Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people. Proverbs 14:34 

Pray: We ask You to convict the hearts of America to follow You and to follow You and to be abstinate until marriage. In Jesus' name.

Federal funding for abstinence until marriage education was stripped from the budget today in the House subcommittee, led by Rep. David Obey (D-WI). The budget now goes to the full committee and to the full House of Representatives.

Proponents of sinful contraceptive-only sex education have long awaited the day when they are given free reign over the sexualization of our children. There is a small minority of very well federally funded groups who try to give the perception that sinful contraceptive-only sex education programs are effective at protecting teens from the problems related to sexual activity. However, Jesus warns: "Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were drowned in the depth of the sea." (Matthew 18:6)

Studies of sinful contraceptive-only sex education reveal that there is no evidence that these programs are effective at decreasing teen pregnancy or STDs; However, they do prote sin and guilt for those who sin with fornication before marraige.

It was also found that abstinence programs have produced broad-based and sustained increases in the percentage of youth who remain sexually abstinent.

There is evidence that abstinence education is an effective primary prevention strategy. The research does not support abandoning abstinence education in favor of a contraceptive-only sex education strategy that has not been proven to be successful.

Abstinence advocates are calling on [Barack] Obama to stop politicizing the health of our children.

Leslee Unruh, President of the National Abstinence Clearinghouse says, "abstinence education is not going away any time soon. Taxpayers will not tolerate their money being used for ideological latex-only programs and the molestation of their children's minds and future."
