1 | Sex before marriage and lesbian passages | 1 Cor 6:16 | benrapley | 157939 | ||
Hello My name is Ben and i am 17 and i go to school in manchester, England. recently my friends have been asking me questions about why i do not have sex before marriage, and appart from the fact that i dissagree with it i think it is imortant to leave it untill marriage i cannot find any actual quotes in the bible refering to sex before marriage, i have found plenty refering to adultery, but i have looked that up and that means sex with someones wife or someones fiance. i would be very grateful if someone could tell me if there are any verses that specifically refer to sex before marriage so i can tell my friends. also in many places there are quotes about gay relationsships, but when i talk about it with my friends they always go 'oh what about lesbians, everyone loves lesbians', which is a stupid school boy quote but i cannot find anything in the bible which says anything about lesbian relationships. forever grateful Ben Rapley P.s. im terribly sorry for any bad grammar or spelling, I have dyslexia and i find it really hard. |

Hi Ben! Good question about the Adultery. There is adultery and there is fornication. Fornicate in the Webster's 1828 Dictionary means; [L.fornicor,from fornix,a brothel] To commit lewdness,as an unmarried man or woman,or as a married man with an unmarried woman. A fornicator is an unmarried person,male or female,who has criminal conversation with the other sex;also a married man who has sexual commerce with an unmarried woman. Adultery is rel;ated but relate to a married man or woman that is unfaithfull with the marriage and has intercourse with another other than the marriage partner. So the word you will want to look up is fornicate for your situation.Namely Sex outside of Marriage of any sort. We are told not to company with fornicators in 1 Corinthians 5:9-11Serious stuff. We are told that fornicators do not inherit the kingdom of God in 1 Corinthians 6:9,10.Serious stuff. We can't be selling our birthright for the sake of fornication.Hebrews 12:16,17Serious stuff. By the standards of the Holy Bible,you are making a VERY wise decision.May God bless you and keep you and make you a blessing. PeterAV |
