  • Christians are always taught to save sex for marriage. But why? Is sex before marriage a sin? What is the purpose of sex? How far is too far in a dating relationship? Today, Jon tackles all of these questions in an effort to heighten our view of sex as yet another way of connecting with and worshipping God.

    We need to stop listening to others about sex, and start listening to what the Bible says.

    Growing up in an extremely conservative baptist church the topic was NEVER brought up even when my parents gave me "the talk" when I was 14 they could hardly do so without blushing and mumbling. It made sex seem shameful and wrong rather than something beautiful that God created and intended for the boundaries of marriage. Thus leading me to find answers for myself through ungodly friends and the internet. Sadly I believe this is more common then you think inside of Christian circles, I counseled at a Christian camp over the summer and this was a topic that was brought up a lot by my teen girl campers, they all want the answers they're to afraid to ask their parents. So case and point SEX IS NOT BAD when done in the way God intended and created it for inside of marriage

    You explain this in such a "not so awkward" way, which is what I love. Almost everyone around me is having sex before marriage, and I used to too. I learned from many mistakes that just because someone is willing to have sex with you doesn't mean they are willing to love you and stay with you. As a person who isn't a virgin, I almost feel as if the temptation of having sex before marriage is stronger because 1.) you miss not just the physical feeling of connection but that emotional connection and trust, & 2.) just like before, it feels like many people around you are doing it. I cried when the guy I trusted with my body left me. And that's why I'm saving myself, even if I'm not a virgin, for marriage. That pain of giving someone a piece of you and them walking away is so strong and I don't wish that pain upon anyone. It is less painful to wait than it is having that person you trusted with your whole body leave.

    i love your way of spreading gods word!! i think a video about homosexuality/lgbt/gender identities would interest a lot of people too... i think it's pretty controversial but even more important to talk about today. greetings from germany:))

    Not just saying this because you used the word a few times, but there is such a WISDOM in how you explained this in a less "churchy" way. And like you said some churches don't even talk about this at all. Sharing!

  • @lazellecronje

    Amen. I agree 100% with everything you said and usually in the more conservative setting people don't like to discuss the topic of sex and this just leaves the younger generation curious and often gets them in "trouble". Good job on the message Jon. Sharing your vid!

    Thanks for talking so openly about such topic in a gentle way without making it awkward or making anyone feel under pressure. It sure was very eye-opening and wise Jon. Greetings from Tunisia.

    This is my first ever comment on any thing like this but I was excited and somewhat surprised about what was said.The whole question of should or can christians have sex before marriage seems kind of silly to me. Here's why; if we are truly Christian, and have taken Christ name, and are living our lives for him, striving for that relationship with him then our hearts and focus won't and shouldn't be on the physical. I completely agree and like the way Jon said that sex in a committed marriage is good and created by God, and that we should be ready to make that life commitment before we have sex, but having sex before marriage feels like a distraction from the real problem. We need to have our hearts set on God instead of when does the rule say I can have sex. Having sex before marriage also takes away some of the beauty and specialness and intimacy from having sex in a marriage covenant.

    Thank you Jon. I am with you 100%. I wish churches would talk about this more often. May God continue using you. Great videos.

    Great Video Jon - I think you struck a really good chord here that both christians, and even non-christians may be able to relate too, because rather than onesidedness it approaches the situation with honesty and most importantly 'wisdom'.

    Soooooo no it's not ok is the answer, bc marriage is the commitment of two people before God to one another physically mentally and spiritually

    Jon, I really enjoyed hearing your view on this subject. I can genuinely say I have not heard this particular perspective on sex before marriage before, and it's really got me thinking. Thank you for being bold and brave enough to address this topic and share your beliefs!
