You may come to that moment of real love, of total union, only to discover to your horror that what you should have saved has been spent, and—mark my words—only God's grace can recover that piecemeal dissipation of your virtue."

According to our readings, why did Elder Anderson bring up the examples of Adam and Eve / Lehi and Sarah / Mose's parents / Joseph and Mary?

What is the role of analysis, courtship, and agency in our decision of who to marry?

"One note regarding the use of our agency to study out our decision: it is important to remember that analysis does not breed love. Instead, acting with love breeds love. It is not uncommon to hear committed couples who felt deeply in love throughout their courtship, who chose each other and eventually became engaged, who then begin to have serious doubts about their decision. They wonder why their love begins to wane, and their confidence slackens when they felt so much love and such surety before. But those feelings of love and that confidence came because they had chosen to love and they were acting in love, which creates feelings of love and confidence."

What is the relationship between the worth of souls, the role of sexuality in the plan of salvation, and the Atonement in explaining why sexual sin is so serious to our Heavenly Father?

"One of the 'plain and precious' truths restored to this dispensation is that 'the spirit and the body are the soul of man' (D&C 88:15; emphasis added) and that when the spirit and body are separated, men and women "cannot receive a fulness of joy" (D&C 93:34). Certainly that suggests something of the reason why obtaining a body is so fundamentally important to the plan of salvation in the first place, why sin of any kind is such a serious matter (namely because its automatic consequence is death, the separation of the spirit from the body and the separation of the spirit and the body from God), and why the resurrection of the body is so central to the great abiding and eternal triumph of Christ's atonement."

What is one of the great ironies of eternity related to the law of chastity?

"One of the ultimate ironies of eternity is that the adversary, who is miserable precisely because he has no physical body, entices us to share in his misery through the improper use of our bodies.

Why is it important to remember that receiving revelation is a line-upon-line process?

"Seldom will you receive a complete response [to a prayer] all at once. It will come a piece at a time, in packets, so that you will grow in capacity. As each piece is followed in faith, you will be led to other portions until you have the whole answer."

What are the strengths and weaknesses of LDS, non-LDS, and medical or clinical sources of information regarding sexual intimacy?

"Some publications written by non-LDS authors may not share the same values as members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and may advocate for principles or practices that are contrary to correct principles. Furthermore, those works written by medical professionals or clinicians could provide helpful information, but will almost certainly lack the emotional and spiritual perspectives needed to fully understand that information and place it within a healthy, loving context. In fact, some of these publications may be overly technical and lack the practical counsel that couples need. Nevertheless, if people are wise and seek for the best possible sources—LDS or not—there is good and helpful information contained in many of these resources."

How does our understanding of and approach to chastity and sexuality while we are single influence our view of and approach towards sexuality when we marry?

"Sometimes while attempting to emphasize the importance of avoiding sexual sin while single, young adults can get the mistaken notion that there is something unclean or wrong with sexuality itself. It is important that we learn to view sexuality as God sees it—a vital, beautiful part of our nature, and an essential part of the plan of salvation. This will help us approach sexual intimacy in healthy, joyous ways when married."

What is "the Lord's standard regarding sexual purity"?

"The Lord's standard regarding sexual purity is clear and unchanging. Do not have any sexual relations before marriage, and be completely faithful to your spouse after marriage."
