1 | Is it breaking God's covenant? | NT general Archive 1 | thebigschott | 3616 | ||
I would definitely agree that in the circumstance given, it would be breaking the law of God. We know from scripture that when two people are married, there flesh becomes one, and what God joins, man cannot separate. So by having an affair with someone else we are thus separating the bond that God has created with us. | ||||||

I believe that under ANY circumstances, having sexual (or even non-sexual) relations with anyone outside of marriage can be considered adulterous and in direct defiance of the laws of God concerning marriage. Jesus said (quoting Genesis) in Matt 19:4-6, "...Have you not read that He who created them from the beginning made them male and female, and said, 'For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh'? So they are no longer two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate." No matter what the situation, whether both parties consent or not, bringing a third (or fourth, or fifth, or sixth...) party into the marriage bed DEFILES it (Heb 11:4). This is still adultery and God will judge it. |
