 The Bible does not teach that sex outside of marriage is sinful. Hey my guy, I hate to break this to you, but it does. Now this isn't to say that if you've had sex outside of marriage that you're unforgivable or you're worth less or anything ridiculous like that. But it would be unloving of me to try to convince people that God has no problem with sex before marriage. Rather than using fear tactics that the purity culture uses, I'd rather encourage people to know Christ and have a connection with Him because I think obedience comes through connection, not coercion. And when we begin to truly know Christ and have a connection and relationship with Him, we stop twisting His words in order to fit our lifestyle and we start shifting our lifestyle to fit what He has commanded.
