I am so glad you made this video 😆 I have heard this verse used for the wrong reasons too... and it did not sit well with me, the key word for me was "self-control" and all the risks involved when people just go for it!! The way you put it has made me giggle, but you are right in all you said. A text out of context, becomes a pretext. We are called to be alert, wise and use discernment! Thank you once again 🤗
Very interesting to hear your insights on this topic, thank you. I've never heard that scripture explained in proper context before. Marriage should never be rushed into because the cost of choosing unwisely is crushing, the exit options are very few, and the financial cost is high. This doesn't even take into consideration the impact of having children with an unwisely chosen spouse. Very few of us have any idea what a healthy relationship looks like, what men and women want, how they think and what they need. More need to heed the red flags that are evident before they become legally bound to each other. Women have been fed a poisonous diet of Disney fairytales since childhood that gives them unrealistic expectations of men and marriage. They aren't taught to discern a man who is emotionally immature. Men aren't taught to discern controlling, manipulative and cruel women who are operating a facade to ensnare them into marriage (and misery). There seems to be as many narcissists in the church as outside it. Your point about exercising self control before being married is well made. Self control and the building of trust, feeling safe and being able to develop a deep emotional bond are inextricably linked.
@@GaryoXGaming 😼😂 I would look for shared core values (being equally yoked is not just faith but other core values as well), how willing you each are and able to manage your areas of key differences. Patterns of communication and conflict resolution as well…to name a few
Sounds like this person doesn’t have self-control that they’re gonna be a cheater, on down the line in their marriage. There is always somebody that’s cuter, sexier, more good looking, etc., they need to have self-control, self-discipline, self-assurance, etc.
Great Information 🤔🙏🏽
very informative and funny at the same time!

Do you make videos for young adults on sexual issues and sexual sin?
Like Biblical advice, I mean.
@@kvelez I don’t do a lot of videos on that as most on this channel are directed at married couples. Might be worth looking into
As a visually impaired man, what do you say to a guy like me that has a hard time attracting a mate?
Well im 40 man, virgin, no experience with women, no skills, no money, no house, no job, no assets ect
