A lot of people do not subscribe to anything like Christian sexual morality. Many people, including parents, do not care if their teenagers have sex, as long as they avoid childbirth or a fatal disease.
People who have different moral standards have no reason to support ours. Rather, they could wish to discourage us, since they believe our values are false and our standards foolish.
For a long time the culture held up with the glue anyway, even tho not everyone was overtly Christian. It was a pretty good way to live (and if you did otherwise you kept it more or less to yourself). Now the glue is gone and everything is falling apart.
I knew of at least 4-5 kids in HS that I can remember who would slept overnight in the Bf or Gf bed in their parents home and the parents had no problem with it. These were not ONS but long term relationships..and way way too many moms who would supply their daughters the pill.
My cousin is 20 and his girlfriend sleeps in his bed at his parents(my Aunt and Uncle) home when they come home from college to visit.
It's not Kansas out their Toto (Is that the line?)
Your post #55...yes, I’m aware of that...I’m one of those Christians who lived in darkness for 34 years before trusting the Lord Jesus Christ as my Savior for deliverance from sin, death, and the devil. I’ve been a Christian for 33 years and seen how wickedness has increased, just as the Bible says it would.
By God’s grace and love and mercy, He changes the hearts of those who live in darkness and believe our values and standards are foolish, and sets them free with His Truth!
