I'm 29 years old and by God's grace I have saved myself and will continue to do so until marriage!
Andy Flores keep going strong Andy!
Dont give up
Me too
😄
Congrats !
Same age as you, Andy, and I applaud you! We can do it!
Please hold on to that gift. For it is surely one you cannot get back. I'm born again 10+ yrs strong and it gets hard. But what's disappointing is how Christian's I personally know are sexually active. Hold on to your personal conviction and continue to honor God
"This looks so..."
"STOP don't touch me there this is my no no square"
I was laughing but it’s so cleaver

That was weird
Lol. I have replayed the part many times. It was just so cute. Haha.
After 38 years of marriage, my biggest regret is that my wife was a virgin and I was not. I rushed into the what the world pushes and came out of it missing the mark of what Love Truly Is! But God gave me such a gift of Grace through her, being totally honest, even though it hurt her with the knowledge. She still chose me to be her husband and I thank God everyday for her. Thank You Guyz for all you do.
That’s a loving woman
This is so heartwarming 💕😭
This is beautiful.

I'm glad I'm not alone. Nowadays saving yourself is considered weird, but fornication gets you high fives.
You are never alone! ❤ Just rememver Elijah in the Bible thinking the same thing and God told him there were 900 more like him out there, just that he didn't know 😊
@SoBeautiful SoReal Thanks, but I'm a guy. lol
"Fornication"
It was that way back in the 90's too.

I'm saving myself for the future. I'm just 23. Do not settle for less. We all deserve the best. :) God bless us all.
amen sis
Shai I’m 15 and I’m saving myself for marriage. I have made a promise too God and I feel like if I were to ever break that I wouldn’t feel good and I would feel like I went against my promise and went against God
@@nicole963 Hi Nicole! I'm hoping for the best. Always remember your worth and How God sees you. We all deserve the best. :)
Hi or you single 😍😍🌷🌷❤❤
I’m 23 as well and i’ve been single all my life I haven’t had my first kiss or bf and I’m committing my life to God and save my body till marriage
Whenever i meet a guy and tells him im saving myself until marriage he just disapears... And everyone keeps telling me im weird and closed off and that i need to chill ... Im an old school girl and dreams of a decent man who will respect my decision and be my first and last person. Im 27 and didnt meet him yet. Im still standing my ground and trying not to be influenced by societies judgments about me which sometimes can be burden.
Ikram Baouchouch them leaving us God’s way of protecting you 🙏🏽 thankful you don’t end up wasting your time with people who don’t respect your boundaries. Stay strong sister 💪🏽🙏🏽
God bless Nate and Sutton. You both inspire me. Thank you for being an example. Id
Same here, saving myself. Am a guy from India and in India it's not weird about this but unless you are not from major cities of the country and am not, that helped me I guess ☺️ Have Faith everyone does't know the trick to just disappear.
Is 25 too young for you, like what are your standards in terms of your ideal type of man? Aside from the fact that he need to be a believer and a virgin too?☺️
Youre not weird, youre unique, pure and special. Youre normal, the people who say to you that youre weird, thats not true. They are weird, because they dont want to understand you or listen to you. Saving yourself is good. If someone loves you, he needs to proof that by not dissepearing, but he needs to proof that by waiting till marriage. You go girl!
That a man disappears because a woman didnt have sex is weird. Why? Because maybe they were only looking for women like them:sex-addict people.
I’m so glad I found you guys. I’m 15 and I want to save myself for marriage. I haven’t had a boyfriend yet and hearing all of this is really encouraging
Stick with it girl! So much false pressure going around in your age group, continue to not buy into the hype. God bless.
snYp keys Trust me, the temptation to have sex is just as high for girls as it is for boys - girls probably aren’t so vocal about it.
But it’s definitely worth it to wait, that way you know that you are marrying somebody because you genuinely love them, not because you care about their body. There’s plenty of time to have sex, and sex is great and healthy for a relationship of course, but it’s great to have it with the person whom you’re going to spend the rest of your life with.
Keep fighting the temptation!
I’m 18 and still going strong. The best advice I can give you is don’t be alone with a guy in a room because you have to be really strong to fight that. I almost lost it before from cuddling with a guy but I really just felt ashamed when God passed through my head and I fought off the urge.
Same, I'm a virgin and haven't had a boyfriend.
I am a virgin too and I am trying to save myself for marriage this video helped me a lot . I hope God will strengthen me and help me thought this journey and also help all of u who are planning to save yourself for marriage.
As a Muslim I respect you a lot I never see videos like this.. I'm impressed !!!
Yasmin Yasmin thank you Yasmin we appreciate that!
@@user-jy7yn1ro8j no we as muslims have our own god and believes. muslims do not believe of the bible. RESPECT OUR BELIEVES & CULTURE
@@user-jy7yn1ro8j you clearly dont respect our god...
dilara karaman girl are you okay? We as Muslims believe in the Bible and Jesus peace be upon him. Why are you saying that and confusing people?
M you are absolutely right the prophet Jesus has taught us so much
I'm 32 with 4 children and never married. I am waiting for marriage before I am intimate with my future husband. I made mistakes in the past, but now know truth. I'm waiting for the eye rolls in the dating scene, but I am confident God will send me my husband he had meant for me. 3 years is nothing compared to actually saving yourself completely, so MUCH love and respect for those who have had respected God's word❤❤
+Dana Tanner- I am a 29 year old woman, and saving myself for my future husband
@@seniorqueen08 That is amazing❤❤❤
The ones who know how important it is won't roll their eyes! Don't lose hope!
Good for you. I’m divorced with two kids and am 9 years chaste. God’s timing is perfect.
Dana Tanner that’s amazing! Good for you! 🙏🏽
I can attest to this. I did not save myself for marriage and deeply, deeply regret it. I know I am missing out on the blessings in that area. If you are a virgin, please please stay one until marriage. And if you've messed up, don't think you should still continue in the act because you've made mistakes- stop it now and you'll thank yourself later! People respect those who don't follow the crowd and stand up for what they believe in. Have confidence in yourself knowing you've had the strength to abstain, praise God.
Well said , bravo
Well said! I am not Christian, but I respect Christian values. I'm waiting for my husband and feel very proud of myself for going against the crowd, and I'm glad that I'll have only shared myself with him, and I won't be haunted by past relationships. Very excited for my future.
I am a Born Again Christian and yes I am proud that I am a virgin. Also, I haven't had any boyfriend since the day I was born and I am turning 20 this year. All for the glory of God😊 I am waiting for my God's will. I am saving everything for the glory of God, for myself, and for my husband.
**I wrote this comment 2 years ago, I'm turning 22 this year, still a virgin. This is still my fave testimony about saving yourself for marriage
**I'm 25 this year and still a virgin. Thank You LORD 🥹❤️

