WHAT IS YOUR MOTIVATION FOR MARRYING YOUNG?

Here are some important questions I often ask young men.

Number 1: Are you attracted to her for her biblical beauty or are you attracted to her sensuality?

ᅠ

Lust comes from a perverse heart.

ᅠ

Lust is a work of the flesh, in Galatians 5:19: "For the works of the flesh are manifest, which are: adultery, fornication, impurity, lewdness."

A woman may properly be called beautiful, a woman may properly be called elegant, but a woman who is sensual has an evil heart. She has an evil heart!

ᅠ

Run away from sensuality.

ᅠ

Beauty, yes! We should be beautiful people. But sensuality... If you're attracted to that guy, that's more than anything else, an indication of your own heart. And you are biting into a fruit that is forbidden to you, and it will end up turning into a stone in your stomach. Why, I also said, "Are you attracted to her because of her biblical beauty or because of her sensuality?"

ᅠ

Second, are you attracted to her virtue or her personality? Even good personalities can be deceiving. Very misleading. You shouldn't look for personality. You must look for virtue! By virtue.

ᅠ

The Bible says in Proverbs 31:10, “A virtuous woman, who can find her? Her value far exceeds that of rubies.” Virtuous! As the years go by, guys... I want to tell you something, listen to me carefully: It won't be the physique that will stay in your woman, it will be the virtue. It will be virtue!

When you see if Christ really dwells in her heart, young men, then you will be drawn to the Christ that is manifested in her life.
