Avoid closeness
The Bible warns against inappropriate touching and closeness which can lead to fornication.

This article will discuss some of the ways you can avoid closeness to resist fornication. But what exactly should you do? It may surprise you. Continue reading to discover some of the most effective ways to resist fornication.
First, we should keep our self-esteem high. Our Creator created us in His image and for his glory. Self-esteem is crucial because people who lack self-esteem are highly vulnerable to temptation. Low self-esteem is closely connected to fornication. When we are healthy, we can restrain our passions, and we are more able to resist the urge to engage in erotic behavior. Instead of chasing after fornication, we should pursue relationships with people who are patient and discriminatory.
Avoid sex-charged music
To resist fornication, you need to be as harmless as a dove. The Bible warns against fornication, both inside and outside the body. It teaches you to be harmless, as a dove, because fornication begins in the mind with erotic desires. Listening to sex-charged music, even if it is only for yourself, will only increase your chances of being sexually attracted to your partner.
Avoid inappropriate hugging
To resist fornication, avoid hugging your partner. According to 1Thessalonians 4:4, closeness and playfulness increase the risk of sexual feeling. Moreover, it weakens the defense. So, avoid hugging your partner and avoid playing with them. It is better to avoid fornication than to lose the relationship. Despite the fact that we want to be close, we need to protect our bodies and minds from fornication.
Avoid sex-charged movie
While the art of sex-charged movies is an excuse to show violence, pornography, and sexuality scenes, this logic allows for a lot of evil to flourish. While 80% of society can’t handle such scenes, it’s not because they aren’t smart enough to think about what they’re taking in or how to process what they see. Most people simply don’t think about what they’re consuming or how they’re consuming it. In addition, the vast majority of people do not know what they believe or can handle explicit scenes. Therefore, it is simply irresponsible to say that every single person can approach such scenes in an innocent way.
