What do Christian high school students consider the biggest cultural lies about sex? In this video, I talk with John Stonestreet (president of the Colson Center for Christian Worldview) about these lies and more. He’s an author and speaker on areas of faith and culture, theology, worldview, education and apologetics. John is the daily voice of Breakpoint, the nationally syndicated commentary on the culture, founded by the late Chuck Colson.

A boundry for "how far is too far": - are you doing something that is causing sexual arousal, that makes you want to go further? Then that is too far. If that is holding hands for you, then don't hold hands.

So don't breath? Some peeps like me have a high natural drive and just turned on for no reason at all a lot of the time? I'm 40 and still a virgin (haven't fallen in love and married) yet my natural drive is barely any bit less, even wakes me up and lose hrs of sleep time. So peeps like me shouldn't breath; for if that's all it takes with zero thoughts of the other sex, sex, anything sexual, etc? Yet can hold hands and hug without being turned on at all because my desires and heart are pure and saved for one. Well then what's your response on your statement now? How does one deal with that then?

@@josmo2256 Hey, that must really suck. I am sorry you are going through that. My response was not for you, or for your situation. It was for the question of "how far is too far?" within a dating context. You do not find yourself in that context, so my answer was not for you. Sorry if it sounded like I was making a blanket statement for everyone. First, keep on breathing! Second, as a nearly 40 year old man, who is married, the struggle does not go away. Marriage is not a cure for your biological programming. But, what I have found helps a lot is spending time in prayer. And specifically praying scripture. praying out loud, "Lead me not into temptation" and asking for help to "not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind" don't make the problems go away... but they point me in the direction of the one who can handle all the things that I can't. lastly, I just want to say again, I really feel for what you are dealing with. I would encourage you to talk to your pastor, to other brothers in the Lord, and let them in on what is going on if you haven't yet.

Am still saving myself at age 60. Was at a Christian camp at age 13 and learned the importance of saving yourself for marriage! I have some curiosity...which is normal but have no regrets! Plus if you don't have premarital sex, hen you do get married, it is a gift for your spouse. You have no comparisons and you both can learn together. When you live with someone, there is no expectation that something will change after you get married. The other person can just say...that's how i was when yo were living with me! Why do i have to change now? Whereas if you both saved yourself before marriage you are more likely to change something about yourself for your partner.

Cautionary at the core, a great conversation. Philosophically provocative at a minimum, this talk is well worth the time regardless of your world view. While listening, I felt where was this conversation when I was a teen. As someone whe spent a large portion of my life away from the Christian ideal, and who spent years operating essentially promiscuously (and then some), I essentially landed in agreement with these gentlemen through horrific decisions and behavior and by coming to my own faith in Jesus. I had a friend who told me "if it was a mile into the woods it's probably going to be a mile out." Here I would caution be careful you don't walk blindly off a cliff with a mile drop. Repentance has been a journey for many reasons and because of many habits and behaviors and even addictions. Abstinace from sex for me at this point? Emancipation seems a good word as does freedom. Liberation means something, and God as He expressed Himself in the New Testement regarding sex is the ideal in my humble opinion. Healing from soul ripping consequences of behavior is no joke, please take my word for that. Please consider the thought that memories can be both haunting and jarring even after you've been granted freedom, or stopped behaviors.

I love what Sean said he says to students. When I counsel teens that aren't even Christians, I tell them almost the exact same thing. I tell them that if you wait, when you're older, you will never look back and think "well dang, I really wish I would have slept with my high school boyfriend/ girlfriend." But if you sleep with that highschool love, you very well may regret it.

But the sanctification has been really strong lately and though my husband passed ten years ago God has kept me pure. Great show I wish more could understand how important it is to follow Gods plan for love and sex

A French kiss starts the engines. It can be sexual or lead to further sexual activity. In hindsight, I would have preferred waiting until the wedding for my first kiss. Trying to draw lines is a big bag of craziness. In the moment, you try to move those lines and re-justify them. I love the insight of the heart, as when Jesus said if we have hatred in our heart, it's as if we've committed murder. Great way to view dating and how far to go.

