Your thoughts are natural, God gave them to you, but they are not yours until you act on them. If you don't want them, then think of something else. This does take practice, but can be done. It is not difficult. The important thing to remember is that only you can judge you. That is why they say you are your own worst enemy, there is nobody else! You are like Neo standing in the room with all the video screens of himself. (if you haven't seen the Matrix, you are missing out) Love yourself and the world will Love you TOO!

This isn't really a God related issue. It's perfectly natural to have "impure" thoughts whether you're 16 or 36, there's nothing wrong with that. The problem people run into is when they let those thoughts/desire run their lives. A lot of good marriages and relationships fall apart not because of what people think, but because of what they do (usually with other people).

Thoughts like that are normal at your age. It is called human curiosity. If you truly believe that God can help, then by all means Pray. Your actions also factor in here . If you know the difference between thinking something & acting it out, you are already doing the right thing. We are only human sweetie, and can not control what we think. Just pray and continue to do the right thing.

Yes. Thoughts will come. Just replace the thought by thinking a victory thought and speak the victory. We fix our thinking by saying a replaced thought. The replaced thought spoken should be in accordance with God's Truth.
What we verbally say directs our imaginations. Say a skimpy bikini of the opposite sex walks by and thoughts happen. Think, I
am going to stay pure for my future spouse that God is providing for me. Then the thoughts think about that perfect somebody.

Every human being have those thoughts once in a while, and it is OK. What you have to be sure is that you don't do anything that is not save to you and your believes. Pray to God to give you strength not to fall into temptations, even if you have those thoughts. Remember, you are too young with so many beautiful things to do in your future, don't do anything now that can harm your goals.
Getting laid is not the answer, that may be the real big problem!

Your "impure" thoughts are a natural part life especially at your age. But as you get older you'll be able to control those thoughts. Unless of course you're a perv...then there's no helping you! By the way you need to PRAY, PRAY, PRAY .....always works for me..i'm 21 and i'm a guy....trust me it always works!

Forget God, it is natural to have impure thoughts. Consider this, maybe they are not impure thoughts at all...maybe they are natural thoughts. Do you think of yourself as a bad person? Well what made you think this way? Religion? Hmmm...bizarre isn't it? Life is natural and the best way to live life is as natural as possible. You don't have to act on these impure thoughts but you most certainly don't have to be ashamed of them either. We all have them. We are all human.

the in simple terms way into heaven is by using believing in Jesus on my own for salvation. All sins, such as lustful concepts, are forgiven in case you've faith in Jesus to get into heaven. No works are mandatory. shall we see Ephesians 5:5. Ephesians 5:5 "For this ye recognize, that no whoremonger, nor unclean man or woman, nor covetous guy, who's an idolater, hath any inheritance in the dominion of Christ and of God." shall we glance on the be conscious inheritance. that doesn't advise entering into. that's speaking about rewards. entering into is by using believing in Jesus on my own for salvation. taking away sin is mind-blowing for eternal rewards so that you do not finally end up with not something. that's why you ought to call on Jesus that could help you out with sin once you're kept. =) John 6:40 seven "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath eternal existence." =D

Yes he can, but sometimes it takes prayer and fasting. In one scripture the Lord says this kind goes out not but by prayer and FASTING. It can be difficult to fast but it is well worth it, prayers that don't get answered any other way can be answered through fasting, because when the flesh is weak the spirit is strong. I have personaly seen the Lord break the spirit of rebellion, and homosexuality and many others through prayer and FASTING!!!

Yes he can, impure thoughts can lead to impure actions. Whether you are a Christian or not allowing yourself to be led into temptation can effect the rest of your life. If you would like God's help ask him. Regardless though, you should be safe and don't put yourself into any situation that you might regret.
