1
00:00:01,700 --> 00:00:05,700
This piece of sellotape 
represents your sexual intimacy 

2
00:00:05,700 --> 00:00:12,000
with another human being. 
If I stick the piece of tape on 

3
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:15,000
my arm like this and I leave it 
alone. 

4
00:00:15,100 --> 00:00:17,200
It will stay there forever. 
If you like. 

5
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:19,200
It's become one flesh. 
It's bound. 

6
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:21,100
It's stuck there. 
It's not going anywhere. 

7
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:23,000
But watch what happens when I do
this. 

8
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:26,900
Okay, I stick it on another arm.
Okay, is stuck down and yeah, it

9
00:00:26,900 --> 00:00:29,800
will last for a good amount of 
time but not as strong as it was

10
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:32,100
before. 
So what happens if I do it again

11
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:39,300
and again, And again, what's 
going to happen by the 6th 7th 

12
00:00:39,300 --> 00:00:42,000
8th time. 
Eventually this piece of tape 

13
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:44,100
will not be able to stick to 
anything at all. 

14
00:00:44,100 --> 00:00:46,500
And my dear friends, that is 
what it is. 

15
00:00:46,500 --> 00:00:49,600
Like when you and I give our 
bodies to other people, you see 

16
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:53,500
we were designed to be bound 
with one flesh with one person 

17
00:00:53,500 --> 00:00:55,900
for life. 
And the more people we keep 

18
00:00:55,900 --> 00:00:58,800
going with, the more people. 
We keep giving a piece of our 

19
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:01,500
love to the harder. 
It is to have a lasting 

20
00:01:01,500 --> 00:01:03,300
relationship. 
Perhaps there's someone watching

21
00:01:03,300 --> 00:01:07,000
this now and you You feel like 
this piece of tape, you know, 

22
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,400
you've made a mess. 
You've been from person to 

23
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:11,600
person to person. 
Is there any hope for you? 

24
00:01:12,100 --> 00:01:13,700
Well, actually. 
Yes, there is. 

25
00:01:13,700 --> 00:01:16,500
Hope you see. 
Jesus Christ can come along and 

26
00:01:16,500 --> 00:01:19,500
he can be the glue because of 
the Cross, because he died for 

27
00:01:19,500 --> 00:01:21,900
Sinners. 
He can be the glue, which binds 

28
00:01:21,900 --> 00:01:25,100
you to another person, your 
husband or your wife and he can 

29
00:01:25,100 --> 00:01:28,600
join you there forever because 
what God has joined together, 

30
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:32,800
let no man separate. 
So if you put your trust in the 

31
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:37,800
Lord Jesus Christ, Can close you
and his righteousness though? 

32
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:39,600
You're naked though. 
You're ashamed though. 

33
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,800
You feel dirty. 
He can cover you with his 

34
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:44,700
garments. 
And did you know this? 

35
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:48,700
His cloak of righteousness is a 
one size which fits all in a 

36
00:01:48,708 --> 00:01:50,900
moment's time. 
I'm going to share with you. 

37
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:55,100
My biggest regret that I've ever
made in life, and I'll be honest

38
00:01:55,100 --> 00:01:56,400
with you. 
I am quite scared. 

39
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,200
What some of you are going to 
think of me once I open up about

40
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:04,100
this, but if it means that just 
one person watches this video, 

41
00:02:04,300 --> 00:02:08,199
learns from My mistake, it'll be
worth all of the embarrassment 

42
00:02:08,199 --> 00:02:09,600
and shame. 
Before I do that. 

43
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:13,000
Could I just read to you a verse
which very sadly, I ignored and 

44
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:18,300
I knew about it as a young man. 
It's from Song of Solomon 8:4 

45
00:02:18,300 --> 00:02:22,900
and it says, I charge you o 
Daughters of Jerusalem. 

46
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,700
Do not stir up. 
Nor awaken love until it 

47
00:02:26,700 --> 00:02:29,200
pleases. 
So in other words, there's a 

48
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:34,100
precious love which lives within
your heart and it's asleep right

49
00:02:34,100 --> 00:02:38,200
now, if Virgin that love is 
asleep right now. 

50
00:02:38,900 --> 00:02:43,300
And one day, the Bible says, 
there is a time to wake it up. 

51
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,900
But only, when you look straight
into the eyes of your husband, 

52
00:02:46,900 --> 00:02:49,400
only of the day, when you look 
straight into the eyes of your 

53
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,500
wife, so I did promise you that 
I would share something quite 

54
00:02:52,500 --> 00:02:55,500
personal with you right now. 
So, here we go. 

55
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:58,700
This morning. 
I looked at my wife, Emma. 

56
00:02:58,700 --> 00:03:02,500
And I said to her, I'm not sure 
I can make this video today. 

57
00:03:02,500 --> 00:03:04,800
I've been watching these videos 
of other Christian you 

58
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:06,200
YouTubers. 
And they've covered this 

59
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,800
particular topic, but every 
single one of the protected 

60
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,600
their virginity, every single 
one of them, didn't lose it 

61
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:15,800
before marriage. 
And so I just feel like a 

62
00:03:15,808 --> 00:03:18,400
hypocrite. 
What can I tell the people about

63
00:03:18,500 --> 00:03:21,700
this message? 
But Emma said no, remember, 

64
00:03:21,700 --> 00:03:25,500
David, and Bathsheba remember, 
all those of messed up, you do 

65
00:03:25,500 --> 00:03:28,500
need to make this video today. 
So here we are. 

66
00:03:28,500 --> 00:03:32,000
I'm going to tell you what 
happened to me when I was 

67
00:03:32,100 --> 00:03:34,700
growing up. 
I really did struggle as a Young

68
00:03:34,700 --> 00:03:37,400
Man. 
Socially and I was quite awkward

69
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:41,000
and shy particularly around 
girls and all of my friends. 

