VIRGINITY AND CELIBACY
Being a virgin is not old fashioned, it’s godly. Celibacy is not impossible for nothing is impossible with God.
FAMILY FRIDAY
And the same man had four daughters, virgins, which did prophesy – Acts 21:9
The Early Church had virgins and celibate people, both male and female. They were Disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ who saw sex before marriage as fornication that will be punished with death in the Lake of Fire. They remained celibate until they got married.
Sexual immorality in our culture today is nothing new. The Early Church experienced it and yet their unmarried congregants were virgins or remained celibate. Being a virgin is not old fashioned, it’s godly. Celibacy is not impossible for nothing is impossible with God.
If you’re unmarried and are sexually active, it’s time to break that relationship off. It’s time to repent and do works that are in keeping with repentance. It’s time to live a life of purity. When the Lord Jesus Christ returns, He’s going to throw all fornicators in the Lake of Fire where there’ll be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
PRAYER
Father, in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. I pray that unmarried people in the Church may remain virgins and practice celibacy. May they not indulge in the sexual pollutions and perversions of this world. Amen.
