Hi! I'm 14 and I don't quiet understand what the bible says about pre marital sex if someone could explain what I should do to live my most holy life.
Hi Lulu, perhaps the most regularly asked question of pastors around the world is this, "
how do I know what the will of God is for my life"? One of the problems is that the Bible doesn't make answering that question very easy most of the time, because it rarely just comes right out and says something like, "
This is the will of God".
However, in this particular case, you're in luck (as they say), because that's exactly what the Bible does
1 Thessalonians 4
3 This is the will of God, your sanctification; that is, that you abstain from sexual immorality;
4 that each of you know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honor,
5 not in lustful passion, like the Gentiles who do not know God.
So, if you want to live a holy rather than sinful life/lifestyle before God, being sexually active before you are married is definitely ~not~ the way you want to go!!
God bless you!

p.s. - one bit of practical advice that I can offer you is this, make sure you are never alone with a boy (until you are married
). Youth group is a great help with this, and when you date apart from youth group, go on a group date with another couple. If you are trying to live a holy life you need to guard your heart, and this (never allowing yourself to be alone) will definitely help you do that
1 Thessalonians 4
7 God has not called us for the purpose of impurity, but in sanctification.
8 So, he who rejects this is not rejecting man, but the God who gives His Holy Spirit to you.
