Bible Question:
Hi, sorry I wasn't talking about Adam and Eve in Genesis. I was talking about my girlfriend and I. What if we didn't have sexual intercourse and we just did the physical intamacy between the both of us and were not married. That's what I'm trying to still figure out if it's wrong to do that even if your not having intercourse, and just the intamacy part of it, as in (touching), that's it? Thank You. |
Bible Answer: In your profile you said you like being called a child of God. This is good! As a child of God we are to reflect God's character. If you are a child of God, and you profess this to others, then you need to always remember who your Father is and not only what he expects of you, but that you are claiming to others to represent Him and His ways. With that in mind, read Ephesians 5:1-17. inmyheart made a very good point to you when he/she said "this is not just about you, it's also about her" I would go one step farther and say this. In the order of importance this is about God, your girlfriend, and you. Would you place yourself before God and your girlfriend? (Think on that! No need to answer) |
