The Bible does not specifically address teenagers as a distinct group, as the concept of adolescence as a distinct life stage is a relatively modern idea. However, there are several verses that provide guidance and wisdom for young people:
1. 1 Timothy 4:12 - "Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity."
2. Proverbs 22:6 - "Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it."
3. Ecclesiastes 11:9 - "You who are young, be happy while you are young, and let your heart give you joy in the days of your youth. Follow the ways of your heart and whatever your eyes see, but know that for all these things God will bring you into judgment."
These verses encourage teenagers to live a life of faith, integrity, and joy, and to set a positive example for others. They also emphasize the importance of seeking God's guidance and following His ways.
