The Recovery Under the Cross Midweek Meditation series on the 10 Commandments continues with the 6th Commandment: You shall not commit adultery.
 
The two most obvious ways in which the 6th Commandment is broken are spouses cheating on each other, or unmarried people fornicating. 
 
The 6th Commandment goes deeper than that. Jesus tells us in his Sermon on the Mount that anyone looking at a woman lustfully commits adultery in his heart. The same is true for women looking lustfully at men.
 
One way people look lustfully at someone is often done in secret with near anonymity by watching porn on the Internet. Porn addiction has become more common since the launch of the Internet. Some try to soften porn addiction by saying it's not infidelity, thus not adultery. This is the work of Satan who lies in order to get us to sin. According to Jesus, anyone looking lustfully commits adultery.
 
Thankfully, we have Jesus who paid for all of our sins - even the sins committed in our adulterous hearts. God has also provided people in our lives to help those caught up in porn addiction to break free from it.
 
Conquerors Through Christ has a wealth of resources for helping someone caught up in porn addiction.
