PUT NOT THE CART BEFORE THE HORSE

Put not the cart before the horse,

 Put not sex before marriage.

 Just as it is foolish to put the cart before the horse

 So is it foolish to put sex before marriage.

 Sex with your girlfriend/boyfriend/fiancée/fiancé might be great,

 And you might really sincerely end up marrying each other and still have no issues,

 But that doesn't make it right.

 The Divine order of things is for sex to grace marriage, to spice it up and lubricate it.

 Sex is for the married.

 And like I saw somewhere,

"Dating is not for mating."

 So, flee sexual immorality,

Sexual sins are sins against your own body which is God's temple--

 Which God is very jealous over.

 (That doesn't make other sins less than sins, though.)

 Change your ways and return to the normal order of things.

 God will forgive you if you truly repent.

He will give you a brand new story and a brand new name.
