It’s going to be wonderful!
No guarantees—Feelings play a bigger part than you might think.
What are your views on sex?
What’s God’s view of sex? 15Don't
you realize that your bodies are actually parts of Christ? Should a man take his body, which belongs to Christ, and join it to a prostitute? Never! 16And don't you know that if a man joins himself to a prostitute, he becomes one body with her? For the Scriptures say, "The two are united into one."[4] 17But the person who is joined to the Lord becomes one spirit with him.
Remaining sexually pure doesn’t just mean saving sex for marriage, it includes: • • • •

In other words: MARRIAGE Genesis 2:24

Man + Woman • Sperm + Egg
Genesis 2 23 "At last!" Adam exclaimed. "She is part of my own flesh and bone! She will be called `woman,' because she was taken out of a man." 24This explains why a man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one. Sex is much more than just the next thing on from snogging. Sex is a very intimate act; you give yourself to another person. People find a real closeness a connection with the person that they’ve slept with. A great feeling if it’s your life long partner. Not so great if you’re one of many.

23% of teenagers lose their virginity under the age of 16 in the UK. 15% under 14 4% under 13
British Medical Journal Survey 1996 –1997 Year 9 Students Of those who had sex: 32% girls + 27% boys ‘Happened too early’ Those who exerted pressure for it to happen: HIGHER LEVELS OF REGRET.
16% in Holland
1/4 of them where drunk when it happened. 1/3 happened on a one night stand. Dr. Roger Ingham: Uni. of Southampton
If you think that there’s more pressure on you today than at any other time in history - check out the Corinthian society that Paul was writing to in 1 Corinthians 6: 9 - 20.
You know my heart: If he knows the thoughts of our heart. Should you be thinking or acting that way?
3VDOP We go astray: Being a Christian is about working through the desires that God has for you compared to what your desires are. 2 Timothy 2: 22
Run from anything that stimulates youthful lust. Follow anything that makes you want to do right. Pursue faith and love and peace, and enjoy the companionship of those who call on the Lord with pure hearts. I Promise: •
If you want to live the sexual life that God has for you - it may be easier with some encouragement.
•
Do you know a youth worker - friend to whom you could be accountable, who would help you remain true to what God wants for you? If yes why not ask them?
