered within his tent.
22 And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without.
23 And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it upon both their shoulders, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces were backward, and they saw not their father's nakedness.
24 And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him.
25 And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren.
26 And he said, Blessed be the LORD God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
27 God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
These ten verses of Scriptures deal with the sin of Ham. Notice that the first of the ten verses begins with "And the sons of Noah, that went forth of the ark, were Shem, and Ham, and Japheth:" plus, an emphasis on Ham being the father of Canaan, "and Ham is the father of Canaan." Why such an emphasis? The same emphasis is repeated in the fifth statement (verse 22). Why?
Why did Noah curse
Canaan? Why not Ham’s other sons? Does it justify Noah to curse Canaan if Canaan was the seed of Ham and his wife (Mrs. Ham)? Should not Ham be the one cursed instead? For a curse to be justifiable, Noah should either have cursed Ham's eyes because he ogled at his nakedness, or cursed his brain (mental faculty) for he made light of his nakedness. And, if Ham had forced himself upon Noah when Noah was drunk, then a curse upon Ham's reproductive organ would be justified. Remember the Word says: "And if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe" (Exod.21:23-25).
So, why Canaan? When God emphatically mentioned the name of Canaan in connection with Ham’s sin, in Gen.9:22, "And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without" and in Gen.9:18, "And the sons of Noah, that went forth of the ark, were Shem, and Ham, and Japheth: and Ham is the father of Canaan", He calls our attention to Canaan . God calls to our attention that Canaan was a really bad seed produced out of Ham's shameful act of sin ("uncovering...saw the nakedness of his father") – sin of an unholy union. Canaan was a seed not of Ham and his wife (Mrs. Ham) but of Ham and his mother (Mrs. Noah). The incestuous act brought forth that seed – Canaan. And Canaan brought forth GIANTS, this side of the flood (Gen.10:15-19). He was an accursed seed, just as Cain was a bad seed. Hence, Noah was justified in cursing Canaan. It could not be any plainer. This shows that Ham's sin was not something else, like making light of Noah's nakedness. (Notice that Mrs. Noah did not bear any more children for Noah after her incestuous act with Ham which resulted in the birth of Canaan.)
Those who could not see, or do not want to believe, the incestuous act in the sin of Ham have tried to disprove it by saying that words and meaning of words would have changed with time. An example given is the word used for sexual relationship. The word "knew" (in Gen.4:1, "And Adam knew Eve his wife…") was later changed to "went in unto" (Gen.16:4, "And he went in unto Hagar,...") and again later to "lay with" (Gen.19:33, "And they made their father drink wine that night: and the firstborn went in, and lay with her father;..."). This argument is to do away that the words "uncovered…saw the nakedness of his father" in Gen.9:21-22 are not the same as written in the laws found in Leviticus 18 and 20. It argues that those words written about the event in Genesis have not the same meaning as found in the laws in Leviticus as they are some 800 years apart. O foolishness! Who wrote the Book of Genesis? Who wrote the Book of Leviticus? Was it not Moses? And when did he write them? Think. (The Pentateuch was written by Moses after the Exodus of the children of Israel and before their entering the Promised Land. It covers some more than 2500 years of events, from Creation till the author's death.) And did Moses have one meaning for using those words when he wrote Genesis and another meaning when he wrote Leviticus?
Now, could anyone after Moses (after his writings of the Pentateuch) used the word "knew" to denote the same thing what he wrote at the beginning in Gen.4:1, "And Adam knew Eve his wife…"? Can a person write "And So-and-so knew his wife…" since Moses had changed to "lay with" in the later part of his writings? And if any person used it, say, a few hundred years later, would the word "knew" have changed its meaning? What about the other terms "went into" and "lay with", if someone should use them hundreds of years later, would the meanings have also changed then?
Apparently not! Check out these verses written by other men of God after Moses’ death:
JUDGES 11:38: And he said, Go. And he sent her away for two months: and she went with her companions, and bewailed her virginity upon the mountains.
39: And it came to pass at the end of two months, that she returned unto her father, who did with her according to his vow which he had vowed: and she knew no man. And it was a custom in Israel,
JUDGES 16:1: Then went Samson to Gaza, and saw there an harlot, and went in unto her.
JUDGES 19:25: But the men would not hearken to him: so the man took his concubine, and brought her forth unto them; and they knew her, and abused her all the night until the morning: and when the day began to spring, they let her go.
RUTH 4:13: So Boaz took Ruth, and she was his wife: and when he went in unto her, the LORD gave her conception, and she bare a son.
1 SAMUEL 1:19: And they rose up in the morning early, and worshipped before the LORD, and returned, and came to their house to Ramah: and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and the LORD remembered her.
