Enough to all these nonsense. People fail to understand the role of sex in marriage, that why most people go into it, get disappointed and come out.

No sex in courtship should be for virgins, people who have never tasted sex in thier lives. So when they get married, they will explore together.

In fact, let me make an extensive topic on this.

As good Christians, it is of God we avoid all forms of sexual immorality in courtship and Marriage. This is by God's grace.

Pray for God's grace in this corrupt and polluted world because the rate of sexual immorality and temptations is on the high side.

As people in courtship, pray for grace not to sleep with your Fiance, Fiancee, EX, friend, bestie e.t.c

Please avoid:
(1) Avoid sleeping with your Fiance or Fiancee.
(2) Avoid sleeping with your EX before wedding day.
(3) As married persons, avoid committing adultery with others, your EX, your colleagues, childhood friend e.t.c
(4) Avoid paternity fraud: bringing other children into the marriage or even having child outside.
(5) Avoid other forms of sexual immorality that is not of God.


May God give you grace in Jesus name. Amen.
No 2

So you can sleep with your ex after the wedding day. Why not leave it at "Don't sleep with your Ex"

Hmmmmm2024:
I see most men going outside to nack....to those of you trying to get married, copy this little trick for me


Sex can make or destroy a marriage. Please men, before you married her, you both enjoyed a good sexual relationship...it was fun, it was romantic...but after marriage, she tends to change after dropping the first child. And noticing that the sexual life has dropped, most men start chatting old girlfriends, or going after new ones all because of sex. But you forgot that STRESS is a demon on its own. Stress after birth can destroy homes...most women out of envy that oga may nack house help, may want to do all the work themselves... Men please don't ever fall for that excuse. Make sure you have a house help, if possible, have two.

Make her fresh as possible. Reduce her stress drastically. That will give her more time and energy for whatever that makes the romance burn.
Hmm, you try. Even with this, some men will still go out to nkack. It is In our gene to be promiscuous, not good enough but the bitter truth.

That's why Muslims are permitted to have like 4. cool

Y'all just setting standards that are impossible to keep. Couples should rather figure out what works for them. While it is good to keep yourselves before marriage so that you can clearly get to know the person U will be living with, sexual urges must be satisfied somehow.
Just say it is impossible for you. There are still people around who would keep it. People who would dare to be like Joseph, Daniel etc. They don't bend nor break.

Let's be realistic.
Put bible aside.

What if the man is impotent?
What if both of you are not compatible copulatively?
What if he has a small thing?


I don't know who buys a brand new car without going for a test drive first.
Your last statement doesn't make any sense. A car and a human being can't be equated. A human being has life, a car doesn't.

You guys needs to stop pushing narratives that doesn't make any logical sense. In courtship, both parties are expected to be open and sincere about anything and everything, run every medical test possible and pray for God's guidance (this should be first)

Jesus says for the reason of marriage, a man shall leave his parents likewise a girl and both shall join together to become one.
Not two, three, four, etc
And a man has no reason to divorce his wife except for fornication.
Where is it practiced?

Show us a biblical marriage as example?
Re: Dealing With Sexual Immorality In Courtship And Marriage by AntiChristian: 6:28am On Jul 28, 2025
Iweakbro:
the honest answer is that the Bible doesn’t give us a detailed wedding manual or ceremony format the way our cultures do today. What it does give us, however, are clear principles and examples that show us what makes a marriage valid in God’s eyes.


According to Jesus in Mathew 19:5 For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh

Now practically speaking, in Bible times, marriage involved a few steps: mutual agreement (consent), some form of bride price or dowry (which showed value and responsibility), a public recognition or celebration, and finally, the consummation; sexual union, which sealed the covenant. So yes, there was usually some kind of feast or wedding celebration, like the one Jesus attended in Cana (John 2), but the real marriage was about the joining of lives, not the size of the party or who officiated it.

