Are you joking a what??

You shall not covet your neighbor's house. You shall not covet your neighbor's wife, or his male or female servant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.
—  Exodus 20:17

You have heard that it was said to the people long ago, "Do not murder," and "anyone who murders will be subject to judgment." But I tell you that anyone who is angry with his brother will be subject to judgment … You have heard that it was said, "Do not commit adultery." But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
— Matthew 5:21-22, 27-28
(NIV)

Those verses up there speaks about covetousness. note "look" in the second verse also mean covet and not literally looking per se.

covetous , greedy, acquisitive, grasping, avaricious mean
having or showing a strong desire for especially material
possessions. covetous implies inordinate desire often
for another's possessions -.merriam-webster

so if you desire to have sex with a man's wife or daughter and have started taken your secret(inordinate) steps then it is called sin even before sex already especially when the steps taken are with ulterior motives. If you have a strong desire for a man's daughter then ask her hand in marriage and do the right thing but the moment you decide to follow another part of sleeping with her then you have sinned even before the actual sex.

For your neighbor's wife and property and servants, keep off away from them, do not plan to or desire to possess them, his property you can seek to buy from him but his wife is his wife and you cannot desire to own another mans wife.

Remember Joseph was not caught when Potiphar's Wife secretly asked for sex, if Joseph had agree then he would have sinned even if not caught.

David was legally married Bathsheba because her husband was dead already but God saw it as sin before then(marriage) because David desired her while her husband was alive and also the actions David took were as a result of his covetousness which made him kill her husband.
After David punishment by God for his covetousness in which he lost four children and his reputation , David was not told to keep away Bathsheba because God forgave him and blessed the marriage. Solomon was a legitimate and Blessed child of their marriage.

Stop preaching HERESIS.
YOU CAN SAY WHATEVER, BUT DO YOU KNOW THERE ARE THINGS THAT ARE BETTER KEPT SECRET LIKE SEX ITSELF. IF U UNERSTAND THAT SEX IS A BASIC NECESIITY, FOR MARRIAGE ESPECIALLY, YOU WILL START SEEING THINGS IN ANOTHER PERSPECTIVE. THANKS BLESS YOU

I need bible reference as a proof of your statement.
The #wisest man ever given birth to, #King #Solomon by the best King in the Bible, #David was through what? ____________
#Sex is a major problem in many #homes & #relationships today. #Couple not being #sexually #compatible, One wanting it more than the other, and bla bla bla. Yet, they'll tell you never to #experience it before #marriage.
How do you know ur #abilities, where to #improve & otherwise if you've never #experience it.
It like Nigeria labour #market where graduates are expected to have 5years experience before taking an entry level job.

A crime isn't a crime till you're caught openly by more than 4 people, I think according to the Quran. So, tell me the real definition of #FORNICATION & #Adultery

lexy2014:
Since u say "Sex is consentual pleasure between two partners", is fornication/adultery not consensual? Pls activity is performed during fornication/adultery? If u commit fornication/adultery& u don't get caught, what will u call it?
Sex is sex. It is only fornication or adultery when u get caught. So, don't deny yourself of the gift freely given to you by God

the way the world is going it will soon be added as a sport in the Olympic games
Haha, its end time where people are becoming shameless of sinful things. They do things that should be done secretly in the open without shame.

Sex is a basic necessity of life just like food. It's a gift of pleasure given by God. However, it should be done with morals. I.e without corrupting others.

So, have sex secretly without letting people.

I LOBE SEX. I WANNA GET BETTER ON BED

It is no longer new and surprising when we hear about the exposed sexcapade of a pastor and a member of his church, or about the choirmaster who impregnated the sister who is a member of the choir. It's now a 'common thing' when young church-goers engage in casual sex in their rooms and come to church in shining clothes on Sundays, flaunting their energetic dancing steps, and even speaking/blasting in tongues. And this is not even all about the young ones alone. Even some elders and older deaconess and leaders knows what they do in secret when no one is watching.

You know, few days ago after praying to God for messages, one of the things I was shown was about immorality in the church. Do you know it's now so bad that some folks are indulging in these sinful acts right inside the church building itself?

This article is meant to serve various purposes. We will see some reasons for this menace, as well as some solutions. If you are an unbeliever who is being discouraged to go to church because of the disgusting acts of some Christian folks, you will see reasons why these things are so, and why you shouldn't allow the waywardness of some brethren to hinder you from meeting the Lord Jesus. If you are already part of a local church, and you are one of the chaste Christians around, I trust the Holy Spirit to open your eyes to see how you can play a role in eradicating immorality from the church. Let's get down to business.

