(no subject)
hey! im speaking again saturday and im talkin about tlw (true love waits) heres a PREVIEW of the notes i will b going over.. so hereya go enjoy!
"Believing that true love waits, I make a commitment to God, myself, my family, my friends, my future mate, and my future children to a lifetime of purity including sexual abstinence from this day until the day I enter a biblical marriage relationship."
2 Timothy 2:22 Flee the evil desires of youth, and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
sometimes as christians its not the ezist thing to do being pure.. and as teenagers there are hormones in us that are going crazy 24/7 lust is something every teenager if not every person in america in the worlddeals with. its all over media and internet t.v music. and i feel of all these music is the worst.. in rap songs the horrible message that it gives u i mean i could read thousands of songs about females bodys and how "hot" they are and how bad they want each other. its stressfull and frustrating. not listening to stuff and watching stuff and is something everyone deals with no matter what u say everyone deals with lust. but, there is a way out from all this frustration. calling on God and he will set u free from all temptations.
What if ...?
Some people have a past they wish they could erase. A lot of times, we do things we wish we could take back. You may have been involved in premarital sexual activity and wish you could blot it out of your past and be rid of all the memories. Whatever may have happened or whatever your sin, God offers second chances! His forgiveness is a gift. We don't deserve it, but He offers it to us anyway! That's called grace! See Ephesians 1:7 and Colossians 1:13-14.
2nd Virgnity
When you decide you want to stay sexually pure from this day forward, then you can experience a second virginity. This second virginity comes by asking for God's forgiveness through Jesus and by committing to stay sexually abstinent until marriage. Reclaiming your purity can give you a whole new outlook and freedom in your life. See 2 Corinthians 5:17 and Ephesians 4:21-24.
whats so great about making this pledge:
You are 100% guaranteed that you won't get pregnant.
It's a sure thing that you will stay STD-free!
You will be spared much emotional pain and heartache.
God will provide a way out from temptation 100% of the time.
You will have every opportunity to fulfill your dreams.
If you get married one day, you can present yourself pure to your mate.
You will be honoring God with your body, which is the temple of the Holy Spirit.
and that if anything is the # 1 reason to be pure