And you're absolutely right, at the wedding in Cana, Jesus didn’t give a sermon or perform a ritual. He simply gave them wine when they ran out. His presence there shows that celebrating marriage is good and worth honoring, but He didn’t use that moment to define a formula for weddings. Why? Because the heart of marriage is not the event; it’s the lifelong covenant made between the man, the woman, and God.

Let love, truth, and clarity lead the way.
Jesus wasn't asked about marriage in that Matthew verse but about divorce.

Thank you for the honest answer though!

Deuteronomy 22:23-26

23 If a man happens to meet in a town a virgin pledged to be married and he sleeps with her,

24 you shall take both of them to the gate of that town and stone them to death—the young woman because she was in a town and did not scream for help, and the man because he violated another man’s wife. You must purge the evil from among you.

25 But if out in the country a man happens to meet a young woman pledged to be married and rapes her, only the man who has done this shall die.

26 Do nothing to the woman; she has committed no sin deserving death. This case is like that of someone who attacks and murders a neighbor

Wedding feast: Wedding Feasts involved family, community, and sometimes extended periods of festivity (e.g., Samson’s seven-day feast).
Music, dancing, and joy were implied, though not detailed (e.g., Psalm 45, a wedding song, celebrates the bride and groom with poetic imagery).

Tradition Connection: Jewish weddings include a festive meal (seudat mitzvah) after the ceremony, with dancing, singing, and blessings, echoing biblical feasts. The seven blessings (Sheva Brachot) recited at the wedding and during the week-long celebrations in some communities may draw from the extended festivities in biblical accounts like Samson’s.
Elders roles; Elders or witnesses often played a role in validating the marriage (Ruth 4:11–12, where the people bless the union).
[b] Bride's preparation:
Brides were adorned with jewelry, fine clothing, or veils (e.g., Genesis 24:65, where Rebekah veils herself upon meeting Isaac).
Groom's preparation: The groom also prepared, sometimes with festive attire (Isaiah 61:10).


Lots more.

I don't know why you're still mentioning Jewish items. Was Jesus Jewish? Did Jesus practice Judaism? Jesus attended a wedding in Cana and the only thing he gave them was booze! Quality wine! Nothing else was mentioned relating to a Christian wedding!

So you had to embrace Jewish wedding!

Will you embrace Jewish salvation method too?

Stop behaving like the mvd prophet of Islam. Jesus was a Jew who practiced JUDAISM, he was christened like a real Jew, grew up and prayed like Jew. He followed Jewish traditions and never started any religion. We do wedding feast according to our traditions. JESUS didn't come to the world to show us new ways to have wedding feast. HIS PURPOSE ON EARTH WAS ABOUT SALVATION AND NOT EVEN RELIGION.

If Jesus practised Judaism then Christianity is false!
Religion is the way of life. I think most Christians are confused when they say "Jesus didn't bring religion"! Jesus lived in a way! He had a way of life! A set of beliefs and ideals! And you should stop behaving like the Biblical Jesus who said the following....

"You snakes! You brood of vipers! How will you escape being condemned to hell? Matthew 23:33

You foolish people! Did not the one who made the outside make the inside also?Luke 11:40

[b]Jesus turned and said to Peter, "Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me; you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men."[/b]Matthew 16:23

What type of perfect role model is this to follow? He went around insulting people while he preached, while at the same time he told his followers to show love to their enemies? He even went so far as calling one of his disciples "Satan"!! Why couldn't Jesus be more patient and hold his tongue?

Jesus even got a bit physical at times...

When it was almost time for the Jewish Passover, Jesus went up to Jerusalem. In the temple courts he found men selling cattle, sheep and doves, and others sitting at tables exchanging money. So he made a whip out of cords, and drove all from the temple area, both sheep and cattle; he scattered the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables. 16To those who sold doves he said, "Get these out of here! How dare you turn my Father's house into a market!" John 2:14-16
