Being a virgin nowadays is like being an MMA champion: EVERYONE wants to take your belt away. Being a male doesn't shield you from this because many women have taken the sexual double standard and thrown it headlong through a plate-glass window. In other words, there is a rising population of "playeresses" who are just as aggressive and ruthless as men. In order to prepare you for what to expect, I am going to tell you about the two most common types of players: the striker and the grappler.
The ultimate goal of a striker is to go for the KO. In sexual terms, this would be the one night stand. A striker will change levels (i.e. modify their behavior to match what they think your "dream guy/girl" is) and use feints (i.e. pretend to actually want a relationship with you) to set up that one big punch or kick. Rest assured that when the knockout blow comes, it will be too fast for you to see it. You will basically wake up next to them in bed the next morning wondering how on earth they got you in the sack. To add insult to injury, that will probably be the last time you see them. After they have a "post-fight presser" with their perverted friends to brag about how they got your belt, they will forget you and move on to the next challenge. You can probably guess that most strikers are male.
The ultimate goal of a grappler is to get the submission. In sexual terms, this means either getting a sugar daddy/mama or a "boyfriend/girlfriend" who is really just a boy toy/friend-with-benefits. Like a highly skilled BJJ practitioner, they will wait patiently for an opportunity to take you to the ground (i.e. they will act like a well-meaning, platonic friend until they earn your trust and confidence). When this happens, they will maneuver you into the position that they want through subtle, precise movements until they get you into a submission hold (i.e. lure you into a relationship that is anything but platonic). Unlike strikers, who usually just knock you out and move on, grapplers won't let go until they make you tap (i.e. bleed you out of all of your money or all of your self-respect). Once this happens, they get bored and move on to the next challenge. It comes as no surprise that most grapplers are female.
While these two types of players have very different strategies, the key to beating them is the same. To find out how, read next week's blog post.

Marital MMA: Win The Undisputed Championship!
Are you ready to experience "The Sexual Force Unleashed" and "Romantic World Peace" as a Marital Mixed Martials champion (a.k.a. godly husband/wife)? If so, there is one crucial first step you must make: you must give your life completely over to Christ.
Trying to win the Marital MMA championship without Christ is like training to beat Jon Jones or Ronda Rousey with Tae Bo videos. You'll get your butt kicked and look stupid in front of everybody in the audience. If you want to succeed, you need to join a training camp. And to become part of Team Immanuel, you must be born again.
The best part about being a member of Team Immanuel is that you can't get kicked out or cut. Once you join, Christ will be the Lord of your life for all of eternity. Think head coach to the infinite power! If you are sincerely willing to leave your life behind and follow Him into eternity, acknowledge your sin. Repent. Accept Christ's death on the cross and resurrection as payment for your sins so that He can become your personal Savior. Once He becomes your personal Savior, then He will do whatever it takes to turn you into a Marital MMA champion (if you let Him).
That being said, joining Team Immanuel is one thing. Winning your division's Marital MMA title is another. If you constantly show up late, train halfheartedly, and act like a jerk to your teammates, Christ won't kick you out. He'll simply bench you. And if you don't fight, you can't win the title. So if you really want to excel in Marital MMA, and make the most of your membership to Team Immanuel, go all out every time you come to the gym. Only then will you truly experience the joy of being a Marital Mixed Martial Artist and start winning battles in the cage of this world.
Of course, nobody is ever handed a championship. You have to earn it. Christ will test your resolve by matching you up against the most ruthless foes you can imagine. The foes on the way to a Christ-centered marriage are numerous, but they tend to fall into five categories. These are:
1) The players/playeresses
2) Your peers
3) The culture/world
4) The demonic kingdom
5) The reigning champion of your division, who will be revealed later (hint: it's not Satan)
I will cover these opponents in depth over the next five posts. However, while they all have their unique strengths and weaknesses, the key to beating them is the same. If you fight them through the power of Christ, you will eventually succeed.
Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." (NKJV)

