Have you ever heard about chastity? Do you want to know how you can live a life of Christian chastity with ease of body and spirit? So come with us and we’ll help you with this post.
What is Chastity?
Chastity is a Christian act of keeping pure soul and heart until the holy marriage blessed by God. However, chastity can go far beyond sex after marriage.
After holy matrimony, it is possible to maintain a chaste marriage where sex can only be to produce new children for the kingdom of God.
In today's world, with so much laxity about virtuousness and chastity, many people believe that chastity is not something that is important to God. However, our body is our home for God and for this reason, it must be preserved from sinful carnal pleasures.
Even after holy matrimony, it is possible for a couple to remain chaste in search of a union based on love and companionship, where sex is only to procreate new children of God and create a beautiful Christian family.
Know Your Limits
When starting a relationship, understand your limits and those of your partner. Furthermore, after realizing the situations that can lead to a breach of chastity, avoid doing them and this way the relationship will follow the norms of the Christian church and the relationship will prosper towards a holy and happy marriage.
A good tip is not to be alone with your partner in environments such as the bedroom or car, and always avoid very intimate contacts such as heated kisses and touching hands in more intimate places.
How to Have a Christian Dating?
1. Remember that you are God who is within the relationship. Therefore, keep your attention focused on your feelings and thoughts so that love grows. Don't forget that you are responsible for the well-being of others and should not do anything that could hurt or leave the person in sin.
2. Do not allow premarital sex as it may produce children. A family formed without God's blessings can go through many turbulences and difficulties. However, if this happens, seek the kingdom of God and it will help you through the trials.
3. Don't be too critical of others, nor too authoritarian. The fact that you want a Christian relationship does not mean that those who don't want it are wrong, it just means that they are in sin (whether consciously or not).
Respect Your Body
Your body is the house of God, because not just anyone can come in and get to know you in the most intimate way possible.
Therefore, always, before starting any relationship, talk about your beliefs and goals to seek a holy relationship. Talk and see what can be done to avoid tense situations that could break chastity.
