I do agree. We are full of contradictions if they are contradictions. I love people, the poor, I am a justice fighter, or activist, somehow. I willingly use part of my money for those who have not, and I am moved by Zjesus love and God's love. I am always moved by mercy.
I am hyper sensual and have seen how I can liberate happiness and pleasure through sex in ways that would be wild outside sex and sensual communion. But this is his we were created and through this breakthroughs flows a lot of life. Steven

No you don't need it for two people to live together or to love one another, that piece of paper is only as worth as the paper it's written on. It's about the ceremony itself and the vows shared between them. Those vows are to God, not to each other persay. When you take the wedding vows, you're vowing to them of course, but also to God. Vowing to God you'll love this person forever and always, ect. That's what joins the two together, God of course but it's from those vows made between the two. Not some piece of paper, not the government saying you're married or not, it's again the vows you make to the spouse and to God to love them and to remain with them forever.


Very much agreeing with this :banana:

Also ... if you're actually not married... it just can also make it easier to just up and leave. Because there's no real commitment there. Married people think twice at least, and try to work things out, because there commitment and ties.

AMEN, CowboyGH.

Amazing how people who actually fear & believe God & his stance on unmarried sex call those with said fear "fanatics," "holy rollers," etc.

Just proves how petty -- and clearly convicted -- such small-minded people can be.

God bless you, CowboyGH.

Im new here and I liked the topic... You know, sex before marriage is a sin, indeed. But we are weak. We can't win our body's wants. We all commit sins, daily. But it is said that such sins harm our soul very much... You know, I strongly believe that our souls are eternal and I always think that we take care of our body and we forget about the soul.
There are so few people who made it and stayed virgins till marriage. And I think its beautiful how two partners decided to love God more that each other... But, most of us just can't do it... It's in our nature to give in to our wants and not to His, I guess

1 Corinthians 6:9-11

9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

Adulterer - Voluntary sexual intercourse between a married person and a partner other than the lawful spouse

Fornication - Sexual intercourse between partners who are not married to each other


Seems to me with there being two different mentions of sexual relation outside of marriage potentially keeping one out of Heaven I would suggest keeping it zipped up till there's a ring on that finger.

Sex before marriage is like most sin, it feel good.
but it does not feel right!

my favorite scripture is Romans 8!
Why?
Because it come after Romans 7!
where Paul says things like.
For the good that I will to do, I do not do; but the evil I will not to do, that I practice. Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. O wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death? I thank God--through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, with the mind I myself serve the law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin.

The question is, doesn't Sex consummate marriage?
For God said they shall become one flesh?
So we are commuting adultery?

:smile: You are to be commended for your stance. Those aren't your words; they're the Word of GOD. If others have a problem they should take it up with Him.

I recently just went through a barrage of judgment from a person I thought understood my beliefs. It was out of no-where that this person told me that I was a Luke-warm Christian due to me being okay with sex before marriage.

It hurt not only being called a person that God wants to spit out of his mouth, but more so because I cared for this girl. We had come to an agreement before hand, and I thought we we're on the same page. But then out of no-where, she one eighties on me, but I don't blame her at all for feeling this way.

As someone who believes/knows Jesus died for my sins, I know just how BIG God really is, but I also have a lot of confidence in Him knowing me inside and out as well. I am a sinner, and will sin for the rest of my life, but I am just tired of so many people who go through condemnation and persecution on a daily basis that end up doing this to each other!

It's all about God, Jesus, and the Holy spirit in the end, but at the same time, apart of me really does just want that intimacy in a sexual relationship with another human being.

What do you think? No judgement here at all, I'm just wondering what others believe on this topic.

I think the most 'lukewarm' christens are the ones that judge the Christianity of others,, for that judgment or 'righteousness' is Gods

it would be one thing for her to disagree or explain what she believes, but to belittle your 'christianity' is beyond the pale as she cannot know you as fully and completely as God to know your heart or your love for him

this same woman would probably protest if you married her and made her have sex when you wanted, because the bible says her body is no longer hers but yours,,,,

people love to judge on the most trivial of things a persons overall value or character,, and it is a shame when Christians do it,,,

imho

I disagree. the only difference really is in how 'leaving' manifests,,, one has to have a paper to LEGALLY recognize they left, but that doesn't stop them from physically leaving the relationship just as often,,,

that is the question. The bible SEEMS clear about sex outside of marriage, but not nearly as clear as what makes the relationship a marriage,,,

We should try and abstain from sex before marriage, however we are of the flesh and all sinners and fall short of the glory of God. Now a sin is a sin, no such thing as little or big sin..

The problem is when we get weak, and one starts pointing the finger or playing the righteous card... this is when they start to feel condemned instead of convicted.. As we know there is no condemnation in Christ.

Hence, if kissing leads to something else, then don't kiss... and if you are kissing and it getting a bit heated, and she pulls back, deal with it.. Know your limitations... however, the hot and cold thing can be hard to deal with. Just know your boundaries and keep in the word to strengthen you as we can not do it on our own.

The bible does make it clear about marriage... that you are to follow the laws of the land.

So when the bible says, man is to leave his mother and father and hold fast to his wife Genesis 2:24 this doesn't mean his is to catch up with a woman and this is ok!
