Abstinence is a discipline/virtue. If you abstain because it is thought immoral, you do so out of fear, not for the love of God nor the love of virtue. As such the attainment is false.

Status: offline 		What is interesting about God is when you do Him a favor, He is generous. He does not bother with you unless you call upon Him and calling upon Him is often not enough. You must please Him and to do this you must value what He values. He can respond to future events as well as those that occur in the present or past. If you should meet Him, it may not necessarily for anything you have done in the present or past, but for what is in your future or all of the above. Apparently, God does not see time as we do. I did God a favor. He is currently indicating to me as I write this how I have managed to please Him.

Status: offline 		In Post 23 http://www.collarchat.com/fb.asp?m=4029837 concede I may have sinned though my intention was not to do so. Though it really does make an important point, don't follow my example. All I know is that I'm not supposed to trouble myself too greatly. I suspect I succeeded in confusing the angels, however. That was immediately apparent to me.
