Having Sex Before Marriage?
Sex saturates our culture. It now feels meaningless to many, even though it was once held sacred in marriage. While sex can offer momentary pleasure, sex outside marriage harms both individuals and society. So, how do you know what truly benefits you when it comes to sex?
God created sex for one man and one woman. He designed marriage as a covenant between them. (1 Corinthians 7:1-5) This covenant lets couples enjoy sex safely and securely. Consider the the heartache, unwanted soul ties, broken families, and fatherless homes that result when we ignore God’s design.
What do the stats say?
Studies confirm that multiple sexual partners before marriage reduce marriage quality. The Wheatley Institue and other research show lower relationship satisfaction, stability, sexual satisfaction, and emotional connection. Our culture urges you to experiement while single, promising sexual satisfaction in marriage. Yet, research contradicts that advice. When you share sexual intimacy outside marriage, you give a piece of yourself that belongs to your spouse. God’s design remains best.
It can be redeemed…
If you already have or are currently having sex outside of marriage, know that hope awaits in Christ. The Bible encourages us that “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.” (1 John 1:9) We serve a good God who wants to brings freedom in every aspect of our lives. We must only repent from our sin, surrender, and trust that His way is better.
