something like that. don’t tell me that she didn’t know what she was doing - at 19.
I thought I knew what I was doing at 19. I was hedonistic, and the future held nothing but more pleasure and fun. Thank God no one has pictures, but I have had to answer some tough questions, and have to live with having hurt people. I’m forgiven, but still have to deal with consequences.
I hope this girl (that’s what she is, if not legally) can show the world that she regrets her mistake and has repented, and somehow turns this into a “don’t do what I did, get closer to God” campaign.
I taught our son, who made his decision for Christ at age 14, that upon Adam and Eve being banished from the garden, woman was given such strong sexual desire that she would cave in to the man despite the impending extreme discomfort that would result. Therefore, the man, being the spiritual leader of his household, (that would be any relationship with girls) is responsible for her chastity.
I’m realistic that girls must also put the utmost effort into maintaining their purity. As a youth leader in our church years ago, I pressed the issue, and encouraged all the teens to not allow themselves the privacy that can lead to tragedy.
Too much in this society, the girl is a “tramp” if she gives in to the “stud”. Right is wrong, and wrong is right.
