On the issue of chastity and purity, it is argued by some people that it's practically impossible for everyone to attain that status in this age, given all the temptations. Free porn, girlfriend/boyfriend/ ashawo, short time hotels - everything easily available to make it happen. Just like Op many people have presented themselves as chaste, pure and holy. However, many of these people have turned out to be hypocrites - invariably, the devil is blamed. Op you tried sha, but only in the mind of those who believe your self-adulating yarn. |

It is only with the grace of God that one can totally abstain from this iniquity. I used to be active when i was in University, though with a girlfriend but after we parted ways, i vowed to be celibate till marriage or when i meet that special someone. Truth is i kept to my plan, avoid any secular activity that could trigger the urge, for 10 months, i tried, i really tried but this month, every of my dreams have been framed with sexual immorality. I would wake up and say the little prayer i knew how to say and fall back to sleep, battled this for 2 weeks, yet no improvement. Na hin i call Sade make we see , long story short local man gave in and boom, e be like say my whole body dey full ,Nna, 1 hour i no burst, sade self tire, when i con nut, i felt this emptiness like say i no get strength again. Since that day, my body feels better, i sleep better and con be like say all the burden wey dey my mind don go. To the ones that have kept themselves for so long, una dey try and to those wey go come online dey lie, make una dey deceive unaself. 8 Likes |

Pure rubbish and lies. Tell us the books you wrote people in India are buying. This type of charlatan all over the country is why the country is never gonna move forward. Did you say God appeared to you?? How do we confirm that? Any crook can claim that, and that is why Nigeria has millions of people claiming to have had contact with God. It is all lies upon lies everyday to deceive the army of gullible fools . If you entrust him with anything tangible he will turn to devil immediately. 4 Likes |

Freshprince91: You did the right thing. A man wasn't made to be celibate. Look at what happens with the priests...they end up molesting little boys. It might be good and beneficial to be celibate for a time period...maybe 30 days, or 60 days. But anything longer is very risky. Before you know it, the guy is looking at little boys, or little girls. Celibacy is like daming a river...you have to let go of the restrictions (have sex) after a period of time, or the river will break through the restrictions (wet dreams, priests molesting little boys, pastor's sleeping with female members, etc). |

iHart: You just went completely off the point. What does chastity have to do with being a total liar? Abstaining from sex doesnt mean one will escape the consequences of being an idiot in non-sexual matters so I just dont understand what you wrote up there. Stop trying to undermine the importance of sexual purity by yolking it with irrelevant issues. So if OP wrote about why its good to be honest, you would have written that "Wow! But my friend who finished school riding on exam malpractice was a virgin, so being dishonest doesnt mean you are not righteous" Right? That scripture you quoted was not about Jesus excusing promiscuity. Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes are entering the kingdom of God ahead of you. 32 For John came to you to show you the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him, but the tax collectors and the prostitutes did. And even after you saw this, you did not repent and believe him. It was about repenting and acknowledging Jesus as your Lord and Saviour. Anybody who does that, whether a prostitute or tax collector, will arrive in Heaven over somebody who doesn't. That's not to say that's it's okay to be a prostitute. You just quoted that verse out of context and twisted the whole point Jesus was making to buttress your own warped narrative smh In fact that stuff you modified there was the worst part of your post: Modified: Whatever you get today without struggling is not because you are a virgin but because of the grace of God. There are very sinful people who still don't struggle to get things. Who are you to tell people that being a virgin didn't help them not to struggle? Who gave you that licence? The point of it is forgoing or sacrificing the enjoyment for His sake. Not that you will suddenly be showered in riches because you managed to keep this ONE commandment. Did He ever say anything like that You seem to be one of those who uses the grace of God to excuse immorality. Remember that " the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" . That God doesn't choose to strike people down or totally ruin their lives whenever they sin is His mercy in action. That doesn't mean that keeping to His commands will not help you or that He won't at times allow you face the natural consequences of your actions. 6 Likes |

OP, give all the glory to God. It wasn't by your strength you achieved it but by the divine energy released with the divine Voice you heard, else you may have been like many today. For those who seek freedom from the clutches of sexual bondage. You can't win by the arm of flesh. Its easier if you never fall but even if any has fallen, you can come out by the mystery of Grace. Not the empty grace preached by many today, but the real tangible grace found at the Throne that gives men power for righteousness. Seek this as long as God gives you another day to live on this earth. Don't condemn yourself as long as He gives you today, but keep on asking(for as long as you can) each day for grace until you get it and live shamelessly righteous before God. Remember this key- another day, another God-given opportunity to ask grace for selfless-righteousness of God. To the virgins, seek grace to not fall from your privileged position and come under bondage and curses of demons. The Lord uphold you. 2 Likes 1 Share |

iHart: Your opinion is absolutely correct. I have a friend who was living with his girlfriend during our final semester project. In mind I always see him as the worst sinner who might even have issue due reckless sexual countenances. Funny enough he was among the first ten best student in our set.

