What They Don't Tell You About Staying Sexually Pure: A Christian Perspective and How to Live Godly

Sexuality and sexual purity is a hot topic for men who want to have godly character. Godliness requires us to have a pure affection, to be a "one woman man" (1 Timothy 3:2), to have a pure passion in our Christian living. This is right for men in godly marriage as well as in singleness. All men battle impure thoughts and need to build the character of a godly man. They need to flee sexual immorality and learn to love your wife as Christ loved the church. This is the essence of godly qualities. In this videos, I'm going to teach you what it means to build a PURE AFFECTION as a godly man and suggest 5 ways to do live it now.

Let me know how you build a PURE AFFECTION in your life as a married or single man. Of course, keep it godly.

[marcusamilcar]

“If you’re single, you can love your future wife by holding your purity”🔥

[clarencesmith]

I was a one woman man. God gave me a wonderful wife.The enemy stole her away from me after 38 years. I will remain faithful to God. It's hard to believe she left me for another man. Holy Spirit, help me.

[phill]

As a married man who once struggles with sexual lust and desire. You need to deal with how you see a woman before you get married. Getting married will not resolve your underlying issues and in fact can destroy a marriage before its begun. De your future wife a solid and deal with your wandering eye and lustful heart now, as a house is only as strong and the foundation its build upon.

[rabiafuwai]

Man of God, we surely need grace in the marriage institution because it's a complex one. May God give us the grace we need to give and receive genuine love from our spouses the way God intended us to.

[Daniel]

Nice vid bro...this is what men need to hear, it would even bring back trust in this mess we made by doing whatever we want when we want

[callips]

Thank you brother. I was so touched at the part where you mentioned marriage is a portray of Christ’s redemptive work. That’s what my pastor has been telling us. God bless you and thank you for your hard work :))

[jimbearone]

Abstaining from sex takes more strength than even Superman could muster. Cultivating a PURE, MORAL attitude and keeping away from those things which may lead you astray will go a long way towards your future happiness.

[sdmfp]

It was the toughest path I had to endure when I was unmarried

[rylencason]

Just subbed. I was just wondering what reasons cause me to remain single and this video perfectly explained it. Subbed. The Lord's timing is perfect.

[Christina_]

Thank you for the video. Oh God help me in every way possible.

[tonebonebgky]

I've struggled with the roaming eye especially since I work in a university full of young attractive women, that's no excuse though and I am doing my best to stop doing that and although I love my wife and family more than anything and would never act on my thoughts but that's still not an excuse because Jesus said that to even look at a woman is like lying down with her, as a lifelong Christian I should have these thoughts umder submission to my shame I'm still working on it at 48 years old.

[HeidiRobinson-fnjq]

The human heart and the human brain each have their own memories.

[rrdutch]

When I read the Bible, men who remained pure, remained single and celibate. The men who had wives were all sinners. There’s always the literal vs. metaphorical discussion; however when compared to the reality I live in… staying single and celibate has not brought me a wife (or even a date with a prospective woman who could be a wife) in over a decade. I’d argue there’s at minimum some context missing… unless most single men have no purpose or future wife…..

[EBThisThat]

Could you do a female version of this ? I’ve been remaining celibate for 3 years and working on myself to be ready to marry but I struggle with libido and lustful thoughts. I’m 43 and don’t mind being single, but I still long for a family. It’s hard, especially when others assume you’ve already done those aforementioned things and you’re asking God why they haven’t happened. I trust God but I also wonder if I’ve done something wrong at times.

[SanguiniustheGreatAngel]

Romans 8:5
For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit. 6 For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace. 7 For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God, for it does not submit to God's law; indeed, it cannot. 8 Those who are in the flesh cannot please God.

[thomascraig]

What if you don’t plan on getting married or you’re late Middle-aged and single? Who on this Earth are you saving sexuality purity for then?

[thetruthhurts]

While it is always good to hear and be reminded of God's instructions to men, i am tired of it all being directed to men with zero instruction to women because they might be angered by it. All i hear is apologies to feminists for the clear teachings of the Bible.

[stripes]

If ONLY, BOTH Men and Women would follow and OBEY the teachings of The Bible, WE wouldn't have the mess that we have in today's society. We wouldn't have out of wedlock births, abortions, sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), adultery, divorce, child support and custody issues, and depression.
I have REMAINED A VIRGIN until I was married; my wife did as well. WE ARE GRATEFUL AND APPRECIATIVE THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED!! WE have known several people who ARE NOT as Fortunate and Blessed as WE have been.
My advice and counsel to people, especially the young people out there is to refrain and abstain from sex until you are married with your special some one. I know that IS NOT the popular thing to say and/or espouse in today's society and world. However, I just don't concern myself with the trends and care of this world 🌎🌍.
YES!!! I live in this world 🌎🌍, but I AM NOT of this world 🌎🌍!!!

[ifeawosika]

I have one question. If the bible wants us to have one spouse, why did the lineage of Jesus come from Leah and not Rebecca? Leah was the unwanted wife while Rebecca received all the affection.
