Positive Reasons for Purity

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: What are some positive motivations for staying morally pure?

Woman 1: I want to stay pure for my future husband.

Man 1: I don’t want to worry about diseases all the time.

Woman 2: I don’t want to always be afraid of getting caught.

Nancy: I’m Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth, with Seeking Him.

You know, the Bible’s perspective on purity has gotten a bad rap as repressive and outdated, but really, nothing could be further from the truth. A commitment to moral purity can be a huge step toward personal revival, deep joy, and true freedom.

Man 2: I fight temptation because I love my wife.

Woman 3: I love my husband.

Woman 4: I want my kids to grow up in a stable home.

Man 3: Probably because younger people are watching me.

Nancy: In 1 Thessalonians Paul says, “For God has not called us for impurity, but in holiness. Therefore whoever disregards this, disregards not man but God.”

Man 2: I want to stay pure because I love God.

Nancy: Purity. It’s a wonderful result of seeking Him.
