Is sex before marriage a sin? Reading different thoughts on it all that state they are coming from a Christian perspective.
James 4:17 "Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin." Constitutes sin for a Christian believer. A covenant protects those participating in sex with a commitment since sex leads to reproduction. I would say yes. But I will add your basis of authority shapes your belief. You will argue all day about these topics if you want to accept something else as your standard. I haven't had sex before marriage because it honor God and the Word of God is my standard for living.

What is your favorite city & why?
New York City. Maybe because I grew up there and my destiny is tied to that region even though I go to other places I love I always end up back there.

Do you believe God can trust you with celeb status? This usually means a wider audience, influence and more responsibilities. Part 2. Do you believe you have something unique to offer the lost world?
I believe if that's the desire god put in my heart that he's prepared for that. Influence is a good thing. it only becomes bad when the influencer is leading the people astray. I believe so more now than a few years ago because it wouldn't validate what I'm doing in my mind it would just be an opportunity to reach more than I ever have. Part 2 I believe I have what I need from God to reach those He sent me to. If I didn't believe there wasn't anything to offer I probably wouldn't do it.

How important do you think it is for youth to be involved in community activities as well as church functions?
I'm not an "activity person. i rather they be involved with community period. What I mean if you are involved with community being involved with activities is a byproduct. Being involved with people as Jesus was is the most important thing. If you have relationship with people you can minister to their needs because you have invested in their life. We are the church that assemble in a church building. We are the hands and feet of Jesus to reach out to our community and ultimately the world. When people know you care you can create unity and accomplish whatever that community needs to do.

what is you favorite food? xD
Chicken. Then Mac and Cheese.
Ask me some questions about anything. I'm bored out of my mind!!!
why do you believe in Jesus?
Because when I put my faith in him many years ago He's proven himself real and faithful in my life over and over again. I believe in HIM and not necessarily the religious establishment claiming to be Christianity. I believe, study, pray and obey the Bible.

You decide.
Tell me are there some things that you are easily offended by , and don't say "When people ask me what are some things you are easily offended by". ha
It's not that easy to offend me. It's usually connected with something deep or ongoing. I would say on that note inconsistency between word commitment and action.
Ask me some questions about anything. I'm bored out of my mind!!!

What would be the most exciting thing for you to do right now. Anywhere with anyone in this world.
I would love to get all the people who mean the world to me together and just have fun. The company will make whatever the activity enjoyable. You really don't always realize when you have somebody special in your life.

To Obey Is Better Than Sacrifice
Pretty much this sums up a hard life lesson for me. Our good intentions are just that in the face of what God tells us to do and nothing more. What he wants from us is obedience. Growing up having to find my own way in many things I sort of fell in love with "control". I really defended myself and resisted being "controlled" by anyone. It seems everybody wants you to react or do something in a situation they would do. This habit was reinforced but disobeying and deceiving my parent. Then it was justified by the childish "Nobody's going to tell me what to do." Behold the rebellion. When people were trying to help I was too "rock headed" to listen. Unfortunately that hardness makes it's way to your heart. We deceive ourselves like King Saul due to this hardness believing we obeyed and believing we are justified. This took me through a season of learning to obey the voice of God. Yes I admit on in many pivotal moments of my life I let emotion, hurt and rejection rule my decisions. But there comes a time in everybody's life where you will either drop the ball or embrace what you need to do to pursue your destiny. Obedience is something society teaches us to resist. It glorifies the rebel and make them a hero. It sensationalizes criminals who break the law. We drink in the fruit of disobedience through many ways some subtle, some not so subtle.
Acts 5:29 Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.
Romans 2:7 To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:
8 But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,
9 Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;
Colossians 3:20 Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord.
Colossians 3:22 Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God:
23 And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;
24 Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.
Obedience is truly honoring God and His Word. It is putting Him first over our feeling, emotions, situations and mindsets. It doesn't really matter about the person commanding you. When I began to understand this my attitude toward obedience totally changed. My obedience shouldn't be based on reward, looking holy or advantage but to please and honor God even if people didn't see it or even understand. Obeying God as the ultimate authority. He rewards my obedience not men. Let's honor God today by Obeying Him in all things.
