Sex is easy. Virginity is difficult.

Sex is easy. Virginity is difficult.
28/01/2010 12:18:00 PM, By Nick Pearson, ninemsn

Associate Producer with ninemsn has written an article with the above title. He writes of his own experience waiting until married to engage in sexual activity.

It is very subjective defence for sexual purity: “Virginity by choice only works if it is a choice you have made and have chosen to stick to. I made the choice because of my Christian faith. It’s a decision that I don’t expect many people to make, but it’s one I’m proud of.”

It’s an interesting twist to promote virginity as more difficult challenge than to actually ‘get laid’. I wonder whether the reverse psychology will encourage anyone to view sex differently? I wonder if Nick’s choice made because of his Christian faith and now publicesed choice will impact people to investigate why Christian faith does impact decisions and choices like this.

If you are wondering what the connection between God and sexuality is I ask you to WATCH THIS (it runs for 2mins 35secs)

Message & Audience #1: Dripping with Culture

Do you know people you are dripping with culture? But they happen to be immersed in the wrong kind of culture?

Immersionist | Pronunciation: \i-ˈmər-zhən, -shən -əst\ | Function: noun

1. A person who is so immersed in the world of their non-Christian friends that they are dripping with the sinful culture of the secular world.

2. They think career instead of Christ, they think porn instead of purity and they are filled more with alcholic spirits than allowing themselves to be filled with the Holy Spirit. They live more in obedience to their friends than to the grace of Jesus.

3. You often here them say ‘I love my non-Christian friend, I am the only Christian my friends know…’

4. They back up their lifestyle with: 1Cor. 9:22 “To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all men so that by all possible means I might save some.”
