The Role of Chastity in the Christian Life

Chastity is not simply sort of, as we had said, like the suppression of sex. It's again living our human sexuality properly and accord with our proper state. The third word that's often associated here is celibacy or the celibate life. So you have chastity which kind of governs our human sexuality. You have continents which refers to the refraining of the sexual act,. And then you have the celibated state which means not getting married.
