Sexual immorality is something we should not be talking or gossiping about in the fellowship of True Believers. If this sin occurs within the Church it needs to be dealt with in a proper way. If we have any struggles in the area of sexual immorality we need to be restored in our relationship with God first before making any further decisions about our life and future. Normally this restoration process includes another mature True Believer who knows all the facts and is helping us.