"The number one reason that we wanted to save ourselves for marriage was to obey God."
I'm out of words.
Why, it's called being respectful to God and being obedient to God because he created sex.
@ Thati Mokoena No. The Bible isn’t a sexual rulebook. And it’s full of contradictions when it comes to sex. Look at the story of Ruth. Absolute certainty isn’t granted to us. I think, for some Christians, speaking incessantly about sexual morals allows them to assert a position of moral superiority. They get to promote their own brand of righteousness at the expense of someone else’s. If you saved yourself for marriage and it worked for you, that’s great. But I find all these comments entreating people to SAVE THEMSELVES really disturbing. Also, I hate the way this guy obsesses over wanting a virgin. A virgin bride. This idea of “purity” is so gross. It perpetuates a lot of problematic societal notions regarding the “value” of female virgins. (Not male virgins btw). Virginity isn’t a commodity. It’s a sexist concept. Do what works for you, but I find his obsession (and many of these comments) really unsettling.
@@twhite2702 bible may not be a sex book, but it does have sex in it and God's sexual ethics. We are called to OBEY God in ALL of our ways. God created sex, and lay down the commandments of how we can honor him in that department. He's not some God who wants to prevent you from enjoying it or experiencing it. He want you to do it the right way. the way that it is intended. And honestly, the sheer amount of people inside and outside of the church who have sinned in this department, and have come out on the other side saying they regret what they did, is more than enough evidence for me that God's way is the best way.
I saved myself for my husband and I’m now 51 . I have 6 children and I tell my children my love story and we ( my husband and i ) show them through the love we still have after 34 years of marriage that it makes a stronger connection and that because I saved myself my husband respects me and knows I’m only for him. I have no one to compare him to and I only love him and think of him with all my heart.
My wife and I did the same! I believe God has blessed us immensely because we chose to honor him in our dating life :-)

@@nateandsutton

J's Revenge Gaming amen!! The lord Jesus is our blessing. It is not what we do but what Christ’s does in us.
@@whit6079 True! He has given us to grace needed to honor him in our marriage too! Thanks for the reminder
Amundsons amen. Yes he is the grace in us. People think it is what we are doing, but it is what the spirit of Jesus is doing in us. He is the law. If we try to stay pure we fail. But if we are gaining Christ every moment we can turn away from what the enemy feds us daily. and We are more aware of the spiritual war in our minds. He is the overcomer in us. And the blessing is him..not what we do. The lord loves us. This is fellowship. Uplifting and enjoying him.... god is love, Jesus is grace and Holy Spirit is fellowship. Amen 🙏
I love this!! My boyfriend & I are waiting as well! It’s not easy but it’s possible with God in the center of it all! You’ve got a new subscriber now 😊
Jessica Olivia welcome! Thanks for following along with us!
Jessica Olivia > you literally have me and my moms name💕 God bless you sis ✨hope you have a fantastic day! Jesus Christ loves you 💕✨❤️
What type of church do you go to Jessica? Are there many other women there that are saving themselves for marriage? I commend your effort.
It is so worth it and is possible if you set up guard rails like they say! My husband and I met in 6th grade, started dating in 10th grade, but we wanted to wait until after college to get married. We dated for 8 and a half years before getting married and still waited for our wedding night. There is so much to be built in a relationship that is not physical. Learn how to respect him and communicate with him in this precious time you have together before marriage!
I didn't grow up in church and made a lot of mistakes concerning sex before marriage. I became a Christian at age 19 and am blessed to be married to the love of my life for almost 4 years! My husband was raised in church and was a virgin on our wedding day. The first time we kissed our even held hands was after we were pronounced husband and wife! I truly feel that God has honored our decision to obey His Word and wait till marriage! Even though we are far from perfection as individuals and as a couple, my husband is my best friend and we have such a blast in our marriage! Thank you guys for sharing your story and promoting abstinence till marriage 👍😊 There really does need to be more content like this on every social media platform!
Christine Vialpando that’s amazing! Happy for you two! 🧡 God is good!
Hi Christine, I have a question regarding your response, did you and your husband talk about not kissing before marriage and were you put off by it? if yes, what was the turning point for you?
@@FyaccPersonally, I was not turned off by it, I was completely for it. Maybe, (mostly) because I knew that even one kiss or touch could lead to so much more 😕. As far as the kissing and physical touching (holding hands, hugging, etc..) for us, it was something that we both had made up in our minds as individuals before we even met. I knew that I wanted a Godly Man and if he really loved me he would respect my boundaries and want to protect the integrity of our relationship, and for my husband, he wanted the same in a women. It was important for me, because as I stated in my first comment, I made a lot of mistakes concerning sex outside of marriage before giving my life to Christ. Any relationship I had before was always based on sex first, then trying to build a relationship, which always ended in heartache. Also, My husband and were both very familiar with the Word of God that says:
" ... It is good for a man not to touch a woman." (1 Corinthians 7:1-2). My husband did grow up in church and very conservative, so the concept of kissing or touching a girl was so foreign to him, It even took him some time after we were married not to jump anytime I would try to massage his shoulders or hold his hand, lol! But I wouldn't have it any other way because I know if we was faithful to me before he even knew me, he has self control to continue to stay faithful to our marriage vows!
Of course, it didn't take him THAT long to get used to the massages or holding hands, I just over exaggerate 😁
I will say this, our whole becoming best friends, dating, courtship, and engagement lasted lasted 3 months before we were married (met June 5, 2015, married September 13, 2015💞😁) I think some people make the mistake of having these long, drawn out courtships and then long drawn out engagements and leaves both people with more time for temptation to arise. On that note though, I wouldn't advise getting married just to be able to have sex. Marriage is work and takes work on three parts, the husband, wife and God. Sorry for the long response, I had a lot to say, I guess, lol 😆
@@stine0203 Thank you so much for this reply! it means a lot to me and looks to me as a sign from God, although to you it might be just a reply..Thank you so much and God bless you ❤️
That is SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
me: not a virgin
also me: watching a video about saving myself for marriage
what a day lol
Claudia, you may not be a virgin, but you can practice chastity. If you honor God's will with your body ( which is the Temple of the Holy Spirit) and your heart and mind, God will honor your obedience. ❤
@@kingshounds Woow thank you ! Definitely helps one be better .
Claudia Fuentes you cant change the past but you can change the future God loves you so much Trust in him Jesus died for are sins on the cross he was Buried and he rose again the third day as recorded in the scriptures. Claudia Jesus loves you so much I just want you to know that.
M Hi I don’t live in Brazil I live in the United States 🙂
M nah The last name is Italian I’m half Italian and Puerto Rican. And funny thing about the body of Christ I didn’t comment cause she is Brazilian I commented because God created all of us that he so loved the world that he sent Jesus his only begotten Son to die for are sins on the cross, that he was buried, and he rose again the third day according to the scriptures. 🙂

