Black and White Christian Morality
Cloths
Where do you draw the line with how you dress?
Sally is at the mall and she is looking for a skirt for church. Her options are between a tight short skirt a knee length skirt. Sally is keeping in mind that the guy she likes will be at church this Sunday.
Language
You stub your toe and it hurts like a mother what do you say? It is ok to draw the odd F bomb or swearword when you’re mad?
Physical boundaries
Your have some alone time with your significant other, and things start to get heated up at a rapid pace. Where do you draw the line with your physical boundaries, how do you stop, and how do you build accountability towards each other.
Why are things that used to be black and white, gray today?

hmmm - how bout some more comments - come on youth !!!
hey, I just came across you blog here. Some background...I am in my late 20s and have been married for 6 years.
The world is always going to try to get us to push the limits farther and farther, but Christians must be absolute on their beliefs.
I think there is a huge theological hole the teaching in this area. I have been going to church since grade school, and told - don't "do it" before marriage many times, but I was never taught how to avoid situations.
For example, several of the elders in the church would "shack up" before marriage - most definitely the norm. then they would tell us young people, "wait until marriage." The problem is my parent's generation has the philosophy, "If it feels good, do it" and "I can do it my own way without your help."
Fortunately, I had some grandparents that finally did instruct me when I was dating my future wife. The cared about us, making sure we were not together for long periods of time, and even chaperoned us a couple times. We learned many words of wisdom like "flee from tempatation" as paul says. I am thankful today for their guidance.
