The Stats on Prostitution

Prov 6:26 for a harlot may be hired for a loaf of bread, but an adulteress stalks a man’s very life.

Prov 23:27  (WEB) For a prostitute is a deep pit; and a wayward wife is a narrow well.
Prov 23:28 (RSV) She lies in wait like a robber and increases the faithless among men.

When a young disciple goes off on deployment or away to college and ‘suddenly’ appears to lose his faith, the first thing that I suspect is that he has been to a prostitute or committed acts of fornication.  Scriptures teach that she ‘increases the faithless among men’.   A man’s theology, his thoughts about God will change to match his morality.   He must do this to alleviate the guilt and shame… OR  he must repent.  The following article sent to me by Greg Ray highlights the global issues and challenge of prostitution.

Very interesting statistics from http://www.onlineschools.org/blog/stats-on-prostitution/