Bruh 😂
Im 31 years old guy single and still a virgin Love your channel, From South Africa ❤❤❤
I’m 23 and still a virgin. I have always wanted to save myself for marriage. But I’ve been doubting that lately cause it seems like people can’t wait. This video is so encouraging to wait tho. I have this mindset that has made me keep it for so long and that’s “if someone really loves me then they can wait for when I’m ready.” My generation is all about hookups. But I find sex to be something to cherish.
If he can't wait, he doesn't deserve you. Because He should lead you to honour God with your body not lead you to dishonour God's temple which is your body. You don't just want a boyfriend, remember? You want a husband.
How's it going, sis? It's been a year since you made this comment. How are you?
@@hannahonovwakpor6316 I’m good! Still single but it’s honestly been for the best. I’m honestly just trying to fall in love with myself all over again. It’s been a rough few years so I’m trying to put the pieces back together and to just love life as it is ya know?
@@haileyspear9503 yeah. That's a good decision. Something my friend told me that got me thinking was 1 Corinth.7:34
There is difference also between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.
1 Corinthians 7:34 KJV
bible.com/bible/1/1co.7.34.KJV
This made me question what I was doing with my singleness. Was I living as a single lady or as a human yearning for companionship all day long from another person, when I have the Lord with me all day long?
You're being really sex negative.
Awesome! My husband and I saved ourselves for marriage too. We also saved our first kiss for our wedding day. It was a beautiful day, we just celebrated our 12 year wedding anniversary :)
Friend of Holy Spirit wow that's so incredible! Good on y'all!!
That's cutee!!! Congratulations! 😊😊😊😊
Nate and Sutton thank you!! Jesus gets all the glory ❤️
Jada Patterson thank you 😁❤️
And I'll do the exact same thing
It's wonderful to keep yourself wholly for marriage.
I love this video because I feel like social media always is showing the opposite of this lifestyle. I also think this lifestyle help you have a way better marriage.
Culture has definitely become such that it can seem to be 'wrong' to want to abstain, but thankfully Jesus didn't tell us to follow society and the way others do things; He asked us to follow Him! You may be cast out by the majority of people in this world - not always their purposeful intention but by the natural course of those who don't believe in Jesus' principles trying to force you in line with their ideals so that you feel like you 'belong' - but never remove your gaze from The Lord. In this society we step through the lies of the enemy unaffected because of HIS strength within us, so never fear and keep your head held high in the presence of His glorious Name. Have a wonderful day and know that HE loves you more than you imagine. xx
Iconic Tea So true
All the statistics agree that this type of marriage lead to the least divorce rates by far
This video was so helpful! I’m 18 and going to college next year, but I’ve decided to save sex till marriage. I have had so many concerns about telling future partners or not being able to follow through and this helped a lot!
Charlotte Lee so happy to hear! 😁
They said something so awesome that I used as well growing up and that’s say it with confidence and be confident in your decision!!! The guys that aren’t worthy of you will fall through and that right one is just around the corner and Once you find him, he’ll be on the same page and stick around forever 😙
are b j s the soutions
I'm a muslim and I've realized how common values we share. Especially about this issue. Why hate one another while we share many common values and always try to be a good person? Thanks for couraging us with this video !
The greatest commandment in the Holy Bible is to LOVE one another. You will never find that in the Koran. What values are you talking about?
Jasmine J That is not the case. I’m afraid you’ve been misled by the media’s portrayal of Muslims as brutal savages. That is not Islam nor the peace in which we practice. The Quran says “None of you has faith until he loves for his brother or his neighbor what he loves for himself.” Moreover, “he who has killed one human has killed the whole of mankind”. The Quran does not allow the killing of a non-Muslim, the only reason allowed is during war time and even than women and children cannot be touched. In every religion there exists crazy people who do not follow the teachings of their religion. Muslims too also believe in Jesus and the love and compassion he taught although as a prophet and not as a God. There are many many similarities between the three major religions. I advise you to do some more research and think kindly of Muslims there are 1.8 billion of us in the world and how others views us can’t be decided by a news report regarding a couple of lunatics who call themselves Muslims.
@@salmaahmed2366 i'm not trying to be rude... But i seriously lost respect on islam after i started watching videos of apostate prophet... How can a prophet be so unholy? God is so holy and he will never ever say about an unholy man as the 'most perfect man alive'....
I hope you don’t mind, I’m actually Jewish, but this video really helped me! Thank you!
Taehyung’s NoseFreckle glad it helped you!!
@Hobi Mang Hello fellow ARMY! Jesus loves you so of course He would not 'mind' you wanting to honour your body as it was created! Abstinence until marriage should be a more culturally celebrated decision, but even though it sadly isn't, you will find it changing your life in more ways you can imagine right now. :)
@Oh yeah yeah What's your problem?
Amen!! You are apart of the body! Happy you are enjoying the lord ♥️
Oh yeah yeah back off
Im happy that I'm saving myself. It's not easy especially in High school but God is my helper
The best advice is don't start dating until you are of marrying age. It will make things much easier.
Thank you. You’ve answered all my questions. I’m turning 20 in a few months. I’ve always been proud about being a virgin though I’m still waiting to meet other people like me. As you know it’s not easy to find other young christian virgins in this day in age. It’s nice to hear a successful testimony from fellow believers. This video motivated me to continue my journey and honor god. 😀
Petronella 2 Sweet keep going strong!!
Capital God
It's funny you said that. My ex is virgin and this guy I was talking to is a virgin. So... yes there are virgins out here.
