1 Thessalonians 4:3-6

It is God’s will that you should be sanctified; that you should avoid sexual immorality; that each of you should learn to control his own body in away that is holy and honorable, not in passionate lust like the heathen, who do not know God; and that in this matter no one should wrong his brother or take advantage of him.

Avoid sexual immorality. Especially, don’t take sexual advantage of a brother or a sister. Napakadali kasing gamitin ang religiosity to take advantage of people. Halimbawa, nagpapa-counsel, mamaya hinihimas-himas na ng counselor. Inaalu-alo nang konti, tapos kalung-kalong na. Kung anu-ano na ang mga nangyayaring himala.

People who have problems are vulnerable. They tend to cling to you lalo at ikaw ang nakakatulong sa kanila. Para yang mga taong nalulunod. Kaya nga ang instruction sa mga lifesavers, sa likod lumapit pag may nalulunod para hindi ka mayakap. Ang tao kasing nalulunod, oras na lumapit ka, yayakap sayo, hindi ka na makalalangoy. Pareho na kayong malulunod. Minsan gayundin ang mga counselees. Makakita lang sila ng konting strength, konting pag-asa, konting care sayo ay bigla nang kakapit sayo. Ayaw ka nang bitawan. Pareho na kayo ngayong lulubog sa problema.

Kaya kung ikaw ay pastor, ina-avoid mo bilang counselor at teacher yung napakapersonal na mga situations even with counselees.

“Pastor, puede ho ba tayong mag-overnight prayer?”

“O sige, mag-overnight prayer tayo. Doon ka sa bahay mo, doon ako sa bahay ko and we will be one in spirit. Nasa silong na lang tayo ng iisang langit. Bakit kailangan pa tayong nasa isang kwarto? Ano ka, sinusuwerte?”

Yan ang attitude. Don’t take advantage of people.
