Bible Question: Could someone explain all forms of adulty and scriptures |
Bible Answer: Sexual relationships outside of marriage You asked if someone could explain all forms of adultery. God's Law (sin is the transgression of the Law) is very specific about which acts constitute sexual sin (sexual immorality). You will find a list of sexual sins in Leviticus chapter 18. Fornication defined. FORNICATION -- 'sexual relationships outside the bonds of marriage. The technical distinction between fornication and adultery is that adultery involves married persons while fornication involves at least one person who is unmarried. But the New Testament often uses the term in a general sense for any unchastity. Of the seven lists of sins found in the writings of Paul, the word "fornication" is found in five of them (Rom. 13:13; 1 Cor. 5:11; Gal. 5:19; Eph. 5:3; Col. 3:5). In the Book of Revelation, fornication is symbolic of how idolatry and pagan religion defiles true worship of God (Rev. 14:8; 17:4)' (Nelson's New Illustrated Bible Dictionary, Thomas Nelson Publishers, 1995). |