When I was in school, one of my closest friends till date was a serial fornicator, yet, he was the best in our department, I couldn't understand it, here I was trying everything to be the best, not engaging in sexual sin, but someone was just cruising life like a plane on an auto pilot. Presently, he is a lecturer and his philandering nature hasn't stopped. I have thought about this so much that I came to a conclusion that it is "Grace". We don't ever deserve anything, King Solomon described this in the old testament as time and chance. 3 Likes |

CsRockefeller: Your reasoning is lacking. Being a serial fornicator didn't stop that guy from being a brilliant student. Does ejaculation into a woman you are not married to affect ones mental capacity Being a faithfully chaste guy didn't improve your brain power. But improving your studying techniques would have. Or maybe youre just not as smart as the guy! What does it have to do with your peepee Or you were expecting God to rubbish the guy in your presence so that you could feel justified 1 Like |

Freshprince91: You know that dream stuff happened to me, and within weeks, I fell too. It was later I had a discussion with my mum who said that the devil starts by polluting your life through dreams. That's where it all start and if you don't seriously pray and cancel it, you find yourself getting polluted again. That you fell doesn't mean you should give up. Go back to God, confess your sins and start again. You don't need to give excuses. There is truly premium blessings in chastity. Don't let the devil win. 4 Likes |

midnighter: I'm trying hard to know whose side you are on. First, the Bible talks a lot about fleeing from sin as a prerequisite for wisdom. So, if one indulges in sin and is sin to be "living life" it somehow cast doubts in the minds of people trying to live holy. My friends wisdom/intelligence/knowledge isn't a result of special study habits, he is gifted, one which can come from a superior being. God kept pouring him wisdom/sound brain despite his unfaithfulness. That was what I couldn't understand. But, Grace they say is sufficient for us all. |

CsRockefeller: Truly, I dont understand whose side you are on either! I removed those last two questions from my last post to give it more focus. I didnt prescribe study habits for the dude. I asked you whether you made an honest effort to be as brilliant as he was before coming to this conclusion. Apart from that, are you as kind, generous or patient as he is? Do you know if his parents having been praying for him every day since he was born? Since you seem to think that his sexual deviance should by rights have scuppered his ability, do you equally know where his blessing is coming from? On a purely logical and intellectual level, do you know if he grew up in a house filled to the brim with books? Or if his father woke him up an hour early every day to solve one mathematical problem or the other? Did you equally have such a stimulating environment? How can you come to these kind of conclusions based on somebodys sex life! Thats what I dont understand. There are so many variables here but youre just focusing on one thing which is tangential without looking at the main issue. Look how you said "God kept pouring him wisdom/sound brain despite his unfaithfulness"! Haba, so what about all the atheists and agnostics in the world who dont give a hoot? What should God be pouring them |

Nooil:Oh Nigerians, see mentality....did you study biology in secondary school?? Now let me school. U a bit, for starters.......a man's sexual organs works continuously, billions of sperm cells are produced in the testes every week and stored in the epidedymis, if the man doesn't release the already stored ones, more will keep coming, causing a rise in sexual urge and at this point, a high sex drive nigga is most likely going to fall, but if he doesn't, the body will be forced to release the excess sperm cells, in which ur brain will plainly interpret to sex in your dreams.......stop attaching spirituality to everything |

Very inspiring. As a child in ekiti, I had a friend who was a virgin like me. This guy would see visions , even things we weren't seeing around us, he would see. One day, he was going to the farm after school. He got to a place around 1pm and he discovered the whole environment was so dry and quiet. Suddenly, he saw this man coming into the city from afar. When this man got closer, his legs were like that of a goat while his waist upward resembled that of a human being. He was shocked. He greeted this man, no response. The man was just darting away. He shouted again...ekaasan sir, still no response, until he went out of his sight. He stood still, a few minutes later he asked a guy coming behind him if he saw this man, the guy said no. He has seen several things ordinary eyes couldn't see. Even to our wives, there should be a limit to it. Whenever I'm going for any appointment, be it visa or business...that's when my wife would be robbing her body against mine, even without being aware of where I'm going. I'd endure the temptation until after I'm back from the appointment which always ends successful. But once i touch her, I don see the reward already be dat |
