From AdelaideNow;
A RADICAL U.S. preacher, who is set to visit Adelaide, says young Christians should not kiss or cuddle before marriage because they will get carried away and end up having sex.
If you read the article and then the reader comments you will see a good picture of what the world thinks about the bible's message on sex and marriage.
The opinion of the news report is that the message this preacher has is shocking and radical. And, it is, to some degree. It is radical because it goes against what the world wants you to believe about marriage and sexuality.
The report quotes: "Sexual health experts say the abstinence message is a dangerous one, because it leaves young people without the education and confidence to deal with sexual issues."
This is rubbish! The people who disagree with the message of abstinence, do so because they disagree with God. The bible teaches that sexual health is remaining pure before marriage and keeping pure within marriage. The bible does, in fact, teach very clearly on sex between husband and wife - the book of the Song of Solomon is a clear example. The sexual issue that a believer must deal with is chastity before marriage. The bible is very clear - sex before marriage is absolutely not acceptable. There are no verses or chapters of the bible which say the opposite!
This is another reason why it is so dangerous for a believer to 'date' or 'be in a relationship' with a non-Christian. The world is teaching that it is good and correct to have sex, to kiss passionately, to touch, to fondle, before marriage. In fact, it is simply accepted by the world that these activities are what two people should do if they are in a relationship. But this is totally against what the bible says, and you cannot be following Jesus and growing as a Christian if you follow the world at the same time.
BTW, he's radical because he preaches from the bible.
