The former Chelsea man, who
regularly talks about his Christian faith, was recently baptised - and
says he will remain a virgin until he has married girlfriend Sara
Madeira.
Luiz, who attends the
Pentecostal Hillsong Church, was baptised in the swimming pool of PSG
team-mate Maxwell (shown below), and took to Instagram to make his views
clear.
"I have chosen to wait," the 28-year-old said in a post on the social media platform.
Luiz went on to quote the
following Bible verse: "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new
creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. (2
Corinthians 5:17 KJV).”
"How wonderful to live with you Lord, thank You for loving me so much and taking care of me!” he added.
Fellow Brazilian Kaka also
abstained from sex until he married Caroline Celico in 2005 at the age
of 23, explaining his views in an interview three years later.
"I am a great example,” Kaka
said. "The majority of people say that after marriage, they don’t like
jumping into bed with their partner because there is no desire.
“However, this is not true, my wife is the person I love and it was worth waiting.
"A lot of people were surprised
and shocked with me but I think it’s the best decision. I am an
evangelist and I believe in those values.
“I think people need to prevent themselves from making love before marriage,” he added.
"Of course, everyone has their own opinions but I think it was worth the wait."
