1. Sex is a powerful force that can
destroy if 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
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 for young people
arrests their 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
and it tends to dominate their life.

3. The majority of women cannot
enjoy sex outside of the bonds of
marriage. The development of a
fulfilling sex life needs the security
and peace of the marriage bond.
Premarital sex usually takes place 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. 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. 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 many couples
discover many years later that
they became infertile because of
these diseases. Infertility experts
estimate that 80% of today's infertility is due to venereal
diseases contracted before they
married.

7. 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 man
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 does damage to
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
fear of disease, unwanted pregnancy and 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.