Resurrected Virgins: The North Stars Of The Christian Faith
For centuries, sailors used the stars of the night sky to guide them to safe harbors as they traveled through the darkness. The most important of these is Polaris, the North Star. Polaris is not only the brightest star that appears at night: it's also the only one which does not move. Those who wait until marriage for their first sexual encounter (provided that their marriage is Christ-centered and between one man and one woman) will be as the sun, the star which gives life to the creatures of the earth. For those who have failed, becoming the sun is an option that is sadly no longer open to them. However, through repentance, faith, and love, they can still become Polaris, the North Star, through the only one who can bring their sexuality back to life: Jesus Christ.
As those of you who have had premarital sex already know, there's no returning to Eden. Once you lose your V-card, it's gone. Nothing that you do can get it back. However, thanks to what Christ did for us on the cross, you can enter the New Jerusalem, the holy city which is the final paradise for all who believe in Him. If you repent of your sin and give your life to Christ, He will heal and restore your whole being, including your sexuality. Even though He may not make all of your problems go away (i.e. you will probably still have to deal with baby momma drama, deadbeat dads, or medical bills related to what you did), He will give you "World Peace Of The Soul" and "The Spiritual Force Unleashed" through eternal fusion with Him, transforming you into a resurrected virgin. Out of His mercy, He may still allow you to experience "The Sexual Force Unleashed" and "Romantic World Peace" within a Christ-centered marriage. I even read about a former porn star who became born-again and was miraculously cured of an STD that she had contracted, although this is extremely rare. Now, depending on your particular circumstance, getting another chance at "The Sexual Force Unleashed" and "Romantic World Peace" is not guaranteed. However, through Christ, all things are possible. At the very least, if you let Him, He will transform you into a human "North Star" who will guide the lost sailors (i.e. unbelievers) of the world into the safe harbor of His Salvation through your testimony.
On a side note, I want to make it clear that you are ONLY responsible for sexual encounters that you consented to. If someone (be they male or female) forced sex onto you, assaulted you while you were drunk, or molested you when you were a defenseless child, you are not to blame for the encounter. If that has happened, I strongly urge you to allow Christ to heal you through a saving relationship with Him, godly therapy, and a church small group which is SAFE, OPEN and RESPECTS CONFIDENTIALITY. Contrary to popular belief, these do exist. Just be aware that you may have to look harder for support if you are a male victim.
For those of you who have consented to forbidden sex (which is any sex before or outside of a marriage between one man and one woman), for whatever reason, then you can only experience a resurrected sexuality if you take responsibility for your participation in that encounter. It takes two to tango, especially if the tango happens to be "horizontal" and "clothing optional." If you accept responsibility for what you did, repent, and give your sexuality and life over to Christ, then He can truly transform you into Polaris, the brightest star in the night sky.
John 11: 25 "Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die;" (NIV)

How To Receive The Purity Which Is Necessary To Experience The Full Power Of Human Fusion
To experience the full power of human fusion within marriage, and to reap the benefits of "The Sexual Force Unleashed" and "Romantic World Peace", you must become pure. However, purity is not gained through the means that you think.
You do not become pure through following a bunch of rules and regulations. Abstaining from immoral behavior without dealing with your heart's horny fantasies is like exercising at a gym that is sandwiched between a pizzeria and an ice cream shop. You may resist the urge to indulge for a while, but sooner or later, you will slip. When you do, you will fall. Hard. Not least because that smoking hot 19-year-old babe /totally ripped 27-year-old stud who called your bluff will be on top of you.
You do not become pure through obeying your parents or acting good to fit in with your strict, traditional peers (assuming that you grew up in that kind of culture/subculture). Believing that you're a moral and chaste person because you can control yourself when Mom and Dad are watching your every move is like believing that you're a great swimmer because you can stay afloat in your backyard swimming pool. It's easy to keep your head above water when your feet can touch the bottom. However, God will eventually put you to the test by throwing you into the ocean (i.e. the real world). And in the ocean of the real world, those who can't swim either:
A) Drown in addictions such as hardcore porn or "romance" e-books (a.k.a. hardcore porn for women).
B) Become shark food for the players and playeresses who make "Jaws" look like "Finding Nemo."
You do not become pure through trying to win the heart of your "true love." It may sound chivalrous and romantic to try to prove yourself worthy of some virgin princess or Prince Charming. However, what you are actually doing is turning that person into a marital trophy or championship belt. You are like a guy who is only training in the martial arts to win a UFC title or a girl who is only dieting to win "America's Next Top Model." You'll either:
A) Get discouraged and quit when you realize just how ruthless your competitors for Mr./Miss Perfect are (and realize that these competitors won't necessarily stop when you are dating, courting, or married to this person).
B) Become disillusioned when Mr./Miss Perfect turn out to be just as human (and screwed-up) as you are. Or worse.
C) Make an idol out of Mr./Miss Perfect, which will leave you devastated if you ever lose them (i.e. they dump you or die young)
So how do you REALLY stay pure before marriage? It's actually very simple.
YOU WILL ONLY BECOME PURE IF YOU DECIDE IN YOUR HEART THAT YOU WOULD RATHER DIE THAN SIN AGAINST JESUS!!!!
You cannot achieve purity. You must receive it from Christ. If you try to get it on your own, you will fail. At best, you will put on a fake smiley face for the rest of the world while your forbidden urges rape your heart, mind, and soul. However, if you welcome Christ into your life, and are willing to die for Him, you will succeed. He will cast out your forbidden urges, give you the strength to conquer temptation, and provide you with healing that you never thought was possible.
Philippians 4:13, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." (NKJV)
So do you have Christ in your life? Are you willing to die for Him? If so, you will succeed. Even if you have failed in the past, Christ can raise your sexuality from the dead and give you a romantic rebirth. To find out how, read next week's post.

