cac94a0 "Failure to put the relationship on a slower timetable may result in an act that was never intended in the first place. Another important principle is to avoid the circumstances where compromise is likely. A girl who wants to preserve her virginity should not find herself in a house or dorm room alone with someone to whom she is attracted. Nor should she single-date with someone she has reason not to trust. A guy who wants to be moral should stay away from the girl he knows would go to bed with him. Remember the words of Solomon to his son, "Keep to a path far from her, do not go near the door of her house" (Proverbs 5:8). I know this advice sounds very narrow in a day when virginity is mocked and chastity is considered old-fashioned. But I don't apologize for it. The Scriptures are eternal, and God's standards of right and wrong do not change with the whims of culture. He will honor and help those who are trying to follow His commandments. In fact, the apostle Paul said, "He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear" (1Corinthians 10:13). Hold that promise and continue to use your head. You'll be glad you did." act advice alone and apostle are attracted avoid away be bear bed beyond can change chastity circumstances commandments compromise considered continue culture day did do door eternal failure first follow girl glad go god-s guy he head help her him hold honor house important intended is keep knows let likely may mocked moral narrow near never not old-fashioned path paul place preserve principle proberbs promise reason relationship remeber result right scriptures she should single-date slower solomon someone son sounds standards stay tempted those to trust trying use very virginity wants what-you whims who whom will with words would wrong you you-ll your James C.
