A program in sexual morality that fails to teach young people to live the Gospel without compromise is unworthy of being taught.

A young man lacking [g]sense,
8 Passing through the street near her corner;
And he [h]takes the way to her house,
9 In the twilight, in the [i]evening,
In the [j]middle of the night and in the darkness.

10 And behold, a woman comes to meet him,
Dressed as a harlot and cunning of heart.
11 She is boisterous and rebellious,
Her feet do not remain at home;
12 She is now in the streets, now in the squares,
And lurks by every corner.

13 So she seizes him and kisses him
[k]And with a brazen face she says to him:
14 “[l]I was due to offer peace offerings;
Today I have paid my vows.
15 “Therefore I have come out to meet you,
To seek your presence earnestly, and I have found you.

16 “I have spread my couch with coverings,
With colored linens of Egypt.
17 “I have sprinkled my bed
With myrrh, aloes and cinnamon.
18 “Come, let us drink our fill of love until morning;
Let us delight ourselves with caresses.

19 “For [m]my husband is not at home,
He has gone on a long journey;
20 He has taken a bag of money [n]with him,
At the full moon he will come home.”

21 With her many persuasions she entices him;
With her [o]flattering lips she seduces him.
22 Suddenly he follows her
As an ox goes to the slaughter,
Or as [p]one in fetters to the discipline of a fool,
23 Until an arrow pierces through his liver;

25 Do not let your heart turn aside to her ways,
Do not stray into her paths.
26 For many are the [q]victims she has cast down,
And numerous are all her slain.
27 Her house is the way to Sheol,
Descending to the chambers of death.

This is appalling albeit not shocking.

Exactly what makes this a “Church” program? How is this any different than what they teach in the public schools?

Peter warned that false teachers would use sensuality to corrupt the flock and that their motive would be greed.

"But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction. And many will follow their sensuality, and because of them the way of truth will be blasphemed. And in their greed they will exploit you with false words."
2 Peter 2:1-3
