Journal of
Adolescent HealthVolume 26, Number 3 March 2000 Pages 213 - 225 Smart teens
don't have sex (or kiss much either)
EDITORIAL Hooray! A recent study and report proves
that teens who think - wait! Sex is God's wonderful gift to
us BUT reserved for our partner in MARRIAGE - not for
DATING! Studies show that teenagers loose respect for
themselves, others and stop doing well in school when they
give in to the lie that sex is okay before marriage. What's
even worse is that recent studies have shown that some
children as young as 10 may be having sex and ruining their
lives! That breaks my heart! If you have already done it or experimented with it... Stop now. God will forgive if you repent (realize it's wrong and decide to change) and ask his forgiveness. You can work to rebuild your reputation and your witness for Christ - it will take time. The longer you wait... the harder it will be to humble yourself to God's will for your life. Satan will try to convince you that it's too late, and that God won't forgive you! HA! Satan is a liar! God promised in, 1 John 1:9 " If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." Jesus Christ created you and He loves you and hates to see you hurt yourself. That's why He tells us the truth about what's right and what's wrong. And YES, it usually is very different from what you hear in school, on TV, in your favorite magazines, movies and songs. Do me a favor, if you don't know Jesus Christ as your friend and Savior, please read the Good News. |