Romantic World Peace: What You Gain When You Give Up Forbidden Sex
When two people "become one flesh" (i.e., have sex), human fusion results. Like nuclear fusion, human fusion cannot be contained by mankind. That being said, there is one man-made device which does use nuclear fusion: an ATOMIC BOMB!
An atomic bomb is the most powerful weapon on planet earth. When it is detonated, the immediate explosion is so catastrophic that Oppenheimer, one of its creators, (as well as Linkin Park more recently in their song, "The Catalyst") compared it to the fire of a thousand suns. Even worse, the nuclear fallout permanently contaminates the surrounding environment. Likewise, when you have forbidden sex (which is ANY sexual encounter outside of a marriage between one man and one woman), you set off a social atomic bomb. Your relationship with that person will end in the emotional fire of a thousand suns. Not to mention that there will be relational "nuclear fallout" that will contaminate you, your ex and everyone who is close to you two for years. We're talking baby momma drama, marital problems with your future spouse (if you even get married), deadbeat dads who don't pay child support, troubled kids, etc. On top of that, the relatives and mutual friends of you and your ex will probably wind up taking sides and going at each others' throats like rival teams on "The Ultimate Fighter."
However, I have some very good news.
When you refuse to engage in forbidden sex, you disarm the atomic bomb and create "ROMANTIC WORLD PEACE"!
Matthew 5:9, "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God."
What does "Romantic World Peace" look like?
1)Emotional stability: You won't have a ton of baggage to drag into your future marriage.
2) Mental focus: You won't constantly compare your future spouse to previous hotties/studs that you "got busy with" in high school/college.
3) Physical health: Freaky microorganisms won't go biologically MMA on your intimate organs.
4) Social Harmony: You will be less likely to be caught in a social civil war between your friends and your ex's friends.
5) Spiritual Unity: You and your future wife will be able to enjoy "The Sexual Force Unleashed" because Christ will be empowering your sexual encounters.
So would you rather have "Romantic World Peace"? Or become a human weapon of mass destruction? If you would rather be a peacemaker, read next week's post to find out the only way to truly live a life of sexual purity.

Paradise Lost: What You Really Lose When You Turn In Your V-Card Before Marriage
When most people think about the consequences of forbidden sex, STDs, abortions gone awry, and unwanted pregnancies come to mind. While you should be concerned about those things, the greatest long-term consequence of forbidden sex is far more severe. If you decide to give in to your heart's darkest desires (and let's just face it, we all have those), there is no condom or pill strong enough to prevent it from happening.
When you give up your V-Card before you are married, you are giving up your chance to fully experience "The Sexual Force Unleashed" with your opposite gender best friend. In other words, your only shot at enjoying a lifetime in a complete, intimate paradise will be LOST FOREVER!!!!
God designed sex to make a man and woman "one flesh" within marriage.
Genesis 2: 24 "That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh." (NIV)
This is essentially the human version of nuclear fusion. Just like fusion is the most powerful energy source in the universe (one that still cannot be contained by mankind), marital sex is the most powerful energy source in human relationships. In fact, when utilized in the manner that God designed it, marital intimacy becomes "The Sexual Force Unleashed." It is so amazing that it can't truly be contained by mankind, either (we'll get to that in later posts).
The only way for you to fully experience "human fusion" is for there to be no barriers between you and your spouse. Only then can you two be combined and experience a lifetime of "The Sexual Force Unleashed." With that in mind, how can we possibly experience it with barriers between us such as:
-That smoking hot babe who lived down the hall from you freshman year?
-That handsome 27-year-old lawyer with the Lexus who you REALLY thought was in love with you during your first year in college?
-The stacked office secretary whom you graciously escorted to her apartment after happy hour? You know, to "be a gentleman."
-Your bff's older brother with the six-pack abs who you "hung out with" at her graduation party? Hey, that upstairs bedroom was the perfect place to get away from the noise and "chill", right?
-You get the idea...
Fusion can only occur if atoms are combined. Likewise, sexual fusion can only occur if a husband and wife are combined. This can only happen if there are no barriers between them. When it does, the couple will experience "The Sexual Force Unleashed", and be empowered not only to truly love each other, but to be phenomenal parents to their children, an amazing source of support for their friends, and dedicated, beneficial members of their church and the community at large.
Are you willing to make any sacrifice necessary to experience "The Sexual Force Unleashed" within your marriage? If so, read my next post to find out what you really gain when you give up forbidden sex.