I will be 22 in a few months and let me tell you, I have no shame in declaring my respect for this temple of God, my body that has been gifted to me by my Creator Jesus Christ, and that has been made alive by The Holy Spirit, through abstinence and divergence from this sexually-charged and flesh-driven world we live in! I know it is incredibly hard at times, I totally understand that. But you are stronger than you know through the power and grace of The Lord - never stop fighting for HIS word and ways to be the centre of your entire life.
I'm with this girl for 6 weeks now, and i thank God on my bare knees for this girl. On our first date at the end we were walking through the town and i carefully started talking about sex and that i preferred a girl, who, like me, was stil a virgin. She then replied yes, she still was. Never even kissed someone, unlike me. I was so grateful! She is everything i looked for in a woman: smart, witty, measured, collected, sweet kind, polite, conservative christian, virgin. I thank God for that!
Wow so glad to hear this brother.
Good wishes for the future.
It’s been 4 years. Can we get a life update? Married yet? 😃
I’m cleansing my life to be Christ-centered by finding wholesome, clean youtubers. Thank you for being set apart from the world. It’s sad that it is so rare nowadays.
Hi ❤❤😍😍😍😍😍😍
My husband and I were both intimate with other people in prior relationships. Sadly, we wish we would have waited until we found each other. It’s our biggest regret. If you are still a virgin, do NOT cave in. The wait is worth it. Regret is never worth it :)
thelittlegypsy thank you for sharing! I pray people read this comment and you just might be able to change someone’s perspective 🙂
Why do you regret it tho. I am curious because on one side I really want to save it and on the other everyone is doing it and it seems casual and people say it feels good and its not a big deal. I dont get whats so big about sex.
boodoin red - its an emotional bond that creates problems if you don’t stay with that person long term afterwards. You exchange energy when you’re physical and it’s pieces of yourself you’ll never get back if the relationship ends in a breakup. I look back and think of the other 2 people I gave myself too and all the problems that came from not waiting.
@@GirlDo3 sex is emotional, mental and *spiritual* it's a really big deal.
Thanks
I'm 28, single and by God's grace I'm still a virgin saving myself for marriage. It's really hard sometimes, especially when majority of your friends are already married or going to get married and you're still waiting on the Lord...
I'm happy be hearing this. I just had the conversation with my boyfriend yesterday that I want to wait till marriage though we've been dating for 2 years. He never forced. He's the sweetest and he accepted to hop on this journey. I'm a Christian and I'm happy to be winning the war of adultery by remaining a virgin. I'm happy and even though he isn't a virgin. He respects me and I'm forever blessed. God is good. I'm 22 next month and I'm happy to see other people go through the same cause it's not COMMON in this day in age
Adeline Bultot very true! And that’s great for you! It’s awesome when a couple is on the same page. Makes it much easier :)
This is awesome! My husband and I also saved ourselves, and it's been awesome! Thank God!
Kristin B. Beautiful
My friends think I'm lame, it's encouraging hearing this! We can do this🙏
Not lame at all it's actually the opposite it protects you from diseases STDs and sicknesses that God warns us that will kill us he doesn't want to be harsh enough he wants to protect us
Amen
So happy I found this video! Me and my boyfriend, of almost 7 months, know we want to get married. We love spending alone time together, but is so difficult staying pure and having pure thoughts. We are both Christians and definitely want to wait till marriage, but have quickly learned that it is very difficult doing that when we love each other very much. We’ve talked about boundaries as well. I showed him this video and he loved it. It is very difficult to wait, but so worth it!!
Brittany Peters so glad to hear our video helped!
Just stop spending too much alone time together so that you can finally enjoy.
Why do I feel like you guys are gonna blow up and become very well known or “famous” very soon?
Haha we shall see what God has in store :)
The News UNIT Chill bro, they weren’t even bragging; simply encouraging fellow Christians to stay strong and provided a Godly example to follow. Where’s the shame in that? It’s biblical to build one another up in faith. Don’t be that guy that tears it down. God bless
@@nathanjeans9830 I agree with you, but I think they were trying (in perhaps not the most clear and gentle way) to offer a correction. I believe I understood them to mean: Instead of saying "revirginize" as a behavior modification to instead to use that opportunity for those who didn't wait to re-affirm them of the gospel. Just as virgins are often made fun of and shamed, so, too, might be those who have lost their virginities.
The News UNIT First off, let’s leave hyperboles and generalizations about the Christian faith at the door because that is totally uncalled for. Second, how is any of this bragging? The whole point of the message is to encourage people who are on the fence about saving themselves to not feel ashamed of their virginity. The marketing world is full of sexual propaganda because “sex sells”. This message is to show the other side of sex, how it’s meant to connect two souls rather than just give pleasure. Another thing, I don’t think you understand what the purpose of testimonies are. They aren’t meant to “brag about their righteousness” they are meant to show how following the teachings of Christ can have positive impacts on your life. They are meant to inspire others to follow Christ, not to shame anyone. Also, the only reason they mentioned revirginizing is because they are kind and not judgmental. They understand that it is rare for anyone to wait until marriage and they want to encourage others to commit themselves to abstinence - that it’s not too late to make the choice to save yourself for your future spouse. It makes me so sad to see how comments like this one seek to slander encouraging messages just because they want to prove their own bias.
Bobbb same!!
Someday I'm gonna do this kind of vid with my future husband 😊 I claim it in the name of Jesus😍
I am here for u
I am single

