When it seems like the world is saying it's "just sex" and that there is no sense in waiting until marriage, it can be hard to discern what to do as a Christian. Does the Bible really say to wait until marriage for sex? If so, how far is too far? What if I've already had sex but I'm not married yet?
Seeking the Kingdom of God is something we should do with all of our hearts and souls and minds since this world is not our home.
I began 2018 with one word...

I was crumpled in a ball by my nightstand, sobbing so hard it came in gasps. I couldn't see through the tears, and I didn't want to. I didn't know what I wanted. I didn't know who I was anymore. At the beginning it had all seemed to make sense: he liked me; he asked me out; he wanted to date me. But then... then he said my standards were too high. He said because I wouldn't kiss him (after barely getting to know him), he would leave me. And he did. I took him back. Now here I was, still a virgin, but an emotional wreck of who I'd been before. What happened to Purity Girl? I was the poster child for it. I wore the ring, I knew the rules, I wrote blog posts about it. This was supposed to be my area of expertise. How come it was so easy to compromise to a man who used my desire for affirmation to manipulate me? As I knelt there hunched over a tear-stained Psalm 51, I asked God: How could you ever forgive me of something I've done again and again? Can I ever be who I was before? Maybe you've asked those same questions. Today we're going to answer them with what God has revealed to us in His Word. He is the only one who can speak with authority on this subject. Since the beginning of the Other Virgin Diaries series, 60% of the emails I receive contain the above questions in some form. It's a pressing concern for many young Christians who have compromised purity (to any degree) and long for their relationship with God to be renewed. But in the midst of that hope, many of us doubt God's forgiveness or are unsure of what it looks like. Sin is sin: whether it be gossip, lying, pride or extramarital sex, all sin is breaking the law of God (1 John 3:4 "Sin is lawlessness"). Sin is offensive to God because God is holy and perfect (Is. 6:1-5). Because man chose to sin in the beginning of time (Genesis 3) all of us are born with a natural tendency toward sin and thus toward offending God (Romans 5:12). Sexual sin, however, is a different beast. Unlike other sins, sexual sin affects the body, emotions, mind, and spirit (1 Cor. 6:18). Sex was designed to be a thrilling experience in marriage, in which context the physical-emotional-spiritual connection is intense and fulfilling. But when removed from that context, sex has the power to twist our self-perception, spiral us into deeper sin, and most of all separate us spiritually from our pure relationship with God. God knows this danger, and therefore requires sex and the acts of foreplay leading to arousal as a part of marriage and nothing else. Having established this, what do we do? What do we do if we have transgressed God's law, offended God, and separated ourselves from a peaceful relationship with Him? Is there hope for those affected by the consequences of illicit sex? YES! There is hope! Below are the steps we take to know this forgiveness and walk as conquerors in the grace of God.

In these people, I saw that only a life in which one gives up physical pleasure and lives to satisfy God is a life of meaning and value, and I saw that my own pursuit for wealth and material things was so selfish, mean and degrading.
