Today's sermon ..

GLORY OF VIRGINITY :D

Sex within marriage is good .
Many people think that sex is dirty .
BUT ; God is the one who created sex .
He put it within boundaries . ( Within marriage )
Fornication is sex outside of marriage ( between unmarried people .)

US supreme court's definition of sex :
" A person engages in 'sexual relations ' when the person interntionally touch , either directly or through clothing , the genital area , anus , groin , breast , inner thigh or buttocks of any person with the intent to arouse or gratify the sexual arouse of a person "

1 john 2:16
" .... the craze for sex ... "

Sex outside marriage will only ;

1) Torture yourself mentally - Feel dirty and unclean
2)Break you emotionally - Feel Possessive and easily vunerable
3)Kill You spiritually - When you come to church , heart filled with guilt , cannot worship god , always have the lust of sex .
4) Endanger you physically - STD etc .

1 corinthians 6:16-18
Sexual sin is against your own body !
Sex is not just an odinary sin , it will change you if you don't repent .

How to stay PURE in Life

1. Maintain proper relationships with the opposite sex .

Don't get into a 'sexualised' environment .
Don't put yourself in a compromising position .
2 timothy 2:22
' Flee also youthful lusts ; but pursue righteousness , faith ,love , peace with thise who call on the lord our of a PURE HEART . '
Flee from temptation !
When it comes to being tempted , flee from it . Dont be a hero !
Pursue love ! Not LOVER !

2.Manage Your Mind

Proverbs 23:7
' For as he thinks in his heart ...'
James 1:14-16
"...When desire conceived , it gives birth to sin .."
Temptation is not a sin , but temptation can lead to sin .

Pornography
Once you watch it , you can't get the images out of your mind .
Your brain isn't like a hard disc that can be reformatted .
Practice Self-Sensorship !
Don't let it in if you don't want it in .
Cause once it's in , it won't can't come out .
Pornography put's images in your mind !
It's like worshipping idols , the pictures stay in your mind forever .
Exodus 20:4
" you shall not make for youself any image.. "
Pornography will destroy your marriage life
It corrupts your mind .

3.Make a commitment to god's standard of morality .

Hebrews 13:4
God makes and keeps a convenant .
Marriage , to god , is a covenant . It cannot be broken !
You got to preserve your virginiy .
Virginity is one thing you can give one time to one person in one lifetime !
It is the most precious thing !
When you get married , you EXCHANGE VIRGINITY .
Remember ; ' Save sex ' Not ' Safe Sex ' !
Say no to BRG ! It doesn't only apply to me ; I'm sure it applies to you too ! :D