Sadly I am not a virgin, I wish I had waited, but I am "revirginizing" (haha) myself... with the blood of Jesus! Thank you for sharing your story in a vulnerable, yet entertaining, way! Now I set guardrails on the first date, too, & if the guy isn't okay with them, then I know he's not the one. Great advice in your video!
Melinda Faye amazing!!
There's no such thing as revirginizing. A woman is either a virgin or she is not. Once it's done it can not be undone. However you can still study the bible and pray to god to lead you in the right direction. Just don't buy into the 'born again virgin' hype.
Roxy Madison Amen! We have a loving Papa! I actually know of 2 women that repented after sexual sins & He restored their hymen for their honeymoon! So, He can do anything! I don't need that, but I believe it can happen.
I'm not ashamed of my testimony (the enemy would love me to be, but His love has set me free from all that), so I would never hide my past from my husband. Christ loves me in spite of my past, & I know my future husband will as well!!
Thank you for your kind words!
Melinda Faye I don’t believe the physical aspect of virginity, it’s not so black and white I don’t think. My hymen 100% broke when I was very young as I was a competitive gymnast, and it can also break with horse riding etc - definitely didn’t effect my spiritual virginity
Melinda Faye me and my boyfriend are attempting to do the same thing. We are struggling and want to do what is right in Gods eyes!! If you have any tips please let me know!
Great topic. I'm also saving myself for marriage. Love from South Africa 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦❤️

