I still uphold the findings here, which were brought up by friends and my previous pastor, who is a bible scholar. In the older translations like KJV, in deuteronomy, the verse with "take hold and force and lie" says the rapist is put to death but the woman shall not be touched, for she is...

I see... sorry I lashed out a bit

Erm... inner healing...? I already stated what I found when it comes to God and how he views virgins after sexual assault... unless you have something that counters this...

So... as some of you know, I was sexually abused before. Years ago I was groped/raped on one occasion, and in another, groomed into sharing explicit photos of me doing things to myself, which could also be considered rape.. Years later, I still get extremely depressed and suicidal from it...

These are very helpful. Thank you guys. One other thing too... I got no idea how to talk to others. I try joining in conversations but I usually get talked over because of how quiet I can be... I'm basically shy and scared of rejection when trying to make new friends.

Hi there. So uh... as the title says, I'm struggling with making friends in person. I live somewhere near post falls, ID, and I guess im looking for a club with like minded people. I'm a bit socially awkward and I haven't had any irl friends in a while so... sorry in advance. But outside from...

The bible says virginity is one of the most important things. I didnt want it, and I want the one who sinned, so why am I being punished for it? Am I a virgin after sexual abuse or am I nothing but trash...?

...I dont know.... since the thing happened, I havent made any friends, and I doubt I'd find a girlfriend... The bible has a huge emphasis on virginity, and if sexual abuse takes away virginity I lost all value I have... unwanted and unloved... because I was hurt against my will...

...I'm sorry, the wording here is confusing...

....it seems like the bible says otherwise.... I'm starting to feel its better to die than stay alive after being sexually assaulted.... where in the bible does it say I would still be a virgin....

I... I need help... I want to save myself until marriage, but since I was sexually abused before, and everyone saying I lost my innocence... it's been hard... Is there ANYTHING in the bible that says a rape/sexual abuse survivor is still a virgin, still sexually pure? Or am I damned for...

Noah knew about Yahweh.

Faith in Jesus is one of those necessary things, right?

Well... are there verses that say that? About those who dont even know God or Jesus, and have no way to in life? Are there verses that say he might save them?

Well that begs the question. Would Gof condemn the natives, who never heard about Jesus before Europe started to colonize? How would he judge those who never heard of the Gospel, and those who might not even know who God (Yahweh) is? That is where I'm getting a little sad...

I was wondering something. I thought there was a verse that says that Jesus would give everyone a chance of repentance and coming to him (I cant find the exact verse...) and that lead me to think about America before Columbus. Did Jesus go to the Americas and told the gospel? Did he not visit...

The best bet is to find a smaller beach

And... no reply. I just need help trying to find evidence that virgins who were raped would still be considered virgin...

Okay so, I did some digging and asked some pastors and therapists. And I dont believe we should count rape as something that takes away virginity. Which does go to the spiritual body. When we commit adultery it is against our own spiritual body. Rape and molestation wouldnt hurt the spiritual...

...but theres still many laws regarding to keep virginity... and many parables are of virgins... and virginity is one of the most important things in the bible...