1 SAMUEL 2:22: Now Eli was very old, and heard all that his sons did unto all Israel; and how they lay with the women that assembled at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
1 KINGS 1:4: And the damsel was very fair, and cherished the king, and ministered to him: but the king knew her not.
EZEKIEL 23:8: Neither left she her whoredoms brought from Egypt: for in her youth they lay with her, and they bruised the breasts of her virginity, and poured their whoredom upon her.
MATTHEW 1:25: And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.
Here are the rest found in Scriptures. 2 Sam.11:4; 12:24; 13:14; 16:22; Ezek.23:44.
So, if those different terms or words mean the same even after hundreds and thousands of years, how could one justify that the usage of words "uncovered…saw the nakedness of his father" in Gen.9:21-22 has not the same sense and meaning as used in Leviticus 18 and 20, especially when Genesis and Leviticus were written by Moses?
Different words maybe used to describe one particular thing/act/event. But those words would still be applicable to describe that particular thing/act/event after hundreds or thousands of years.
Finally, some people may feel that if both mother (Mrs. Noah) and son (Ham) had truly committed incest God would have killed them, but it’s only their presumption to try to do away with incest. That’s just what the denominations, who could not understand the Serpent Seed, said in the same manner about the Serpent and Eve. They are more correct, for the sex act was between a woman and a beast (of course, according to their understandings).
Other points of proofs are available in The Original Sin message found under [Appendix 6.]

THE GIANTS
GEN 6:1 Now it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth,...
4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.
5 And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
The Hebrew word for those giants which existed before and after the Flood is Nephilim. (Hebraic names that are related to it are Anakim and Rephaim.) Many theologians teach that these giants were offspring of certain fallen angelic beings who, somehow, were able to procreate through earthly women, when they either pressed themselves into men or became men. These theories came from some ancient writings which are not inspired Scriptures. But they certainly do make for some good science fiction stories.
The GIANTS before the Flood were a result of the INTERMARRIAGES between the two peoples of Cain and Seth. Note that not everyone born out of such wedlock were giants. This is true because no giant were born out of the union of Cain and his wife, who was his half sister (a daughter of Adam and Eve) and also of the union of Noah and his Cainic wife. But "it came to pass", most likely after the generation of Enos which saw evil men blasphemously invoked the Name of Yahweh upon their idols, that the genetic disturbances caused by a continuous intermingling of the two bloods produced many giants (and giantesses, of course). From the fifth to the seventh generations of Adam people, the earth would have had quite a great number of giants whose thoughts and imaginations were only evil continually. For that, God sent Enoch to prophesy against the wickedness of the inhabitants of the earth (cf. Jude 1:14). The wickedness did not abate. Finally, God said, "I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them" (Gen.6:7). Hence, the Flood was sent to destroy them all.
But how did the giants come to exist after the Flood?
As stated above, the giants were the descendants of Canaan, the son of Ham and his mother. Now, who is Mrs. Noah? She was actually Naamah, the sister of Tubal-Cain (Gen.4:22), by Zillah, the second wife of Lamech. (You may wonder how Naamah was the wife of Noah. A little study of the genealogies in the Bible will give you an understanding that whenever a woman's name is mentioned she must have a part in the history of mankind. Check it out for yourself.) Now, notice that Lamech first wife, Adah, had two sons. One was a shepherd and the other was a master musical craftsman. Why is there a need for the Scripture to make mention of them and of their trades? Here is the mystery: it tells us that Adah must be a Sethite. Jabal, the shepherd, took to Adah's genetic make-up, for the Sethites were mainly shepherds and dwelled in tents. Jubal, on the other hand, took to Lamech's genetic make-up, for the Canites were mainly inventors and instructors of every artificer, and dwelled in cities. Unlike Adah, Zillah was a Cainite.
Gen.10:15 And Canaan begat Sidon his firstborn, and Heth,
16 And the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgasite,
17 And the Hivite, and the Arkite, and the Sinite,
18 And the Arvadite, and the Zemarite, and the Hamathite: and afterward were the families of the Canaanites spread abroad.
19 And the border of the Canaanites was from Sidon, as thou comest to Gerar, unto Gaza; as thou goest, unto Sodom, and Gomorrah, and Admah, and Zeboim, even unto Lasha.
In the incestuous act of Ham and Mrs. Noah, the son that was born out of this unholy wedlock was Canaan. Canaan was not a giant. But being a bastard, he had a good dose of that wicked genetic make-up. And Noah cursed him. Canaan's descendants later migrated to dwell in the land that was named after him and, by and by, many giants were birthed among the different tribes of Canaanites. Later when Israel went to claim that land of Canaan for their inheritance, the Lord God commanded them to destroy every inhabitant of that land.
Today, no physical giant like those of old exists. What we do see are great mental and religious giants that oppose the Yahweh of Israel, the Almighty God of the Kingdom of Christ. It's the same spirit though. The mark of Cain is still here. (Click to read: The Mark of Cain & the Wicked Ones & RELIGO