Samantha Gray wahoo! Thanks for following along with us! 💛
This gave me hope that they are still few people in this world living the life God wants.... Thanks for this video
I'm 22 and even now if and when I tell someone I'm a virgin they congratulate me for it.
Jasmine Yoder that’s awesome! 🙌🏽

It is encouraging that to see other people who value purity in our culture! This is NOT an easy thing to cling to! THANK YOU! ♥️
Hi
Single here
😍😍😍❤❤❤❤🌷🌷🌷
Some times I think that there is no one out there that is also keeping themselves for marriage. Thank you so much for the encouragement!
Or u marriad
❤❤😍😍🌷🌷
Am single
I'm 29 and still a very proud virgin. I'm not religious but I'm saving myself because I don't want to share that with anyone else but the person I marry. If I don't get married then I'll still stay a virgin. I just have very strong morals is the best way I can describe it :) I have had people say they respect it and then try to force me and I didn't give in. I think it's a special thing to have with someone, but that's just me. People take that kind of intimacy for granted. Thank you for the video :)
This is amazing to see. I remember being picked on and judged for my decisions regarding saving myself, which made me question my intentions and the purpose of waiting. However, this video was a great reminder of why saving myself is one of the best decisions I can make. Recently I have struggled with the thought that I will never find a good, Christian man who will be a leader in a relationship through Christ. This is the best reminder that if you continue your walk with God and stick to the goals you set for yourself, anything is possible and God will put the right people in your life in his perfect timing. Y'all are an amazing example of this and I am so glad God lead me to your channel. God will use you two in amazing ways! I can already see him touching people through this channel!
Hi
😍😍❤❤🌷🌷
Yes, I agree! I personally am not into the modern hookup culture, and even my friends that are... are extremely miserable on the inside. Like, people can do whatever they want... I don’t care, but for me personally I’m glad I waited for marriage.
I didn't obey God and got that sexual experience...which is useless, the only I had was a completely broken heart for a lot of years... I wish I had been obedient.. that would have saved me a LOT of emotional pain. 💔
You always have an option to not do it again, take care!
@Valeria Castro, I hope that your pain is being healed.
It's not yet too late Valerie! Cheer up, God is with you and will always be with you. Let Him and time heal you from all the brokenness you've been through. You're not alone. God bless you 🤗
@Valeria Castro I sense that you're really broken down. There is no pain like fornication pain. God disciplined me for fornication. It was horrible, hut eventually he brought me back to more normalcy. It took seven years, so don't think it strange if it seems way too long. God deals differently with each oerson, but just in case you think it's taking too long to feel normal, remember that it can take years. It seems hopeless, but it's not. Satan wants to keep you oppressed.
I don't want to sound trite or like Polly Anna, but learning about Christ from a really good pastor will help you more than you realize. God led me to such a pastor, and he can be heard anywhere in the world via an app.
The app is called "Way of Grace Bible Church." It has a burgundy and grey logo.It is available on PLAYSTORE or the APP STORE.
If you decide to download it, I recommend the series, entitled "The Samaritan Woman,2017." It is, by far, the most amazing teaching about how Christ relates to women specifically, people in general, and what identity He offers them. This series applies to every woman, of every background.
From what I can tell, this account records the longest conversation that Christ had with a woman in the Bible. The conversation was just the two of them. It was providential, (divinely provided) private, protected, and life-changing for her. It was truly PEHNOMENAL. I hope it will bless you. If you listen to it, I think you will be deeply blessed. Even though you are suffering under God's discipline, it IS His will for you to keep growing in biblical truth. Satan doesn't want you to know that, because the LESS you know of the Bible's truth, the more he can deceive you and keep you in bondage.
Dont be surprised if things seem to get WORSE while listening to this series. And even afterwards, because Satan hates Christians in a level that is humanly impossible to fully fathom. It REALLY IS that bad. but God is greater than Satan, and this can ONLY be learned through the biblical truth in the Bible. This is WHY he hates you reading it, and tries to make EVERYTHING else seem MORE interesting than the Bible, and he tells you that the BIBLE is too hard to understand. These are ALL LIES from the FOULEST PITS OF HELL!!!!!!!
After opening "Way of Grace Church" App,
Tap SERIES
Tap WOMEN'S THEOLOGY
Tap THE SAMARITAN WOMAN
SCROLL down to lesson 1. Listen and keep listening.
Please PRAY before each session and ask God to open up your understanding. Otherwise the information will be dead and useless.
I have prayed for you. Most importantly, if you are a true believer, Christ and the Holy Spirit are praying for you. That's an amazing reality that is so easy to forget. From your statement about disobeying God, it sounds like you are a true believer, but
only you can know from the Holy Spirt. No other human can confirm your salvation. Thst is why I said "if," because I have no power to confirm the salvation of any other human.
I hope this helps.
Additionally, if you go on Facebook, and search for Grace Bible Church of Hayward, and "like" it, you can listen to live church services via video, 11:20 a.m. Pacific Time, on Sunday, at 8:15 p.m. on Friday.
If you are reading this right noe on Sunday, November 10, 2019, you can go on Facebook, and listen now. The pastor is talking about women (Rebecca in the Bible) specifically, and all Christians in general.
May you know the Lord's mercy.
Valeria Castro but God forgives every sin and he will pour you a new heart ❤
I'm so glad I stumbled on this video. I am so proud to see people who are not afraid to stand firm on their Godly beliefs and remain unshakable in a very liberal world. This earned my subscription! ❤❤
Hi
How are you honey
😍😍😍😍😍😍❤❤❤❤🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷
I thank God so much that I'm still a 27yr old virgin. It takes the Power of the Blood Jesus and the help of the Holy Spirit to stay pure. I'm doing this for the Glory of God. I'm still waiting upon God to send the Right Perfect Man for me. I'll wait no matter how long it will take for the Glory of God.
OMG...I am not alone. I too am 27 and a virgin. Tbh, while temptation does come at times, having the right mindset and godly community around you helps a lot!
I'm 24, never had a boyfriend, haven't had my first kiss and i'm definitely planning to save myself for marriage. I know waiting for the one God has for me will be worth it 💕💕
Me too.
I love u u u
Really
I like u u u
Seriousely
Well you merry me i am single
💗💗💗💗💕💕💕💕💞💞💞❤❤❤😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍🌷🌷🌷
My husband and I waited till marriage and I am SO glad we did. Even though that night wasn't the best, just knowing it was both ours first time was so securing and there was no previous experiences to compare too. ♥️ So glad we waited
Natalie Tackett that’s amazing! So special for you two 🙏🏽
My husband and I saved ourselves for marriage too!💜
I love this and so happy I found your channel. I been a Christian for 22 years and that I wanted to save myself for marriage since I was a teenager. I'm 37 years old completely single, I am still a virgin and continuing to wait for marriage. I pray that the man God has for me is my perfect match, its all in God's timing not mine and that God will bring me a man who loves Jesus beyond anything and will live a holy life and be abstinent until marriage.
Not sure why this video popped up on my suggested feed, but I'm glad I watched. I get so tired of these videos because 90% of the time the people come across so arrogant and holier than thou.
I was one of the ones who didn't wait, though I knew what was right. And sadly that bad choice altered so much of every decision because I had been raised to believe that if you didn't wait, you were then damaged goods. The "good boys" wouldn't want a girl like me. The preacher boys, the missionaries... they only wanted perfect girls. And so I self destructed and in the end settled for the only man I ever thought would want me. We have been married 8 years now and have 5 kids together. By Gods grace and mercy we have both grown and God has given us love. But I want more than anything for girls especially to know that just because they didn't wait, doesn't mean they are worthless! God uses broken vessels every day. 1 mistake does not have to ruin the rest of your life. I wish someone would have told me
