MORALITY, VIRGINITY, MARRIAGE
The morality status in this world has run a muck. To some, sex is just a sport, it's just a past time.
In the Muslim culture being a virgin was important for a woman to maintain because it would cause her, her life if found out on her wedding night she wasn't. The husband may forgive her but her family wouldn't and they had the right to kill her for their honor.
Speaking of virginity, back in Jesus' day when Joseph found out that Mary was with child he had the right not to marry her because in the Jewish law Joseph would have received public disgrace for staying with Mary but thank God he was obedient and obeyed finding out that Mary conceived by the Holy Spirit, she still was a virgin for no man had touched her.
It is better to obey than sacrifice and Joseph sacrificing being disgrace wasn't first on his mind. He loved God and he obeyed the voice of the angel. If Joseph didn't obey the angel Jesus' mission on earth never would have taken place and we would not have a chance to have a relationship with God. Only Jesus blood would have save us.
What is your intake on Joseph not obeying the angel of the Lord and not marrying Mary. Would we have a Savior today?
