Some terms to understand

                     to this Site which tells the story of God's amazing Grace, Goodness and Greatness as we weave through the stories of Sex, Sin and the Sanctuary. Here you'd see how God's Mercy and his Grace Moves in Messy Places and how all who come unto him, he does not cast them out.  

The site addresses the question of how God, a thrice Holy God, maintains His sanctity and sanity while dealing with weak, fragile men—through their stumbles and fumbles, mumbles and grumbles —whom He created in His own image and likeness. Some clues are found in Psalm 103: "He knows the material he's working with." (KJV)

This site takes a peek behind the veil and examines how God manages, manouvers, manipiulates and masterminds, menacing situations that mankind has deliberately or mistakingly got themselves into, in order to save them and bring them safely home to Glory.

God's Mercy, His Grace, His Justice among his other characteristics like Love, Holiness and Kindness, are soverignly jiggled in order to bring salvation to mankind. It is a fascinating story of how God, from generation to generation, dealt with mankind of various backgrounds, cultures beliefs, practices, and persuasions in order to bring them to his desired haven. Come with me and let's enjoy this intriguing journey.

Examples

 

How did God manage to make Jacob, a schemer, swindler and supplanter into a sanctified scion or a spiritual standard bearer?

How did David, who despite his military prowess was a deliberate sex maniac, who could not keep his hands off women, how did he become a man after God's own heart, or even Paul, a professed perpetrator of evil and persecutor of priests, prophets, pastors, and patriarchs,  how did he become a patron saint?

Come with me and let's wade or way through God's incomparable grace as we confirm that it's not by might nor by power, it is not of him willeth nor of him that runneth  but by God who showeth mercy; it's not bu might nor by power but by my spirit saith the Lord.

Unfolding the Divine Plan Through Sexual Ethics, Sin and Sanctity

 

​For many, the Bible reads like a contradiction—full of puzzling allowances, shifting judgments, and moral tensions that seem irreconcilable. Critics point to David’s indulgences, Solomon’s extravagances, and Rehoboam’s indiscretions, asking: “How could such men be called chosen?” Others struggle to reconcile the swift punishments of Nadab and Abihu with the leniency shown to others who broke the Law with impunity.

But to hold onto one slice of God’s mountain, like the blind men of Industan clutching at an elephant’s tail or tusk, is to miss the grandeur of the landscape. Scripture is not a static rulebook—it is a living revelation, incrementally unfolding a divine objective: to bring many sons unto glory (Hebrews 2:10).

From Eden’s implicit moral compass to Sinai’s codified Law, from the tangled romances of patriarchs to Paul’s clarion call for sanctification—the Bible charts a dynamic trajectory of sexual ethics, covenantal priorities, and redemptive patience. What seems like nonsense becomes narrative genius when viewed through the lens of progressive revelation. Each divine “adjustment” is not contradiction, but choreography.

At this site, we will explore how sexual behavior and sin, —Pre-Law, Peri-Law, and Post-Law—serves as both mirror and metaphor for human sanctity. We will trace how God’s response to sin shifts—not because He changes, but because we do. Like a skilled tutor, He meets us at our level, while guiding us toward maturity.

So this journey is not simply about rules, but about relationship. Not merely condemnation, but construction. Not isolated verses, but integrated vistas. And when we finally stand atop the theological mountain and look back across its layered slopes, the “nonsense” clears up. The dish is cooked. The glory is revealed

Part 2 The Desert Law, Lust and Longing

Divine Overlook

Pre Law Peri Law and Posts Law refers to the different periods when God dealt with the people of the earth.

Pre-Law is the period from Adam to Moses before the Law was given. Because the Law of God was given by Moses.  

Peri Law refers to the period of time when God gave Moses the Law up to John the Baptist.  The Law and the Prophets were until John.  The Law was given by Moses but Grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.

Post Law - Is the period of Grace and truth. So Jacob lived Pre-Law, Nadab and Abihu lived Peri_Law and Paul lived Post Law.