Well, imagine someone who kept her virginity and has been a straight A student just because her parents led her into believing these two qualities (as well as having a college degree at the right time) were the only things that would ever make her worthy of love. Any kind of love. Her parents' love, her teachers' respect and a future husband's love and respect. Imagine she lived what were supposed to be the best years of her youth acting not decent, but completely oblivious to her emotional and physical needs, pretty much like a castrated person, in order not to dissapoint, because a college degree wasn't there yet to give her the right to freedom. Imagine the chain of straight A's got broken at some point because exhaustion and hormones occurred and that's where extreme despair and feelings of total worthlessness burst out. Parents just put gas on fire. Imagine not being able to get the college degree the year you were supposed to graduate, because of total hopelessness. Imagine the oportunity of a relationship occurred, where the guy had no respect for virginity, but was quickly heading for a PhD. As he smelled terribly bad self-esteem he went on to emotionally abuse the girl and blackmail her into giving up her virginity, all on a very subtle level, while still claiming to be respectful of her principles until marriage. So as she was trying to work things out with her first real attempt at a relationship, her bad self esteem and her parents guiltying her academic inferiority, she was unable to understand how can finally having a relationship after twenty-something years of total loneliness hurt so bad!
Anyway, she got dumped like you throw some dirty rag, after a short period of time. He couldn't even humiliate her properly. Still the parents did not miss the opportunity of saying that it must have been her lack of a PhD that discouraged the nice hard-working guy from marrying her. Parents never met the guy, by the way. College was far from home. He made sure he didn't need to face anyone with authority in her life and offer explanations.
I came here from Sutton's dad's channel. Their family offers a good example of parenthood, especially for someone who has always tried to be a good christian, but who benefitted from ill family principles.
My point is... it's ok to feel frustrated. But it's also ok to be the first one who forgives oneself for being mislead by harmful education. You can't know it all from the beginning. If perfection can be achieved by some (without succumbing to pride, of course), it's finally fine by me, but I know so many people don't have the basic means of making it perfect in a beautiful, unstained marriage that starts at a perfectly youthful age.
And don't let your imperfections affect your self esteem and self love.
All the best!
Thanks 4 your honesty. I am sick of seeing online magazine articles by liberal publishers like Teen Allure, etc, telling teens how to have oral sex&how to get it on w/their boy friends. These magazines are trying to push underdeveloped immature children into adult decisions that carry lifelong consequences
mcneillmama50 completely agree! That’s why we all need to get out there and try to teach them otherwise🙏🏽🙏🏽
I’m 29 and my husband is 33, but we got married at 22 and 26. We waited for marriage, but I was a virgin and he was not. He had only been with one other person, but it meant everything to me that he committed himself to waiting until marriage and that we were able to successfully do it together. It was NOT easy as we were both very physically attracted to one another, and there were times that we didn’t put up “guardrails” as well as we should have, but we communicated throughout these times and committed to doing better. It was so worth the wait and we both agree that we’re very happy and satisfied with the sexual aspect of our marriage. We have learned and grown together since our wedding day, but it started out good and has only gotten better! I’m very encouraged to see others in this day and age still choosing to wait. And like she said, I’ve never had anyone look down on me or make fun of me for waiting. I’ve actually had the opposite response- people who have envied me and regretted not waiting. People who admired my choice and wish they had done the same. It’s never too late!
Oh yes, I remember you guys. You had a great wedding and the groom cried like a baby, so did the bride. I loved it. And brother you can dance boy!!
I’m 19, and I’ve decided to save myself for marriage now that I’ve started this relationship with God and becoming a Christian. I’m not ngl I’m scared that I won’t find a person with that mentality, specially in this “hookup culture”. But I trust God, and I just want him to lead my to his purpose for me. 🤍✝️
Thanks for the great video. My wife and I were 19 and 23 when we met and remained virgins until we married at 23 and 27. It was*very* difficult to wait, but we are so glad that we saved ourselves for each other and for the honeymoon. We've never once regretted not waiting.
i am Muslum .. and i am also saving myself for marriage for the grace of GOD
I'm 25 and I'm still saving myself for marriage bcz I believe that God has the nothing but the best for me. I beleive that my purity is my testimony from God
Hi
😍😍😍😍❤❤🌷🌷🌷🌷
Am single
With the number of guys affirming that they are saving themselves for their wives...I now realized there's hope for all ladies who thought this wasn't possible
Hi
❤❤❤❤😍😍
Thanks for the video guys. The guard rails are such a great idea. I am a virgin and I was feeling so ashamed because I'm 30 now. Never thought I'd get to this age not yet married. So this is so encouraging. Sutton you looking so beautiful by the way... You got that pregnancy glow girrrrl
Mimmmza aww thank you! Yes don't feel discouraged and keep that precious gift for someone someday they will be so glad you did!
Being a virgin is nothing to be ashamed of. There’s herpes, hiv, and all kinds of stuff out there that are more actually shameful
Never be ashamed of the plan God has for you. He loves you! Accept the season of your life you are in right now. A season can be a long time but in the end it contributes to the beautiful life you've led.
Needed to see this today. Y’alls story is impacting more people than you know 💛🔥
Megan Hopkins that is refreshing to hear! Our hope with this channel is to spread God’s love and truth around the world 🙏🏽💕
For those who are no longer virgins, I just wanna encourage you today and let you know that it’s never too late to start preserving yourself again. All you need to do is to give yourself some time in the presence of the Lord and just let Him detoxify you from your past, renew your mind with the Word of God, learn what a Godly relationship and marriage is supposed to be like and ultimately put your trust in the Lord and know the with Him all things are possible. This might be a very tough journey at the beginning but when you learn to surrender your emotions and sexual feelings to the Holy Spirit He comes in and gives you to strength to be patient and to overcome.💪🏾🔥♥️ I hope that someone will read this and be encouraged. 🙇🏾♀️. More grace to us all♥️♥️
First I want to say how much I admire you both for talking about subjects that are often difficult to discuss but need to be. Yes,, please continue to encourage people to save themselves for marriage. Maybe there could be a future ministry for you guys?
But, here is a reality that you may already know but if not definitely be aware. From my perspective, as a woman, we were not all blessed to have a loving father in our lives. This truth is so damaging to the point that many women seek love/sex too soon to fill that void. I wish I could fix those women's hearts but only God can. I was one of those women. I wasn't introduced to Jesus until I was 30. And learning about how much I was loved by Jesus changed me so much. I am married now but i still worry that if i was left single again, those old fears would return. The biggest being I am nothing without a man's love. Please pray for those who suffer from that longing to be loved but confuse it with sex.
I subscribed! I’m waiting until marriage and I can’t relate to most of the people the same age as me. I’m very lucky to have friends who have the same mentality but it’s really awesome to see a couple who lives out Chastity
Although I was not a virgin before marriage , my husband is my first and only partner .
This channel is JUST what TH-cam needs! A young adult couple talking about REAL and raw Christian questions. So helpful and keeps me in check and thinking!
A lot of people thinking saving sex is only hard for people who have already done it which is so not true. Of course the thought runs across my mind what if , because of what we see on social media and friends I have said but I really want to save it. Subscribing!!

