00:00Okay, so to start today's video, I'm gonna ask you a question.
00:03Let's just say you went to put a movie on tonight and this scene showed up on your TV.
00:07Would you find this scene to be inappropriate?
00:09You're probably saying, what an outrageous question, Taylor.
00:12Obviously, that scene is not inappropriate.
00:14Well, in 1896, that was from a movie called The Kiss.
00:18And it contained what was regarded as the very first sex scene on film.
00:21And it caused an outrage from moviegoers, civic leaders, and religious leaders.
00:26They found this to be utterly shocking, obscene, and completely immoral.
00:30Now, I'm not gonna sit here and tell you that I agree with this because it's 2024
00:34and I find a kiss in a movie to be romantic and an act of love and certainly not pornographic.
00:40But it does make me think, how desensitized are we?
00:43Let's just say we took people from that era and we sat them down
00:46and we made them watch that scene from The Wolf of Wall Street with Leonardo DiCaprio and Margot Robbie.
00:51I honestly think they would faint.
00:54I watch a lot of black and white romance movies.
00:56And whenever a couple is about to get it on,
00:58they simply have them walk to the bedroom and slowly close the door.
01:02It said everything it needed to say.
01:04You obviously know what they went and did when that door closed.
01:07But you didn't watch them do it.
01:09But, obviously, if you own a Netflix account in 2024, we are all watching people do it.
01:14It's weird.
01:14Since the movie The Kiss, we have traveled very far.
01:17It's clear that the desensitization has grown and is continuing to grow.
01:22There honestly was a point in time where I was like,
01:23Eh, what are you gonna do?
01:24It's Hollywood. Just skip the scene.
01:26But now, it seems that we cannot escape from this unless we seriously strive to.
01:31For instance, I'll be watching a movie and eight minutes in,
01:33it will cut to a scene of two people doing it.
01:36I don't even get a warning.
01:37And I also can't help but notice that majority of the time Hollywood shows us two people having sex in a movie,
01:42it's almost never a married couple.
01:44It's almost always two people that have just met.
01:46But besides that, why are we all constantly being fed people having sex?
01:52I don't know.
01:53But it's clear that there's no getting away from watching two people have sex anymore.
01:57You could simply be shopping for an outfit for a date you have
02:00and get bombarded by anime porn on the side of your web browser.
02:03And I get it. Sex sells.
02:04That's why Hollywood does it.
02:05That's why brands do it.
02:06That's why girls are turning to OnlyFans left and right.
02:09There is serious money in it.
02:11And it works. And it sells.
02:12And that's why majority of the U.S. is driven by it.
02:15But like the majority of the things we talk about on this channel,
02:17I love to take a look at where we were versus where we are now.
02:21And compare the two.
02:22And see if we are on a good trajectory.
02:25Where are we headed?
02:26How are things going?
02:27Are we headed in the right direction?
02:30Are people happier?
02:31I can't help but personally feel that we have been on a downward decline ever since the 1960s.
02:37And we're obviously on a downward decline because of other areas as well.
02:40But I truly do feel a lot of what we're seeing today has arose from the development of the birth control pill.
02:45This gave women access to easy and reliable contraception.
02:49And granted women the ability to practice their sexuality without fear of pregnancy.
02:53So in other words, sex with no strings attached.
02:56On top of birth control being introduced during a movement that celebrated sexual immorality as a normal part of life,
03:01as the decade progressed, society's emphasis on virginity and marriage were slowly replaced
03:06by a celebration of single life and sexual exploration.
03:10And alongside this, Hugh Hefner put out a magazine that you've probably heard the name of before.
03:14It was during that time and it was called Playboy.
03:17It promoted bachelorhood and the singing single lifestyle.
03:20But guys, even looking at the porn that was once in the Playboy magazines,
03:24that is nothing compared to the porn that we have today.
03:28I think we've taken things to unimaginable heights.
03:31And we don't even realize it because it was slowly introduced to us.
03:35And over time we've become more and more desensitized to it.
03:38To the point where now we are casually watching two people having sex on our TV screens
03:42and we don't find anything wrong with that.
03:44Nudity and sex has never been so acceptable.
03:48We went from a time where virginity was valued, that modesty was valued,
03:52that sex was for married couples to spiritually bond and procreate,
03:56and it was beautiful.
03:57And we don't even need to go as far back as the 1800s to see that.
04:00If we just look at a picture of men and women in the 40s and 50s,
04:04where we still had sexual boundaries and morals,
04:06versus what we look like as a nation with no boundaries and morals,
04:10we just look so rough.
04:12The difference is so night and day.
04:15I know these phones had a lot to do with things as well
04:17because we are all lacking basic communication skills because of them.
04:21It seems the only way to really meet someone now is through a dating app.
04:23And guys, even the dating apps, they don't want you to actually meet the love of your life.
04:28They make more profit by you continuing to use the app for casual sex.
04:32That's why they promote it on their billboards.
04:34Bubble advertised just last month a sign that read,
04:37you know full well a vow of celibacy is not the answer.
04:41And another one that read,
04:42thou shall not give up on dating and become a nun.
04:46Seriously, what is going on?
04:49We have a world craving intimacy and believes that we receive that intimacy through sexual partners.
04:54And that's sad.
04:55Everything is just so backwards.
04:57And for me, I feel like it's so clear that we are on a path to destruction.
