@poster,
[b]The pastor in question should have waited till after the child birth to avoid this kind of
misconception or whatsoever. Why should he wait? So the two people in question can continue living in sin? What is the lady dies in childbirt of before she gives birth, what happens to her soul? |

1 John 1 1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life; 2 (For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;) 3 That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship
is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ. 4 And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full. 5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. 6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: 7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ
his Son cleanseth us from all sin. 8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us. When you confess your sin - our God, the merciful creator, understands. Definately the Lord will keep her soul. |

Should we continue to sin so that the grace of God will abide?? |

hello,i'm kind of new on nairaland, but i will say something on this,
there is nothing to justify Pre- marital sex, family culture or watever, even removing spirituality from it, in pre marital sex, you devalue yourself, and expose yourself to any and everything that can possibly happen. and besides you don't even get to have the sex with an open pride, because you are at a constant fear of being discovered. also the girl whop got pregnant, fine the mistake has happened, if truly like you said,"a christian sister" i would tell her the same thing i told someone i know in the same situation, Pick up the pieces of your life and go to the Potter to mould you back again, and the funny thing is He gets to make you better than you were initially, and for the Child, i need you to understand that it is not there because of what you did, you had to do what you did so that it can come to life. No Child is illegitimate, we only have illegitimate Parents.

Pastor Kola, all these bible wey you dey quote no dey rhyme!! There’s nothing accidental about getting pregnant. Its infact it’s premeditated!!! If people commits fornication today, there’s no guaranty they’ll repent overnight. My point is, why should they have to wait till she delivers the baby when the actual sin of fornication will most likely continue? |

My sister,Fornication is not the only sin in this world. IT is one of the sins that are available.
Don't tell me that you have not commiited any sin all your life. SIN IS SIN but what am saying is this
No one is perfect but once you realise your mistake,then you go back to God with a humble heart
He will surely forgive. Do you get my point now?

@merge
yes it is wrong, you and i both know that,i've got a question for you; what of those who do not?. what do we do, how can we help them or do we condemn them to damnation just because they are ignorant of the thruth? so we need to understand that it is more than we are seeing, we need to spread the message as far as wecan, and for those who have made the mistakes, we have to open our arms to them and give them the encouragement and strength to bear the consequences of their actions and guide them by the word of God to help them have a new life.

I dint say I never committed any sin oga!! The sin we are referring to here is sexual immorality. What is required is chastity. Okay one simple question, is it better for them to continue to live in sin, than for them to be wed as soon as possible?? Fornication might not be the only sisn in the world, but its the sin of the flesh, which is a sin of against the h/spirit. It has graver consequences than you can ever imagine. Why should you even think of allowing them to contine when something can be done about it. Am not perfect oh, am just saying christians should stop encouraging themselves into hypocrisy!!! |

Going through Christ's life, teaching and ministry has it occured to us that in the two sexual immorality cases of the Samarittan woman in John 4 who had changed husbands and the adulterous woman to be stoned to death, He found it appropriate to show them mercy. However those who were trading in the temple under God's name were flogged and chased out. What does these instances tell you about graver sin(s)  |

Well,the major thing there was the couple engaging in love making before the wedding night. however, God is always willing and ready to forgive. maybe, they have repented and their peace with God. The pastor may have conducted marriage blessing for them and people tagged it wedding.  |

Besides Jesus acted that way in the case of the two women because he wanted to discourage exactly what you guys are trying to do now, judging your fellow men!!! I'd rather leave God to decide which one offends him more, defiling his temple (your body) and defiling his house (the church). Personally, I don't know about that. |

Thanks Imhotep for the apt reminders. I never said the sin of fornication was graver than trading in God's House. I just said it had graver consequences than we can imagine!! So a sin that has graver consequences is not necessarily graver I think I will need some education about such "equal but different" phrase. Besides Jesus acted that way in the case of the two women because he wanted to discourage exactly what you guys are trying to do now, judging your fellow men!!! Did you draw that conclusion of not judging our fellow man from the Scriptures or from somewhere else? I will appreciate if you could clarify the basis of such conclusion that runs counter to the wholesome theme of the Bible with adequate examples. |

We Nairalanders have a knack for digressing from the topic. A Christian Sister Pregnant Before The Wedding: Is It Right? The answer is NO!! But the harm's been done, why delay the wedding?
