Proverbs 30:18-19 “There are three things which are too wonderful for me, Yes, four which I do not understand: The way of an eagle in the air, The way of a serpent on a rock, The way of a ship in the midst of the sea, And the way of a man with a virgin.”

“The Way of a Man with a Maiden” I. God created the attraction between man and woman. Sarai and Rebekeh were “beautiful” (Gen. 12:11; 24:16). Rachel was beautiful of form and appearance.” (Gen. 29:17). Saul and David were said to be “handsome” (1 Sam. 9:2; 16:18). Joseph was “handsome in form and appearance” (Gen. 39:6). This attraction is a part of what God has created to draw men and women towards the marriage relationship.

“The Way of a Man with a Maiden” II. God established the “one flesh” relationship that is a part of marriage (Gen. 2:18-25). This phrase refers (at least in part) to the sexual relationship (1 Cor. 6:15-20). From the beginning this was intended for the marriage relationship. Before marriage it is “a thing which ought not to be done” (Gen. 34:1-7).

“The Way of a Man with a Maiden” III. Outside of marriage it is a thing which is forbidden (Lev. 20:10; Gal. 5:19-21). Marriage is provided to protect against fornication (1 Cor. 7:1-5). Behavior must be guarded to avoid this temptation. “Flee sexual immorality” (1 Cor. 6:18). The young man is warned to stay far away from this sin (Prov. 7:21-27).

“The Way of a Man with a Maiden” IV. Within marriage this is honorable (Heb. 13:4). It is not only for procreation. It is not sinful within marriage (Prov. 5:15-19). Outside of marriage “whoever touches her shall not be innocent.” (Prov. 6:20-29). Unscriptural second marriage is “adultery” (Luke 16:18).

“The Way of a Man with a Maiden” V. How should the Christian guard and preserve this beautiful part of the marriage relationship? If unmarried, commit yourself to keep yourself pure. Don’t put yourself in dangerous situations Make your commitment clear to your boyfriend or girlfriend Don’t let yourself be pressured into sin.

“The Way of a Man with a Maiden” V. How should the Christian guard and preserve this beautiful part of the marriage relationship? If you are married, guard yourself and remember your promise. “… Keeping myself only to you, as long as we both shall live.” Don’t get too close to those of the opposite sex. Be the best mate you can be, and be content with your God-given mate.
