Many will no doubt turn to this section of this article first why? Because no subject generates as many questions and as much controversy- and confusion- as sex and morals. Morality, however, encompasses more that sexual behavior. For example, can you call some moral that lies and cheat? Or are there situations in which dishonesty is ok? Fortunately, the Bible gives us some direct and practical guidelines on these matters of morality.
If you love each other, is it all right? Or should you wait until you're married? I'm still a virgin. Is there something wrong with me? Questions like these abound among so many young partners before marriage.
Never the less, it is the exceptional young person who has not had sexual intercourse will experiment it before marriage. And why not? You may ask, after all, it is only natural to wasn't to feel loved. And when you're young your passions can be powerful to the point of distraction. Furthermore, there's the influence of your peers. They may tell you that premarital sex is fun and say that having sex proves your manhood or womanhood. Not wanting to be viewed as odd, you may feel under pressure to experience sexual relations. Contrary to popular opinion, not all are in a hurry to give up their virginity.
The after effect.
One possible after effect is the contracting of a sexually transmitted disease. Imagine the heartache if years later one learned that a sexual experience has caused irreversible damage, perhaps infertility or a serious health problem. You have to groan in your future when your flesh and your organism come to an end. Premarital sex also leads to illegitimacy, abortion and premature marriage, each with its painful consequences.
Guilt and Disappointment
Many people have further found premarital sex to be bitterly disappointing. The result? Feelings of guilt and diminished self respect. It is a big let down feeling of good or warrant of love as it was supposed to be. Rather the full realization of law wrong the act is will hit you. You will feel totally ashamed of yourself at your lack of self control. You'll come back to reality with a sickening thud.
The price of promiscuity
So many don't feel no guilt whatsoever about having relations, and so all out for sensual gratification, seeking sex with a verity of partners. They believe they are functioning with little purpose and self contentment.
The Morning After
Once a couple has had illicit relations they look at each other differently. A young man may find that his feelings for the young lady are not as intense as before, he may even find her less attractive. A young lady, on the other hand, may feel envied.
Abstain from illicit sexual intercourse.
The benefits of chastity, peace and self respect staying chaste, however, do more than help. You'll have peace of mind and self respect.
Building lasting intimacy
Set alone cannot forge a permanent relationship: neither can expressions of affection, such as kissing. When a couple spends their time lavishing affection on each other meaningful communication ceases. They may thus gloss over serious differences that can resurface after marriage.
In premarital relations, the emphasis is on self gratification, the physical aspects of sex. Mutual respect is undermined by uncontrolled passion. Once such selfish patterns are turned, they are hard to break and can eventually wreak havoc on relationship.
Those who wait until marriage also enjoy peace of mind knowing they are pleasing to God.
Stay Chaste!.
