With so many sex movies and sexual images all around, girls are under pressure from their boyfriends to have sex. They can no longer wait until marriage. Are you pressed to have sex before you marry? Here are 10 benefits of waiting until you marry to have sex:
1. Sex is a powerful force
It can destroy you if it is not used properly. Like atomic power, sex is the most powerful creative force given to man. When atomic power is used correctly, it can create boundless energy; when it is used in the wrong way, it destroys life. Sex is the same kind of powerful force. Sex is a gift from God to give us the greatest pleasure, to help in creating a deep companionship with one’s spouse, and for the procreation of the next generation. But if you play with this powerful force outside the bounds of marriage, it destroys you and those close to you.
2. Sexual activity arrests psychological, social, and academic development.
Studies show that when young people engage in premarital sex, their academic performance declines and their social relationships with family and friends deteriorate. This is because adolescents are too immature to deal with the explosive sex drive, which tends to dominate their lives.
3. Feeling of guilt
The majority of women cannot enjoy sex outside of the bonds of marriage. The development of a fulfilling sexual life needs the security and peace of the marriage bond. Premarital sex usually takes place by sneaking around in hidden places, dealing with the fear of being caught, the fear of pregnancy, and feelings of guilt. All these (worrisome) factors undermine pleasure in premarital sex, most especially for women.
4. Precious gift
Virginity is to be given to the most important person in your life—the person you committed yourself to stay with forever in marriage. Your virginity is the most precious thing you have to give to your spouse. Once you lose it, nothing in the world can bring it back. Don’t lose something so precious in a thoughtless way.
5. High risk of contracting a disease
Those who engage in premarital sex run a high risk of contracting one of the many venereal diseases rampant today, as well as losing their fertility. Not just AIDS, but other common disfiguring diseases like herpes have no cure.
6. Some venereal diseases have no symptoms and no cure.
So don’t bank on seeing tale-tale signs that might warn you. Many couples discover many years later that they are infertile because of these diseases. Infertility experts estimate that 80% of today’s infertility is due to venereal diseases contracted before marriage.
7. Waiting gives a 100% guarantee
The best and only method that guarantees 100% against AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases is to wait for marriage to have sex and maintain fidelity in your marriage.
8. Premarital sex breaks the 10 Commandments given by God.
The 10 Commandments are given to man by God to make him happy. They are not outdated, and they are not restrictive. If we follow these laws, we can create happy and prosperous lives. If we don’t follow them, we will pay a heavy price in divorce, disease, abortions, illegitimate children, and loneliness. Modern men make a big mistake when they think that they can break these eternal laws and not suffer consequences.
9. Premarital sex runs the risk of conceiving illegitimate children.
Numerous scientific studies show that the children of single mothers suffer psychologically and are less successful socially and academically than children from intact families. Above all, children need both their father and their mother. It is wrong to risk having children who will never have their father’s love, protection, and care.
10. If you date and you don’t have sex, you can forget about that relationship when you stop dating.
But if you have sex with those you date and then break up, the nature of sexual involvement creates strong, often unpleasant, memories for your whole life. Every relationship you break up where you had intimate relations is like a mini-divorce. The psychological difficulties of these mini-divorces damage your character. Later, when you are married and go to bed with your beloved spouse, these unpleasant memories will accompany you.
True love waits. If a boy or girl truly loves you, they will want the best for you. They will not want you to suffer from fear of disease, unwanted pregnancy, or the psychological difficulties of premarital sex. They will want to experience love with you only in the very best place of all—the love nest of marriage.

One scientific reason involves hormones that cause a woman to bond with a man (Gen 3:16). In the case of multiple partners, she will reset this chemical reaction in her brain to not be able to fully commit emotionally. Young girls trying to trap a man through sex will do the opposite (the reason for ghosting) because unless the man predetermines that she is the one, he will be repulsed somewhat.

Jenny, Jenny, thank you for sharing your story with us. At 16 years of age, you are technically still a minor or a child under the law, and you should stop going to see this 27-year-old man because what he has done to you is actually a criminal act; it is called rape, and it attracts a life-time jail sentence under the Child Rights Act (CRA) of Nigeria. And for those fond of arguing that the victim agreed to the sex act, according to the CRA, even if the child gave his or her consent, the adult or culprit has committed rape against the minor and, if found guilty, could face life imprisonment (CRA Part 111, Section 31). According to the law, “a child is not capable of giving his or her consent. So any sexual intercourse with anyone under the age of 18, regardless of the child’s consent, is rape against the child. You can read more at https://guardian.ng/news/sex-with-minor-considered-rape/
Please stop going to this man and report this incident to your parents immediately for them to take appropriate action.

What she the right person for you? Did you ask God if she was the right person?
Did you cry to God to intervene? Did your non-virgin partner really showed any sign of genuine repentance?
Please do not get me wrong with these questions. Prayer works and once you did your part to remain a virgin until marriage, you must challenge God based on His word. He will surely give you a perfect sexual life in your marriage.
No science can debunk what the Lord has said regarding marriage and sexual immorality.
Premarital sex is ungodly. We must be led in choosing our partners because sex is of God and He will surely link us to the right partners so far as compatibility is concerned.
I personally know a couple who never had premarital sex. They are happily married and Christ is in the marriage. Nothing is impossible for Him.

Dont ever give up something that you cant ever get back, if he continues to pressure you or tries to do something to hurt you then its a sign he only wants you to sleep with him. You can get a lot of things in this life, a virginity is something you can’t get back. God created us to have one so we can give it to our spouse, so don’t waste it.

Hi, Akinyemi, thanks for writing in. No doubt you have read scripture passage where Eve seduced Adam. Women have been seducing men right from the beginning. Thus it’s not an excuse. You have to resist. If not you should not blame Adam for falling to Eve and bringing unspeakable suffering on earth. Experienced people resist temptation by guarding their eyes. What you can control is what you look at. Even if a girl chooses to go naked (shameless) you still have the power not to look at her if you choose. So guard your eyes. See but don’t look. A man can see an indecently clad woman pass and leave it there. Another man can see the same woman, but looks i.e taking the details of her nakedness. More important, do not stay alone with a girl in a place where things can happen. You are more likely to fall into temptation when you are alone with a girl where no one can see. Finally, don’t exchange jokes or anything sexual in nature.
