[New post] Dear Church, Let’s talk Sexual Purity Tue, May 30, 2017 We are going to do the same thing as I can see why it wouldn't be a problem with me know what you think about this is the first time that I would love to see you soon as possible for a little bit more of an impact in the first time that I have a third party that WordPress.com ucheymalo posted: "I have been a Christian all my life, you know by virtue of being born a Christian.

I have been a believer for two years now; I just thought I should mention that. Now, from such a young age, my parents took me to Sunday School, Kids Bible Study, they had us (my sisters and I) watching Christian movies and cartoons. Literally everywhere we turned was The Word. Needless to say, the world was flashing itself before our eyes screaming, 'TRY ME! TRY ME!'. Consumption of what the world had to offer introduced me to this thing called SEX! Now up to this age, Church had never taught me about sex. Fast forward to when Church actually started teaching me about sex, I hated it! Don't get me wrong I did not hate the teachings in the Bible about sex, NO! I hated how we (particularly the female specie) were taught about sex. This is why I didn't like it, our (the female specie remember) virginity was oftenly equated to a fragile glass, a sealed envelope and sometimes a glass full of pure water.... As the lessons went on, the fragile glass would be tossed around vigorously with the aim of breaking it. The sealed envelope would move around to as everyone opened like an inch of it and a handful of sand or dirt would be added to the glassful of pure water. The whole point was how sexual encounters with various people defile you, that was fine. Then there was the dreaded question, "Wouldn't you want to give yourself to your husband whole? Not a broken glass nor a torn envelop or dirty water? " Dear Church, WHY? That sentence right there is why I hated the sex talks and I have reason to believe that sentence is why young people in churches are struggling with fornincation and other levels of sexual purity! Why does it have to be that I'll be a virgin to offer myself to another human being struggling with sin; just like me? Why does my virginity have to be equally proportional to offering myself whole to my husband? What if I am a virgin but God never called me for marriage? Is that wasted opportunity? Young people in churches arguing that since it's for the spouse (whom they don't even know about) it's just physical sexual purity. As long as sex has never reached the penetration point, they can do all other things that entails foreplay and sex and exclude the penetration bit of it. Doesn't the guys sexual purity matter too? Does he not have to keep himself for his wife? Dear Church, I choose to be sexually pure ;and not just physically sexual purity but all matters that entail sexual purity; not because of my future husband. He may be a beneficiary of it but he is not the sole reason I do it. I save myself for Christ. Because He paid for my sins at Calvary I shall honor him with my body and my virginity being part of my body. Because I am aware that whoever is in Christ is a new creation, that He has made me new, whole and complete in Him; because my body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, I have no business defiling this temple of God that He has entrusted me with. I choose sexual purity because I love God too much that I want to honor Him with every part of my body that includes being sexually pure and because of this, I choose to follow the teachings of Christ in His word The Bible regarding to sexual purity.
