Author	Thread: PURITY?
Admin	PURITY? Posted : 3 Feb, 2012 05:19 AM The single men and women, teens in my church are embarking on getting purity rings after some intensive study and prayer on the subject and what the bible (the final authority) says about it. Then we are coming together for a small prayer ceremony. this got me thinking... if you wore a purity ring what would it mean to you? You might be reading this and think "Duh remain pure" but after reading many posts, conversing with many believers and reading blogs about Christian relationships and this matter there seems to be a disconnect. There actually seems to have "varying degrees" of purity. which baffles me exceedingly! In my mind it doesn't compute. Men what are you thoughts? As a man what does purity to you signify and would you make sch a commitment? (Ladies I am posting this over on the "Ask a Girl" side also) God Bless. Post Reply

For me to wear such a ring, would seem somehow prideful (to me at least), as I've already made that commitment and the ring would mainly serve to make that choice visible to others. Had I not yet made the commitment or if I was struggling with it, the ring could serve as a helpful reminder to "be good". In that case, I would want more than just the ring to help me be accountable though. Post Reply

As far a purity in general. It only existed in one person that walked this earth. No one has any thing to say that can dispute this. Isaiah 64:6 But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousness's are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away. We can only strive for purity. Post Reply

It has also something to do with the way a woman carries herself and how she interacts with proletariat particurlarly the opposite sex. You don't have to act like a nun, but you know the point I am making. Post Reply
