Whether virginity is a lack of opportunity or not would be a product of several justification after certain facts have been established here.
Let's therefore look at a scripture passage and gain some altitude.So,I jump into the book of Luke 4:27 which says 'To a girl never having being married{and} a virgin in engaged to be married to a man...' That should tell you that I want to use Mary has as a yardstick to discuss this controversial issue.It's obvious that,sister Mary is into a serious relationship with bro.Joseph but through out the period of their relationship,it's not recorded that they defiled their own body.Before entering into the relationship,Mary was a virgin and after entering into it,she remained the same.I'm pretty sure that there'd be an occasion whereby they'll both have an opportunity to do something funny but they allowed not the flesh manifestation.The purpose of their relationship is known to both.
Having this understanding,I come to the point of knowing that relationship is not an avenue to fulfil sexual urge/thirst by either of the two party neither is it an opportunity to delve into unholy practices.
However,the present age of ours have given an evolutionary change to what relationship should be.It's now generally seen as a medium to satisfy the lustful desire of their heart.Many deceive themselves by saying 'they want to have a taste of themselves before the marriage to test each other potency' what a wrong thought?
Many relationship is to manipulate the other party,unnecessary demands are made all in the name of relationship.
If all these define unholiness in relationship,what should a godly relationship be?
The book of Romans 12:9 explain this,it says 'Let love be without dissimulation,abhor that which is evil,cleave to that which is good' Let's deal with each separately.
WITHOUT DISSIMULATION.
This shows that any godly relationship must not be built on deception either by the male or the female folks.A man should not be keeping ten ladies and telling you that 'you're the only one he has'This is not holiness.If you'll go with a lady,just do that and not play on them like a game,saying if this one does not work the other will.That's a plain deception.You don't have to lie about your family background to gain her approval,tell her all about yourself without hiding anything even,your past.cleave to one and build a rigid relationship that's void of feigning.
ABHOR EVIL
The word abhor means: to hate or regard with extreme repugnance or aversion,detest utterly,loathe,abominate.A godly relationship must not give room for evil practices of any degree.Sexual satisfaction must be loathed to have a serene relationship.
CLEAVE TO GOOD
I'll like to emphasize that the essence of any relationship is to grow in all facets of life and most importantly ,spiritually.If there is a relationship that is not glued to good conduct,it's not yet a relationship.Then,how can you cleave to that which is good? Spiritual activities,studying of the scripture together,projecting into the future,praying together,admonishing one another et al
Through this,a goldly home would come true.
If your relationship lack all these,try get it right.Not to late.
To bring this piece to a close,Mary fulfil purpose by keeping herself holy before God and she was rewarded and so also is the reward of being holy in relationship we keep.why not a disflowered vessel? Well,God is looking for a fora womb to fulfil His purpose and she was found.To clear argument here,if you've been disflowered,God's still interested in you and He can make you relevant.
Brethren,let's go with bro.Paul's word in Rom 12:1 'I beseech you therfore,brethren..to present your bodies a living sacrifice,holy,acceptale unto God...'
The essence of your relationship is to grow.Are you growing?
