Questioner
I read your answer on the subject of virginity, and have a few questions for
you:
What do you mean? If a women remains a virgin for life is she more valuable to God? In God's eyes?
Answer
I don't believe I said it in those words. God is absolutely pure and He has declared that His creation is to be pure and virginity is simply another aspect of purity.
Questioner
What does the Bible say about a man being a virgin? Does it matter for a man? If not, why not?
Answer
A man is also required to remain a virgin until marriage. God's wants total purity from both men and women.
Questioner
Is a women lessened by not being a virgin? In what way? Is she dirty? Unclean? Soiled? Is a man in the same state?
Answer
To lose one's virginity because of sexual sin is unclean in God's sight, but He offers forgiveness and restoration through faith in Christ.
Questioner
This virgin thing is not from God.
Answer
God created the hymen in women not evolution. God's Word demands total purity.
Questioner
The concept of virginity is from insecure men who want to be sure their blood
descendents are clear.
Answer
The Bible disagrees with what you just said.
Question
God never made us unclean or unacceptable.
Answer
True. God created Adam and Eve in total purity and it was their freewill choice to sin against His holiness and thus become unclean.
Questioner
God made us each a wonder. All parts of us. We don't need to be ashamed because we were born.
Answer
We were all born with the "original sin" of Adam and Eve on
our souls because we are their descendants, and God charged the entire human
race with the sin. It is true that we are all wonderfully made by God as unique
creations, but we all have a sin problem that must be dealt with at the Cross of
Calvary before our death or we will spend eternity in torment.
Questioner
You have an opportunity to help someone, then help. Stop telling people they are dammed. You don't know any more than anyone else. The most wonderful commandment is Love one another. Try that! Please!
Answer
God is a holy God and Jesus taught more about eternal judgment and Hell than any other person in the Bible. Jesus declares this: "Jesus answered,
'I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through
me.'[John 14:6]
This verse declares that if a person dies believing in any other religion or belief that
is not based on salvation in Jesus Christ, by faith and faith alone, is
eternally damned to torment and wrath. Thus, all Hindus, Muslims, Buddhists, Jews,
Catholics, Mormons, JWs, etc., are eternally damned. Don't use your human wisdom against God's declared Word.
