2 Matthew 5 27"You have heard that it was said, 'Do not commit adultery.' 28But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 29If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. 30And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell.

3 When it comes to sex, many – if not most – emerging adults see little connection between their lives now before settling down and the lives they will live later after having settled down. Now they can party, hook up with strangers, and generally play at being wild. Later, when they settle down they’ll be sober, faithful, and responsible adults. The assumption seems to be “whatever happens in my early twenties stays in my early twenties”

It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. 30And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell.

6 “Most people, if they have really learned to look into their own hearts, would know that they do want, and want acutely, something that cannot be had in this world. The longings which arise in us when we first fall in love are longings that no marriage can really satisfy.” CS Lewis

7 “A man’s physical hunger does not prove that that man will get any bread: he may die of starvation on a raft in the Atlantic. But surely a man’s hunger does prove that he comes of a race which repairs its body by eating, and inhabits a world where eatable substances exist.” CS Lewis
