Introduction:
Hello, teens. Today we are going to talk about a topic that is very important but can be difficult to discuss – morality, waiting until marriage, and sin. We live in a world where sexual temptation is all around us. It can be hard to resist the urge to give in to our desires, but we know that God has a plan for us and that plan includes waiting until marriage. Let’s talk about how we can honor God in our relationships and stay true to his plan for us.
Body:
First, let’s talk about morality. What does it mean to be moral? It means doing what is right and following God’s commands. God has given us guidance in his word about how we should live our lives, and that includes our relationships. When we choose to engage in sexual activity before marriage, we are going against God’s plan for us. We are not only disobeying God, but we are also putting ourselves in a position where we may face consequences that can negatively impact our future relationships and potential marriage.
Secondly, why is waiting until marriage important? When we choose to wait, we are showing our love for God and our future spouse. We are honoring God with our bodies and showing respect for our future spouse by saving ourselves for them. Waiting until marriage also provides a strong foundation for our future relationships. It allows us to trust and love our future spouse without any past baggage that can come from sexual activity outside of marriage.
Lastly, let’s talk about sin. We know that we are all sinners and have fallen short of the glory of God. However, we also know that God’s grace and forgiveness are available to us through Jesus Christ. When we fall into temptation and sin, we can turn to God for forgiveness and strength to resist temptation in the future. It is important to remember that no sin is too big for God to forgive.
Conclusion:
In summary, as Christian teens, it is important for us to honor God in our relationships by being moral, waiting until marriage, and turning away from sin. Choosing to follow God’s plan for our lives may not always be easy, but we can trust in his goodness, grace, and forgiveness to help us make the right choices. Let us pray that God gives us the strength to live according to his word, and that we honor him in all aspects of our lives, including our relationships.
