The clear honest, realistic and pure theology of this channel making me truly understand about my sexual needs. May our good LORD draw here more people to listen and to learn so that we may apply this truth in our lives.
Who ever told you of such a perverse idea as that‽ Why would you hide your emotions from a potential partner, especially if you're considering a lifetime commitment?
@@Grokford that's not what emotional chastity means. I'd suggest praying about it because your emotional reaction to a very prudent practice (emotional chastity) is telling
@@csongorarpad4670 Telling of what exactly? It's all fine and good to say that I'm wrong but if you're not going to correct anything then you might as well not said anything
@@GrokfordI’m thinking there isn’t a clear understanding of what this means in this conversation… reading this 5 months later, maybe you don’t care anymore, but anyway… emotional chastity = I’m married to my wife, how much should I be thinking of another woman? How close should I get to other female friends etc? That’s in a nutshell what emotional chastity is regarding. It’s not as complicated a topic as people like to believe, but is more so an issue that women struggle with more than men as they live more inside their heads than a man, thus, ‘emotional chastity’ is a MASSIVE topic in women’s Christian circles.
I think it depends to some extent on level of interest in sex. I'm a very mature lady, ok, I admit it, I'm old. But, if I get another opportunity for love, which I'm praying for, it's going to have to be a pretty short courtship and engagement because I am still very interested in intimacy within marriage. 😊Someone with a cooler libido might not find it as much of a struggle. We are all unique but God never gives us more than we can handle.
This is soooo incredible 👏👏❤️❤️❤️ im so greatful there are people like you posting this content seriously. I really wish i knew this theology of the body wayy earlier to not 'supress' it (and gain some horrible mental issues along the way) but gove this to god in that way is incredible ❤️

Everyone should know themselves and set appropriate boundaries.For some,even a hug would trigger lust. 1 Thessalonians 4:3-5 [3]For this is the will of God, your sanctification: That you should abstain from fornication: [4]That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour, [5]Not in the passion of lust, like the Gentiles that know not God:
Thank you so much this is so helpful I have been watching your videos , podcasts and following TOB material Blessings Dr. West! Would you consider French kissing or making out as a sin in engaged couples since at a certain point there would be there would arousal?
@@tinalettieri I've seen the video, that's not even the type of arousal he's talking about and it doesn't particularly matter because there is no biblical precept or prohibition which would suggest that sex is limited to marriage.
@Grokford The precepts are in the Torah. We believe that Jesus died so we could obtain forgiveness, but we are still to follow the teachings of what is sin and avoid it. Do a search in Leviticus to see what sexual relations are forbidden.

We're so glad it blessed you! Please pray for us that the TOB may reach many.
The call to self mastery is important and essential for celibacy in a courting relationship.
*for chastity, you mean
Can you please make a video on emotional chastity?
Have you read Sarah Swafford's book, Emotional Virtue? It's incredible!

Great videos, keep it up 👍

No, why would kissing be a sin?
Of course there's arousal, arousal is a natural part of most romantic relationships, it's not a moral signpost.
@@Grokford No, it's a natural part of marriage. It is to be controlled until then. listen about 4:00
Yes, listen to what he says at about 4:00.

Great video!
So. Me and my boyfriend lived as if we were engaged soon after we started dating
Thank you
Even though this is a catholic teaching can it be transferred over to a Christianity in general?
God calls all to be Catholic
@@thaddeusmugo8263 No
Of course… Catholics ARE CHRISTIANS!😂
Catholicism is the original Christian Church and institution, so yes
