I was just thinking that what if a person goes their whole life by being a virgin and does not get married in the future? Not because they love God and all but like if their wish or dream doesn't happen when they want to get married and it doesn't happen. Forgive me if I'm wrong but what if a person that has lost their virginity just does not keep sleeping around with different people and have sex wisely?

I’m interested to see where we get the idea of sex outside of marriage and “safe sex”. I can assure you these are not Biblical concepts; sorry.

No matter what your religion, it's impossible to live a sinless life. This is obviously my own, personal opinion, but if you are an adult, you can have sex wisely. And enjoy it, guiltfree. Sex came before any of the "laws." It is only natural. Be safe, have fun.

Truth tainted with lies. When was this tactic first used?

God reveals His truth to us throughout Scripture. Following is only one example which is applicable to this topic.

Romans 1: 18-25
Quote:
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. 20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: 21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, 23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. 24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: 25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. (KJV, emphasis added)

No one can live a sinless life. But it's pretty easy to avoid having sex.