Virgin Fight Club: Protect Your V-Card
It's no secret that virginity is no longer prized in America and the rest of Western civilization. In fact, if you say that you are waiting until marriage, you are either seen as:
A) A religious nutcase.
B) An exotic animal to be killed, skinned, and worn as a sexual "fur coat" by some player/cougar-in-training who wants to stroke their ego and impress their perverted friends.
This is especially true if you are a guy, since the stereotypical male is portrayed as sex-crazed zealot who is willing to lie, cheat, and steal in the name of their patron goddess, "Vajayjay Sanctus."
Why has our society become obsessed with forbidden sex?
1) Contrary to what many churches believe, sex is fun. In fact, God designed it as the ultimate coed adventure between a married man and woman.
Proverbs 5:18-19 "May your fountain be blessed, and may you rejoice in the wife of your youth. A loving doe, a graceful deer—may her breasts satisfy you always, may you ever be intoxicated with her love." (NIV)
Since sex is fun, it's only natural that we, as humans, are interested in it.
2) Contrary to what our society believes, the entire human race (including myself) is evil. Even though being mistreated or misinformed may aggravate the problem, we don't need that to happen for us to become bad. We are evil because we enjoy it. It makes us happy.
Jeremiah 17:9 "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?" (KJV)
In other words, we are obsessed with forbidden sex because, to the human heart, evil + fun = "freaking sweet"! However, there is one crucial fact that society doesn't want you to know and which the church simply expects you to figure out if they just mention it in passing.
YOU CAN ONLY BE A VIRGIN ONCE!
Your virginity is like your life. You only get one, and the world is full of people who want you to waste it in the pursuit of something completely pointless or take it away from you. In light of this, isn't your virginity worth protecting? Isn't your virginity worth saving for your husband/wife, the one who truly deserves it?
I believe it is. More importantly, so does Christ.
Matthew 19:4 “Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’ and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’?" (NIV)
Jesus has made it very clear: "becoming one flesh" (i.e. sex) is only meant for the marital relationship. Since sex was Christ's idea, we better figure out how He designed it so that we can enjoy it to the fullest extent possible. To figure out how to use this powerful tool for Christ's glory, keep your eye on this blog for more "Virgin Fight Club" posts.

Since sex is fun, it's only natural that we, as humans, are interested in it.
2) Contrary to what our society believes, the entire human race (including myself) is evil. Even though being mistreated or misinformed may aggravate the problem, we don't need that to happen for us to become bad. We are evil because we enjoy it. It makes us happy.
Jeremiah 17:9 "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?" (KJV)
In other words, we are obsessed with forbidden sex because, to the human heart, evil + fun = "freaking sweet"! However, there is one crucial fact that society doesn't want you to know and which the church simply expects you to figure out if they just mention it in passing.
YOU CAN ONLY BE A VIRGIN ONCE!
Your virginity is like your life. You only get one, and the world is full of people who want you to waste it in the pursuit of something completely pointless or take it away from you. In light of this, isn't your virginity worth protecting? Isn't your virginity worth saving for your husband/wife, the one who truly deserves it?
I believe it is. More importantly, so does Christ.
Matthew 19:4 “Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’ and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’?" (NIV)
Jesus has made it very clear: "becoming one flesh" (i.e. sex) is only meant for the marital relationship. Since sex was Christ's idea, we better figure out how He designed it so that we can enjoy it to the fullest extent possible.