I am 15 and turned fully to Christ this year. I really want to save myself for marriage and I am so glad these types of videos.
Makes me feel stronger and not give up to what the media tells me I should do :D
Keep going its encouraging to read this cuz I'm on the same track
Yesss, let’s do this together!! I’ll pray for us
I’m 23 and still single I haven’t had my first kiss or bf and I’m here to say I’m proud I’m saving myself till marriage and waiting for the right guy to come into my life
Same! I'm 25 😊
Rhea Gumboc woohoo!! 💯🙌🏻❤️
Appreciate this so much! & I couldn't help but notice Nate sounds like a youth pastor :)
I AM MUSLIM AND I ADMIRE YOU GUYS ::: WISH YOU THE BEST !!!
We have been married for 43 years and my husband has travelled a lot for work and I knew if he could wait with me, who he loved, he would not fall into temptation, I never had to worry when he travelled!!!
I’ve definitely gotten some weird/ negative responses for my decisions I’m glad you guys made this video ✝️💛
Well although I'm not married but I'm not a virgin also for my own reasons I wanted to experience sex (mind you though I'm 40 and just experienced it).you may want to get different friends if they're the once that are giving you the weird looks.

I am 30+ and still saving myself! Knowing what God's plans are for you and not entering into any and every relationship that comes knocking is very important. It preserves your heart from unnecessary heartbreaks too. Grace to everyone else holding on whether young or old.
You guys explained this beautifully! Thank you for the video. 🙏🏻 I think both believers AND nonbelievers need to watch this. God bless your beautiful souls :)
You made me feel so much better when you said, "It's never too late to recommit yourself" because I fell into a lot of sin especially sexual sin before I became a Christian and I've been committing myself to that since months before I accepted Jesus. Thank you so much!!
Thank you so much for motivating me this is so timely. Am not a virgin however been celibate for three years now. #waitingisthenewbae 😍😍.. just subscribed.
Highly Favoured welcome to the channel!!
Celibate 3 years also! Woo Hoo!

I recently found this channel♥️! So precious in a world that has not embraced our Lord! I wish I had listened to someone, ANYONE say such things back in the stone ages(lol) when I was young! Young people NEED to see that someone is waiting until marriage! God bless you both and your family!
I love this video, as a young Christian it is encouraging and helpful 😊

Dear Nate & Sutton I have watched many of your videos. Shirley & I were in the 6th & 7th grades together. I think all of our parents thought we would marry sometime. We saved ourselves for marriage and were married in 1959 This tells you I am nearly 85 yo. My sweet wife died in 2013. I now live with my younger daughter in Norman, OKLa We were married nearly 55 years. May you have much happiness and a long marriage.
I'm so glad I watched this video because my friends that are close to me keep denying the fact that I am capable of finding a guy who could be a virgin and we both could be the same. You've blessed my life with your video. I believe if I can save myself than there is a guy out there waiting for me too. I love God. Love you both. Thank you so much 💓
My hope is now restored! I got done watching a video about Paul and Morgan, and found out she didn’t wait until marriage. I’m waiting and I would want my future wife to as well. I’m only 17 and have a lot of time to find the one for me but it’s going to be harder because most people nowadays don’t wait and that’s what kills me. Even if she regrets her decision and is with God now, I still don’t want to be with her. I have my “standard” and I want to hold true to those. I’m not going to fall and just give in.
I am 21yrs old girl and i'm also saving myself for marriage. For me it's so difficult tho and i don't even have boyfriend at the moment but whenever i find someone i am really struggling with desire/passion and in those moments i need to turn to fasting and praying it's really tough.
Galatians 5:16 ESV
But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.
Well you 🌷🌹merry me🌹🌷
I love u forever ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Ilike u u really 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

I’ve watched this video for the 3rd time tonight. I thank YT to recommend this video. It’s been a month since I start questioning myself, if its worth it to guard my heart and wait for the right man. Thanks to this video bcs you reminded me what I prayed to the Lord when I was kid. I’m turning 22 yrs old soon and still no experience in dating and no bf since birth. It feels like all the things you both said are in my prayer since then. I love the fact that I am not the only one thinking in that way. I will continue to improve myself and continue to pray for the right man. 🥺
I decided to wait and I'm so happy I am I know God has the right person for me and God bless you both you two are so amazing 💯
It's so nice to hear from young people who saved themselves for marriage! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
ive been getting all these videos in my recommendation about god and it’s a sign omg
linnlinn fantage 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thank you so much Nate and Sutton, your testimony and experiences give me so much hope...you guys are a blessing to this generation....I pray that the Lord keeps on using you mightily to reach out many souls in Jesus’ name 🙏🏾♥️🌹
I like to watch the video like this that encourage me and all girls and boys around the world to save my self for marriage. I read from the book of Corinthians to make my self holy because it is The Holy Spirit's home. I hope this video reach all girls and boys around the world😊
Thanks for sharing the truth and encouraging people to obey God’s will. I pray the Lord continues to bless your marriage and that He will give you the wisdom and courage to rise your child for His glory!
Thank you so much for sharing the importance and the blessings of guard yourselves for marriage.
Maria Burgos 🧡🧡 thank you!
I'm soooooooooo proud of you guys and i wil be following you guys it is important to have God in your lives specially your marriage God bless
