THE VALUE OF VIRGINITY

in #steemchurch6 years ago

Welcome!

Premarital sex can be seen as any intercourse before marriage. Why did God choose Mary as an instrument for accomplishing his mission of our salvation and redemption plan for us? It's because she was found pure, innocent, she abstained from any form of sexual contact and made a promise to herself to keep her virginity no matter what might come her way until her after marriage.

Our virginity is our pride, glory, honour and prestige. When we talk about keeping one's virginity our mind usually tell us that this topic is for women only but that's not truth, virginity is for everybody business, men included. Keeping our virginity and runing away from sex before marriage will benefit us spiritually and also help us prevent the following:

What a nicely written piece on an important yet least discussed and undervalued subject amongst the youths of today. However, God's word about sexual immorality is so clear and stern. (1 Cor 6:9-10)