05:01For much of our culture today, it's just accepted that cheating and meaningless sex is normal.
05:07They don't seem to know what healthy intimacy is.
05:09And even though they're having plenty of sexual pleasure,
05:12their hearts are shielded from the love and intimacy they really need.
05:16Leaving more and more people confused and stuck in a pattern that isn't getting them anywhere.
05:21And the worst of it all is that we're sentencing our sons and daughters
05:25to repeat this dysfunctional behavior as they go out into the world.
05:28Continuing to raise kids with the notion that sex has no real meaning
05:32and therefore we should sleep with whomever we are desiring on a dating app.
05:36Having no clear boundaries and no clear definition on what's right and what's wrong.
05:40We just compare ourselves to monkeys and believe it's natural to live this way.
05:44We used to live in a time where sex was seen as a big deal.
05:47Where people acknowledged that there was a feeling of shame after sleeping with a complete stranger.
05:53As a nation, we have ignored shame and have embraced sexual immorality.
05:58We've turned away from all the values and morals that made this country the great country of America.
06:04The place everyone wanted to live.
06:06Now we don't live in America, we live in Sodom and Gomorrah.
06:09Because we want to feel good and we want to do whatever we want.
06:13And how's that working out for us?
06:14The way that seems right to the world is leading to destruction.
06:18It's almost like the Bible says that word for word.
06:21It's almost like our country and our mental health was doing so much better when we acknowledged God.
06:26Where we acknowledged the fact that we were all created by design.
06:29That sex isn't just intimacy, it's a bond between two people.
06:32And when you go out creating bonds with person after person after person, you're only hurting yourself.
06:38But it's almost like the Bible warns us about that and tells us what works and what does not work.
06:42And we're all getting to experience that in 2024.
06:45We are taught and told to ignore and suppress feelings of shame.
06:50That you only live once and you should explore your sexuality.
06:53And your therapist might tell you the same thing because they are paid and told to do so.
06:57Those that don't walk with God will tell you that what you do here doesn't matter.
07:01And who you sleep with and how many people you sleep with doesn't matter.
07:04But I promise you that's a lie from the devil and he is more active than you choose to believe.
07:08He's in the shows you watch, music you listen to, and he's behind the sexual liberation movement that has grown into what it is today.
07:14He is also behind the very popular birth control pill that has had adverse effects on many women that have been tricked into taking it.
07:20Feelings of shame may be suppressed more than ever, but what's right and what's wrong is written on our hearts by who designed us.
07:27After we lay naked with someone and that deed is over, there is shame.
07:31And guess what?
07:32This book that you may or may not believe holds any truth knows you better than you know you.
07:37God knows you better than you know you because he knew you before you were here.
07:40Even though our tiny little brains can't even begin to understand that, he loves you and he left you these words to tell you he loves you.
07:47But also to tell us what he doesn't love.
07:50And the same things he doesn't love are the same things that don't love you.
07:53The way that seems right to you does not love you.
07:56It hurts you and it hurts the person you're choosing to do this with.
07:59And that might sound really far-fetched to you.
08:01You may not have experienced much guilt to a careless sexual lifestyle, but that doesn't mean that it doesn't have any real repercussions.
08:07The Bible is very clear when it says that the sexual immoral will not inherit the kingdom of God.
08:12It doesn't just tell you to not engage in sexual immorality.
08:15It tells you to flee from it because it's different from any other sin in the Bible.
08:19I'm sure I will have many people in the comment section that find waiting for marriage to be outdated, ridiculous, and odd.
08:25That this is the way the world is now.
08:27And it may seem stupid to live the opposite the way the world is living and that you're giving so much up.
08:32But those who live opposite to the world are wise.
08:34And if you took even just a few minutes to read a bit of the book of Proverbs, you'd realize that.
08:39The Bible is also clear that whoever wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.
08:44And like I talked about in one of our most recent videos, we will all take our last breath.
08:49You will breathe in and then you will be gone.
08:51And then we will all face God.
08:52And you cannot say that you haven't been warned.
08:55If you do not have Jesus Christ as your lawyer on that day, you will be judged for every wicked thing that you have done while here on this earth.
09:02This earth is passing away and anyone who does not invite Jesus into their hearts is going to pass away with it.
09:08That being said, we will all continue to stumble and make poor choices.
09:12Whether that's with sexual immorality or anything else.
09:15But what's important is that you recognize that we are living an unholy life down here on this earth.
09:20Ask Jesus to forgive you of your sins and cleanse you of all unrighteousness.
09:24Then when you take that last breath, He is going to be standing right beside you.
09:28And all the charges will be dropped.
09:30If you'd like to make that decision right now, close your eyes and pray with me.
09:34You can even pause the video and read these words out loud by yourself.
09:37God it's me. If what this girl is saying is true, I want to know you.
09:40I acknowledge that I have been living in sin.
09:43Please forgive me for any sins I have committed.
09:45Please help me walk into what you have for me.
09:48Help me live for you and not for this world.
09:51I give my life to you Jesus. Amen.
09:53So this is the first video I have created on a series on purity.
09:57I want to invite you to join us for the next parts on this series and step into purity with all of us.
10:02In the next video on this series, we will be covering what the Bible says about sexual purity,
10:06the health benefits of staying pure, and a survival guide to purity.
10:10And if you made it this far, you might as well subscribe.
10:12God bless you and see you for the next one. See you guys.
