2 Corinthians 12:21.If you have committed adultery and really want to deal with it, you need to repent of your sin. Dealing with adultery is not hard, but you have to be willing to change. Thanks to Jesus Christ, He will take the punishment for all of our sins. All that is required of us is to repent with our heart. God will forgive us, teach us, and equip us so that we will never commit adultery again. All we have to do when dealing with adultery is repent in Godly sorrow and acknowledging with our heart that we have sinned against God (2 Corinthians 12:21, "And lest, when I come again, my God will humble me among you, and that I shall bewail many which have sinned already, and have not repented of the uncleanness and fornication and lasciviousness which they have committed”).

BIBLE SCRIPTURE: 2 Corinthians 12:21, "And lest, when I come again, my God will humble me among you, and that I shall bewail many which have sinned already, and have not repented of the uncleanness and fornication and lasciviousness which they have committed”).

Romans 13:9. When dealing with adultery you have to realize that adultery is lust, not love. From God's perspective, no one can say that they committed adultery out of love. The Bible defines love as unmerited favor. Adultery at best is a “you scratch my back, I’ll scratch your back” love. In the case of adultery, it is “you fulfill my lusts, and I will fulfill yours.” There is no unmerited love involved in adultery. Adultery shows no love for your neighbor. In an adulterous relationship, the adulterer is stealing and coveting their neighbor’s wife or husband. The Bible tells us to love all our neighbors equally. You are in conflict with Jesus’ commandment of loving your neighbor as yourself when you commit adultery with your neighbor’s wife or husband (Romans 13:9, “For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself”).

BIBLE SCRIPTURE: Romans 13:9, “For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.”

1 Corinthians 6:18. Every one of us is tempted by adultery at some point in our lives. Our flesh when left to its own devices will commit adultery. You must realize that the only way with dealing with adultery is to flee from it. Adultery starts in the heart, and must be conquered within our heart. When we come in contact with adulterous thoughts we must realize how much God hates adultery. We must realize that if we are joined in an adulterous relationship we cannot be joined in a relationship with God. We must flee these thoughts and take on the mind of Christ to avoid adultery (1 Corinthians 6:15-18, “Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid. What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh. But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit. Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.”).

Even though dealing with adultery starts with our thoughts, we must also avoid adultery physically by fleeing from any situation where we are tempted with adultery. This is what Joseph did in Egypt when his master’s wife tempted him with adultery. If you are overtly tempted by someone else to commit adultery, you must remove yourself physically from that person as soon as possible or you will soon become a willing victim of adultery (Genesis 39:12, “And she caught him by his garment, saying, Lie with me: and he left his garment in her hand, and fled, and got him out.“).

BIBLE SCRIPTURE: 1 Corinthians 6:18, "Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body."

Proverbs 6:29. Adultery is just like a kid playing with fire. Everyone in their heart of heart knows that adultery will not end well, but they are all caught up in the heat of the moment. With certainty adulterers will be burnt when they commit adultery. Everyone needs to realize that God will pronounce you guilty if you commit adultery (Proverbs 6:27-29, “Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned? Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned? So he that goeth in to his neighbour's wife; whosoever toucheth her shall not be innocent”).

BIBLE SCRIPTURE: Proverbs 6:29, "So he that goeth in to his neighbour's wife; whosoever toucheth her shall not be innocent."

2 Peter 2:9. If you are in right relationship with God through Jesus Christ, you will not be tempted to sin. An example of a sin is to commit adultery. You can only effectively deal with any sin like adultery when you are in right relationship with God. Only the Lord can deliver you out of temptation (2 Peter 2:9, “The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:”).

There is no adequate excuse when a person commits adultery or any sin. Saying the devil made me do, God tempted me, my partner in adultery made me do, or saying I cannot help myself, is no excuse. No matter what your excuse for adultery or any sin, God will judge you (James 1:13-15, “Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death”).

2 PETER 2 BIBLE SCRIPTURE: 2 Peter 2:9, “The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:”).

Romans 8:35. If you have the love of Christ in your heart, you will not be tempted to commit adultery. Nothing can separate us from the love of Christ if we truly have Christ in our heart. If we are filled with Christ we can endure all hardships and sexual temptations (Romans 8:35, "Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?").

BIBLE SCRIPTURE: Romans 8:35, "Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?").