70
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:44,700
They got girlfriends when they 
were 15 16 years old. 

71
00:03:44,700 --> 00:03:47,500
And I was good at sports are 
hung around with them, but I 

72
00:03:47,500 --> 00:03:52,000
never could for some reason, get
a girlfriends go on dates with a

73
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,000
girl and then she'd end it. 
I remember once at high school. 

74
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,900
I kissed a girl on a date and I 
walked out into the yard the 

75
00:03:58,900 --> 00:04:02,000
next morning and this big group 
of people were just standing 

76
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,800
around laughing at how bad I was
at kissing. 

77
00:04:04,900 --> 00:04:09,700
And so really basically, I was a
loser growing up and all the 

78
00:04:09,700 --> 00:04:11,700
years. 
I really tried to build up 

79
00:04:11,700 --> 00:04:15,900
confidence because this feeling 
of wanting to be normal. 

80
00:04:15,900 --> 00:04:19,800
This feeling of wanting to be 
loved and accepted it never left

81
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:21,500
me. 
So that when I went to 

82
00:04:21,500 --> 00:04:28,100
University, I met someone and 
she was very beautiful and I 

83
00:04:28,100 --> 00:04:31,900
fell in love and we did what 
most couples do in this 21st 

84
00:04:31,900 --> 00:04:35,000
century. 
But I remember that night, when 

85
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:40,400
I lost my virginity, I went into
the kitchen, and I can remember 

86
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,600
this, like, it was yesterday. 
I fell down onto my knees. 

87
00:04:44,500 --> 00:04:47,700
And I just cried and cried, 
Lord. 

88
00:04:47,700 --> 00:04:48,700
What have I done? 
Wrong. 

89
00:04:48,700 --> 00:04:52,200
And is all I can say, is this, 
this goal, this dream that I was

90
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,500
chasing after. 
Like I wanted this more than 

91
00:04:54,500 --> 00:04:57,800
money or success. 
I wanted to lose my virginity to

92
00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:01,800
the right person and to be in a 
relationship like everyone else.

93
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:06,500
And once I got Got it. 
I felt totally empty, totally 

94
00:05:06,500 --> 00:05:09,000
broken. 
And it was actually the biggest 

95
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,200
mistake I ever made in my whole 
entire life. 

96
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,700
I was brought up a Christian mom
and dad taught me the Bible. 

97
00:05:15,700 --> 00:05:19,300
And I knew what was right. 
I knew that verse that we read 

98
00:05:19,300 --> 00:05:25,800
before, but I didn't have a it. 
You know, we often hear stories 

99
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:29,300
of Christian women saying they 
wish they waited until they got 

100
00:05:29,300 --> 00:05:30,900
married. 
Well, here you are. 

101
00:05:30,900 --> 00:05:33,700
Here's a Christian man. 
A red-blooded man, looking you 

102
00:05:33,707 --> 00:05:36,600
in the eyes and saying I wish I 
waited. 

103
00:05:37,100 --> 00:05:40,400
I wish I didn't disobey God, my 
dear brothers. 

104
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:44,000
My dear sisters, if you're 
listening to this right now and 

105
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:48,800
you still have that precious 
gift of virginity, I plead with 

106
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:52,000
you, I beg you this. 
Very day guard. 

107
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:55,600
It with your very life. 
Is one day you're going to make 

108
00:05:55,700 --> 00:05:59,000
your spouse very happy. 
When you look them in the eyes 

109
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:03,700
on your wedding night. 
And you say, only you only you, 

110
00:06:03,700 --> 00:06:09,000
I've only ever loved you. 
I've only ever been with you but

111
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,800
perhaps now you're watching this
video and you're like me and 

112
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:16,000
you've made a mess. 
Well, I just want to remind you 

113
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:20,000
the blood of Christ cleanses us 
from all sin. 

114
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,800
And though we've made a mess. 
There is a God who dwells in the

115
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:24,900
heavens above? 
Or who can restore to you the 

116
00:06:24,900 --> 00:06:26,800
years which the locusts have 
eaten. 

117
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,800
So today this very day. 
If you are living in sexual sin,

118
00:06:31,100 --> 00:06:35,300
chase after Purity today, it's 
never too late to seek to be 

119
00:06:35,300 --> 00:06:36,600
pure. 
Whatever you do. 

120
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:37,800
Don't think I've done it. 
Once. 

121
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:38,500
I've done it. 
Twice. 

122
00:06:38,500 --> 00:06:41,300
What's the good now? 
Know is still important today. 

123
00:06:41,500 --> 00:06:44,400
God sees your heart. 
And as I said earlier, God can 

124
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,600
join you together with a husband
or wife, and they will forgive 

125
00:06:47,700 --> 00:06:49,600
the grace of God is a beautiful 
thing. 

126
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:54,000
And I know I said before that I 
regret doing it and I do In some

127
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:57,700
ways, I'm glad these things have
happened to me because they keep

128
00:06:57,700 --> 00:06:58,500
you. 
Humble. 

129
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,600
You, remember where your feet 
have been, you remember? 

130
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:05,800
Just what a scumbag you are and 
how only by the grace of God, 

131
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,400
Only by Jesus death and 
Resurrection. 

132
00:07:08,500 --> 00:07:12,300
Can I ever get to heaven? 
Because left to my own devices? 

133
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:16,300
I'm just a sinner who is 
rebellious and Wicked at heart. 

134
00:07:16,900 --> 00:07:19,600
I think I'm going to make a few 
more videos on Christian dating 

135
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:21,600
and Christian marriage, but I've
