41 | Is sex marriage? Premarital Sex: Sin? | Numbers | journey_me | 146659 | ||
I have to re-post this question because it was not answered, I thank you for the scriptures you provided, however, you provided scripture that sparked my question in the first place. Sexual Immorality is a braod term. Where in the bible does it make reference to premarital sex as immoral or loss of virginity as immoral? Is sexual immorality something we define according to social ethics or is the bible clear on premarital sex. Please no quick fix answer, I'm looking for more than just the surface. I am trying to pinpoint where the idea of no sex before marriage came from. I also think the answer may be that sex is marriage, and multiple partners is adulterous. I need some scriptires and some biblical philosophy on this point. If you do not feel like going into detail on your stance, please leave question posted for someone else to answer:) Thanks Here is the original question: I have always been told that premarital sex is a sin. I have also been taught that fornication is a sin as well. I know the bible speaks of sexual imorality and list the various ones, but I never got a sense that they were talking about premarital sex, it seems to me that they were talking about lasciviousness, or multiple sex partners. I know Paul calls for us to abstain from sex and if we choose to engage in sex, that we should marry, but where does it say that premarital sex is wrong (Corinthians 7)? I also know that the bible speaks highly of virginity, is the opposite of virginity whoredom? Is there not an in between. Is sex before marriage something that derived from social ethics, or am I just not looking in the right place for my answer. |

43 | Do you have to know Christ? | Eph 2:8 | journey_me | 146650 | ||
God created two ways to enter the kingdomof heaven. The first was through the law, and the second was through Christ Jesus, Jesus died so that we would be free from the law, and have a chance to enter the kingdom of heaven. Those that do not know Jesus and those that do not believe in God cannot enter heaven. They are not condemned to hell, but they will not know eternal life. How can someome go somewhere that they don't believe exists or that they don't have faith in? I think what the Pastor was saying, is that there is another way to know God other than through Christ, and that is by following the law. The law is the covenant that God made with the Jews in the Old Testament. However, in Ephesians in clearly states that the law (works) along will not allow you to enter the Kingdom, you must have faith. So people who just do good things, need to also believe in God and practice the old covenant, or believe in grace by Christ. |

46 | Did Jesus punish anyone, that is, an ind | Matt 18:6 | journey_me | 146634 | ||
I am interested in the answer to your question. I noticed that all of the post due not answer the question or provide evidence, they come close, but they still fall short. Jesus said it would better for him to drown, but he doesn't say what the alternative is. We can, of course infer several option, but this quote doesn't quite answer the question. | ||||||
47 | Are our values cultural or biblical? | Not Specified | journey_me | 141834 | ||
If people look for evil they can find evil. Why are there people attacking Harry Potter and reading evil into its words? Isn't the fantastical and fiction simply that? I know I am sparking a debate, but I need intellectual and biblical analysis of reading fiction that contains elements of idolatry, witchcraft, murder, theft, and any other sin. Why is it okay for us to teach children to believe in Santa Claus? Or better yet why do we consider Hansel and Gretel, Snow White, Cinderella, and The Wizard of Oz, acceptable for Christian children? Are values based on what is culturally acceptable.? | ||||||

55 | Women Preachers? Yes or No? | Not Specified | journey_me | 93504 | ||
The other day a lady wrote a question regarding the role of women in church. On tv the news compared the election of an openly-gay bishop to a similar scandal involving the appointment of the first female bishop. I was wondering why would a woamn bishop bring about a threat of separation between the episcopalan and anglican church. Then I cam accross 1 Cor 14:34-35 [34]Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience as also saith the law [35] And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church. Saith what law? Is this strictly for those who are under the law? Are women under Grace permitted to speak in church? Can somone explain this to me? Are women allowed to be leaders in church or not? The scriptures clearly say no. Why are women required to be silent and seek knowledge from their husbands? I am not trying to be sexist, I am trying to understand how we can justify having women preachers, bishops, and etc if it is against the scriptures. |
