Hey, Awesome Teen!


What's on your mind? Yes, please let me know! This blog is for you, and I want to address the biggest issues going on in your life. So please leave a comment. If your issue is private, please feel free to email me at drmaryann@maryanndiorio.com.

While I am eagerly waiting for your reply, I'd like to address something that needs to be talked about but often isn't.  And that is the topic of sex before marriage.
































Today, like never before, young people are facing the temptation to have sex before marriage. Our culture puts the pressure on by saying it's okay if you love the guy or the girl.

Well, I'm here to tell you this: It is NOT okay!!! 

You see, marriage was designed by God to reflect Christ's relationship with the Church. This relationship is pure and holy.  Satan wants to pervert and destroy the marriage relationship by deceiving us into thinking that what is wrong is really right. 

Regardless of what others may say, sex before marriage will harm you. Here are a few of the ways in which you will get hurt:


1-Having sex before marriage will hurt your future marriage.
How? The act of sex creates a soul tie with the person with whom you are having sex. If this soul tie is created outside of marriage, it will be an evil soul tie that will affect your future relationship with your husband if you do marry. An evil soul tie will place an emotional and spiritual wedge between you and your husband and cause problems in your marriage. Many divorces today are caused by ungodly soul ties formed in past sexual relationships. If you've had illicit sex with more than one guy, then you've formed an ungodly soul tie with each of those guys.


2-Having sex before marriage will rob your future husband of the gift of your virginity and rob you of the joy of giving your husband this gift.
While your husband may forgive you, he will always feel the grief of knowing that he was not the first and only person with whom you had sex. He may not tell you this, but it will remain in his heart and affect the closeness between you. 


3-Having sex before marriage will affect your future sexual relationship with your husband because you might compare your husband with your previous partner or partners. 
While you may not want to do this, you will, and that comparison could destroy your marriage.


4-Having sex before marriage could give you a sexually transmitted disease that will affect you the rest of your life.
And affect not only you, but your husband and your children. Some STDs are incurable but by the grace of God! 


This is serious stuff!

Sex outside of marriage is sex outside the covenant of marriage, a covenant that God established for your protection and peace. When a girl agrees to have sex outside of marriage, she is flagrantly disobeying God's command and putting herself in the way of great spiritual, emotional, psychological, and physical harm.

Perhaps some of you reading this have already had sex outside of marriage. If so, let me remind you that God is merciful and will forgive you if you repent of your sin (1 John 1: 9). So ask Him to forgive you and purpose not to have sex again until you are married.

 
Remember this: "There is a way that appears to be right, but in the end it leads to death" (Proverbs 14: 12).  Don't follow that way!

SAY 'NO' TO SEX BEFORE MARRIAGE" by Dr. MaryAnn Diorio

Hey, Awesome Teens,

On this blog, we're not afraid to address ALL the issues teen face today. Teens who follow Jesus are not immune to the temptations that assail other teens. But followers of Jesus have the power of God to hold on to in the face of temptation. We can escape and overcome temptation every single time as long as we obey Jesus and not the world.

So, what does Jesus say when it comes to sex? First of all, let's remember that God created sex. It was His idea, and so it's a good thing. But, like everything else in life, sex is a good thing only when practiced according to God's commands. And God says that sex is to be engaged in ONLY in marriage. Sex outside of marriage is a sin, and it will always hurt and even destroy those who engage in it outside of marriage. God's Word says this: "The wages of sin is death" (Romans 6: 23). 

God says what He means, and He means what He says!





You may be asking this question: Why does God put these restrictions on sex? Doesn't He want me to have fun?

Let's look at it this way. When you were a toddler, did your parents put a fence around your backyard or a gate at the top of the stairs? If so, why? The answer is obvious: Your parents did not want you roaming into the street where you could get hit by a car and injured or killed. Nor did they want you falling down the steps and possibly getting seriously injured.

Were the fence and the gate put there to keep you from having fun? No, of course not!  They were put there to protect you so you could have fun within a safe area. 

Well, God is our Heavenly Father, and He wants to protect us from harm. So He gives us a fence. That fence is called the Bible. As long as we remain within the protection of the Bible by obeying what it says, we will be safe. But if we disobey what the Bible says--that is, if we go outside the fence or remove the gate--then we will always get hurt. Always!

How will we get hurt? Well, here are a few ways you will get hurt if you participate in sex before marriage:


1--You start off marriage on the wrong foot: the foot of mistrust. Imagine how your spouse will feel or how you will feel knowing that your spouse had been intimate with someone else.  Because you or your spouse gave away what should be given only to each other (your virginity), when you get married, you cannot give your spouse the gift of being the first one. 

2--Every time you have sex with someone, you develop a soul tie with that person. (Read my article on "Sex and Soul Ties").  These soul ties can bring into your life demonic influences that will torment you for the rest of your life unless you repent and get delivered by the Blood of Jesus Christ. 

3--You risk getting pregnant and causing your child to be labeled as an illegitimate child.  While this label may not mean much in the world's way of thinking, in the spiritual realm, an illegitimate child has a curse upon him called the "Bastard Curse." (Read my article called "Are You Cursed with the Bastard Curse?")

4--If you do get pregnant, you may be tempted to have an abortion. Abortion is murder. It is the killing of a child in the womb. The Bible proves in Psalm 139 that the baby in the womb is a human being. No one tells you how women who have had an abortion suffer torment and anguish the rest of their lives unless they come to Christ to forgive them and heal them.

5--You risk contracting sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) that can destroy your life for the rest of your life. STDs are nothing to sneeze at. They are painful, debilitating, and often fatal.

6--You miss out on God's best for your life. God has a wonderful plan for your life (Jeremiah 29: 11). But you won't experience that plan unless you live your life the way God has instructed you to live it in the Holy Bible. The Bible is God's manual for your life. Just as you get a manual when you buy a car or a DVD player, so do you get a manual when you enter this world. That manual is called the Bible. It tells you how you work best. So, doesn't it make sense to do what the Bible says so you can live the blessed life God wants you to live?

7--Worst of all, sooner or later you will reap the horrible consequences of sin. The Bible says that "the wages of sin is death" (Romans 6: 23). You cannot sin without suffering the consequences of sin. Let that truth make you think hard and long.

Remember this; Sex God's way is the only way. Any other way will bring you only harm.


I hope this post has made you think twice before having sex before marriage.
