The voice of the body is feeling; the body communicates through feelings.
The voice of the soul is reason/intellect; the soul communicates through reason and intellect.
The voice of the spirit is conscience/intuition; the spirit communicates through conscience and intuition.
You may know that engaging in sexual relations with someone of the opposite sex before marriage is not right. However, if you allow your feelings to be ignited, it can overpower your will, and even when your conscience is talking (urging you not to proceed further), you'll still go ahead to do it.
FEELINGS can indeed be more powerful than WILL in certain circumstances. This is why many people KNOW what is right, yet still choose to DO what is wrong.
For this reason, it is wise to refrain from sexual activity until marriage. Once you begin to engage in sexual relations, the ensuing pleasure can:
_ Diminish your reasoning: You may start to convince yourself that premarital sex is acceptable.
- Undermine your will: You might find it increasingly difficult to resist the urge for premarital sex, even if you truly want to.
_Silence your conscience. Even when your spirit and the Holy Spirit is reprimanding you, you'll turn a deaf ear and choose not to listen, until you hit the rocks.
Therefore, embrace sexual purity. It offers safety and comes with no regrets.
Shalom🤎
