So, this whole sister / brother in Christ thing makes a lot of sense when you think about waiting for sex until marriage. It happens like this: until you are made one in God's eyes (i.e. married), you are still sister and brother. Therefore, you wouldn't do anything relating to physical intimacy. However, when you are made one, the aim of your relationship changes completely, the way that God views it is different, and in this type of relationship, sex is a part of it. I think this is a really cool way of looking at it because it seems to answer a lot of the questions that I had, such as how far does a couple go before marriage, and stuff like that. I've always been afraid that if I start thinking that sex is bad, that it just won't seem right once I'm married. However, if I view it as it isn't right among brothers and sisters in Christ, but it is right when you are made one in God's eyes, it works perfectly.
