Purity Matters by QUEST at First Capital Christian Church

We took this idea from a video they did at Acquire the Fire and tried it here in Corydon. Starring Linnea, Samantha, Rachel, Caitlin, Kyle, and Joseph.

So what your telling me is god only wants the pure water bottle? no, god wants both of those water bottles. because in all of us, we are the water bottle that everyone drank out of. we are the unpure water bottle no matter how much we go to church, pray, and read the bible. god wants the unpure water bottle to make that person a beleiver of god. i'm sorry but in my opinion this wasnt a good illustration.

@godawgs305 Thanks for emailing it. FIrst, in hind sight, I'd not do that video again. Second, the point was never that God doesn't want an impure person, just that purity matters in practical ways. People think that their personal choices for purity aren't important, and we were trying to show in a simple way that it does matter to strive for purity. I can see how that could come across the wrong way. God accepts anyone, and I apologize if the opposite message came across.

So are you guys saying that if you're not pure and you didn't wait until marriage then nobody will want you? Jesus wants that water bottle, because he loves all of us no matter what sins we commit. Now I agree, purity is important and it's a beautiful thing to wait until your wedding night with your husband/wife, but this is the wrong way to get the message across because people who aren't pure are just as good as people who are.

the fact that people are not getting the bigger picture is crazy! They are saying Save yourself until marriage. Where do you see they are trying to say God does not want the unpure??? I will wait......

I like the idea and I totally get it and I want my daughters and sons to stay pur until marriage. What they have is a gift and I want that gift for their husband or wife only.Great Job!

this is actually the reason so many believe religious people to be misguided. if you have to try and convince people purity matters through people taking turns drinking out of the same bottle is it slimy and conniving. to be honest. im also guessing this is about abstinence there is nothing wrong with sleeping with people before your married. why should you worry anyway does it affect you? is it a big fucking issue to you that people want to to have sex?