The Criteria For Being A Member Of The Church Has Changed (The Ancient Church Vs The Modern Church)

Why was there not a high-rate of immortality in the ancient church? In the churches that were pastored by the Apostles of the Lord Jesus Christ, why weren't there numerous cases of raunchy and disgusting sexual relations between members of the church? The answer is simple: Majority of the ancient Church-goers first became genuine Christians before joining the church. So, the ancient church wasn't infested with an intriguing rate of immortality because it was filled with Christians who were genuinely born-again.

However, things are different today. I tell youths every now and then that many of them are in the church today simply because they were born into Christian homes, or they don't want to be the only ones at home on Sundays. In clearer sentences, many so-called Christians today are yet to be born-again. They are yet to genuinely give their lives to Jesus Christ, and are yet to make the choice to forsake the lifestyle of the sinful flesh. Since they haven't passed through the spiritual process that will help kill the sinful desires of their flesh, they can't but act as unbelievers, right in the church. When they are made youth leaders or choirmasters or whatever, they can't but go on exhibiting the works of the flesh in their departments, staining the reputation of the church in the process.

Being genuinely born-again is a necessity to align with God and His will. It entails giving one's life to Jesus Christ and making Him Lord and Savior of one's life. When you make Jesus Christ your Lord and Savior, it means you have embraced His finished works on the Cross that cleansed your sins away, and you have agreed to make Him your Master. That is, anything He asked you to do, you do them. Anything He asked you not to do, you don't do them. And since He has asked us to flee sexual immoralities and other forms of sinful activities, you are to run away from them (He will give you the Holy Spirit to help do His will - if you are determined in the first place)

So, if you are in the preaching arm of the church (either a pastor, or the Bible Study Cord, or a Sunday School teacher, etc) always retain it at heart that there are a lot of unbelievers in your congregation, and so you shouldn't hesitate to preach messages of Salvation every now and then. Although the normal thing is to preach Salvation messages in the streets while evangelising, and to preach 'matured messages' in the church, we can't but deal with the basics to these unbelievers parading themselves as Christians in our churches.

The Church Keeps Derailing From Holiness-rich Messages That Makes People Heaven-conscious

I have no problem with 'niche ministries' (as I also have mine). When I say 'niche ministries', I mean a ministry that focuses on maybe prosperity messages, or healing, or marriage, etc. The problem is that we are not making these messages holiness-based (yes, there are ways you will preach prosperity messages, and people will be encouraged to live holier lifestyles in their quest for wealth)

Today, many of our churches pay too much attention to messages of "walking in the supernatural", "speaking in tongues", etc, and many of their members no longer retain the required consciousness of holiness in their day-to-day activities. Seriously, humans forget things easily, as our flesh is weak and fragile. And so, we need to be constantly reminded about the need to live holy lifestyles and to be heaven-conscious.

We Are In The End Time

Let's be realistic. The only things some churches focus on is holiness and righteous living. Still, we still see folks that are corrupted with sexual immoralities. Why is this so? Simply because, we are in the end time...

"....that in the last days perilous times will come: for men will be lovers of themselves....unholy...lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God" (2 Timothy 3:1-5)

So, don't be surprised seeing a lot of sexual immoral persons today. It's already prophesied and it can't but come too pass. It only means the coming of Jesus Christ is very near, and you should make yourself ready to be rapturable. If you are yet to give your life to Jesus Christ, please do so now, and you will become fulfilled in God.

There is nothing bad in having sex as long as it is done secretly without knowledge of third party.

There are difference s between sex and firnication / adultery. Sex is consentual pleasure between two partners while the later is when you are caught doing it by third party or more.

So, have sex secretly but dont get caught.

dats only when you are employed in good companies.. And since its so hard to come by good jobs here.. Its difficult for families to afford hospital bills..


Most times I tell myself I won't even want to marry a Nigerian.. I just picture myself relocating to a more civilised country where the government has regard for her citizens
It depends, if u work in govt agency / ministry with job security. You're save

But if u work in private firm, esp startups. don't try marriage yet oo. u can fucking lose DT job any fucking time. & u don't wanna spend d rest of ur life frustrated.

As 4me, I pray 2 Jah, please don't make me a husband if I can't take good care of her, nor a worthless father. Make me excellent in both.
