Ok so since you looked you have to read...... How many of you guys want to maintain your purity? Well there's more too it then just saving yourself for your marriage.
Purity is based on your lifestyle so basicly.... If you go out and listen to The Black Eyed Peas and watch MTV then go to church with your hands in the air. Your leading a double life. Purity is about
what you say,
What you watch,
What you listen to,
Who you hang out with,Who you Date,and Even what you wear.
I go into stores and I see these clothes and they get smaller and smaller every year! Whats up with that? We have fallen into the works of the world.All of us have a tendency to listen to what people say on Tv,in the music,on the radio,ect.
People look around! It's on the internet,tv,in music,in schools,and on the radio. We can't listen to this world!and another thing about purity... I hate the fact that if a girl accidentally makes a mistake and has sex with a guy then her reputation is destroyed.But if a guy does it's no big deal..... Something wrong there right? It's just as important for the guy to be as pure,then it is for the girl to be.Guys I'm sorry that you have no control over whats on the internet or whats on the tv. But it's just as easy to change the channel or look away.....I know for a fact that any girl would also respect you a whole lot more if you do.I also know that guys make mistakes too. And God will definately forgive you if you really mean that your sorry. If you go out and party and get drunk one night and afterwards you say "God,I'm sorry I made a mistake.yeah yeah w/e I know it was wrong. I won't do it again".Then the next day you go out and repeat the same thing over and over again........then your not sorry.If you learn from your mistakes and you know that you should change then God is gonna forgive you. No matter what You have done or how many mistakes you have made.
Purity- This day in age it's not getting any easier to maintain a pure lifestyle,and this is only the beginning.
Broken Hearts- God didn't create us to have broken hearts, He wanted our hearts to be made whole and to stay whole.He doesn't want us giving little pieces of our hearts away.If you do then what is gonna be left for your future husband or wife?
I see alot of this generation and our hearts are being broken over and over again.Because we think it's what we're supposed to go through it and everyone does but thats not true! Yeah we might all have had or have a broken heart but that doesn't mean it's right.
I also see alot of teens or adults that want to know God and want to get to know him but they are completely dead (spiritually). It's not that they don't wanna be close to God, it's just that they feel like they can't.
Maintaining Purity..... It's not an easy thing to do but if you wanna live your life the way God wants us to then we're gonna have to try.........