Christian marriage has traumatised many women who are told that it's their duty to be available for their husbands whenever he wants it. But if he isn't treating his wife like Christ loves the church and LAY DOWN HIS LIFE for her, it is very difficult for her to trust him. This is a big problem within the church. I was in this position for 16 years. Our sex life was evil. He was a twisted, narcissistic beast who expected me to be available to him on demand. Men need to be taught how to love their wives in a godly manner. I'm tired of hearing these lies. As the head of the household, husbands need to be held accountable

I’m sorry for your trauma, sister. I’m praying for you. That’s not an issue with Christian marriage though, that’s an issue with your husband and men like your husband. The scripture clearly says everything that you said: That men are to love their wives as Christ loves the Church and lay their life down for them. Just because our bodies belong to our spouses doesn’t give us a free license to abuse them or treat them as objects. God bless you

These generalist discussions although interesting are ultimately futile. Why? Everyone is different. The most you can say is that sex should be between consenting adults. What’s a lie and what’s true depends upon the individual and the circumstances. Some of the most messed up views about sex is that God wants you to do it a particular way. All the stories of sexual abuse in the church points to hypocrisy about sex in religious circles.

@andrewpatrick2563 Месяц назад
What does human failings within the church have to do with what God teaches about or about anything? Just calling certain things and abuse is recognizing that there are boundaries that apply to all people. That sex should be between two consenting adults is not the most you can say. The Bible very clearly teaches that sex should only be in the context of marriage and that marriage is a comprised of one man and one woman. Whether or not you believe in the Bible is your issue but you have to understand when watching this video that a biblical worldview is assumed in it.

@@andrewpatrick2563 I know a biblical world view is assumed. However, even when using your biblical world view we cannot conclude that “sex should only be in the context of marriage and that marriage is [a ] comprised of one man and one woman”. First, please provide chapter and verse which explicitly prohibits sex outside of marriage. Even the patriarchs had more than one wives. Exodus 3:1 states that Moses’ wife was called Zipporah the daughter of Jethro, a priest in the land of Midian. However, Numbers 12:1 makes reference to Moses having married a Cushite ( Ethiopian ) wife. 2 Samuel 12:8 God gave David the wives of Saul as a reward for his loyalty. David had 8 wives. 1 Kings 11:3 states that Solomon, had 700 wives and 300 concubines. Even from a biblical perspective marriage is not between one man and one woman as Christians who don’t know their Bible love to state.

@@horridhenry9920 it’s never actually clear that Moses was married to both simultaneously. Marriage is established in Genesis 2:24. When God revealed to the Hebrews they didn’t exist in a cultural vacuum. They had the basic culture of the ancient near east.

@@andrewpatrick2563 I understand Christians say that. But the Bible doesn’t. In fact Christians say and infer many things based on their own interpretation of the Bible. The distinction between described and prescribed is a cope out. Indeed, it makes the Bible an unreliable guide regarding how to live. It prescribes not wearing clothes of mixed fabric and not eating shell fish, but describes marriage and slavery. Don’t you think a prescription of thou shall only have one wife, and thou shall not own people as property, would have solved a multitude of problems and avoided some of the negative consequences of only providing a description?

@@horridhenry9920 the mixed fabric and shell fish are prescribed for a certain people for a certain time. One is part of ritual laws and the other a dietary law, Jesus fulfilled the law making it pointless to follow such laws. Yes there are moral laws but them being part of the law is not what made them moral, morality preceded the law and still exist after the law. Yes there are laws given on slavery and prescriptions how to practice it in New Testament and not an outright abolition spelled out in the Bible. Slavery like polygamy was preexisting part of the culture that wasn’t going to go away easy but the statutes and values put forth in the Bible are what eventually led to Christian cultures to be the first to have abolition movements much of the world that was never part of Christendom still practices slavery in fact there are more slaves than ever. Plus if you really read the laws about slavery it becomes clear that it is something more akin to indentured servants that is being described rather than someone forcibly kidnapped or born into slavery which would have violated other parts of the law. Polygamy roughly followed the same path as the law eventually shaped a people that would be monogamous as was the original intention. Also how is it a cop out to point out that a lot of the narrative portions are descriptive and not prescriptive, most of the narrative is how people failed, of course that’s descriptive. Be aware of which genre you are reading in the Bible.

People ask the question is it a sin to have sex before marriage, yet sex can be a sin within marriage, the Christ said, if you look upon a woman to lust after her you have committed adultery with her in your heart, does this not include your wife she being woman, it is also written, stay away from the works of the flesh, sensuality is one of them, is not sexual intimacy the sensuality of the flesh, you say french kissing is Romance and not sexual, who can you kiss passionately romantically where it does not concern sexual intimacy, we must rise above all carnality and sex is one of them, why do you think Paul said, you should not have sex for a time but you both should be agreeable, because in the end sex is meaningless, it pertains to the flesh, god simply allows such things in marriage because it is the act of producing children, once you then have sexual intimacy concerning pleasure the you move into something else, hedonism, god allows these things because of your lack of control, this is why Paul said, after a while you should come together lease the devil take hold of you it is not good to burn With Passion you may lose control and take your wife sinfully, there is a greater depth to these things then what you are discussing here.
