gohf:And all I did was to point out what God called "clean" and the standard He Himself Set. And a vessel that is not clean on the inside also God als clearly Said that it is not clean. |

How do you define marriage? Is it the ceremony from the church? Traditional rites? If two people have decided to be together isn't that marriage? Because if we go by today's Christian or Muslim look on it then our ancestors fornicate pieces. The argument about marriage and sex is BS to me sha cos of how we define it. And religious people need to stop their obsession with sex cos y'all do the most |

Dtruthspeaker: jesusjnr2020:Totally agree with u on this but can't help but wonder David and Solomon has several wives and even concubines(unmarried mistresses) These were God's men. J would judge them as sinners but God looked beyond certain things at certain times tho he judged them in some ways. David even killed someone and took his wife. God is definitely mysterious and wonderful in his ways. |
| Re: Sex Outside Marriage Isn't Called Dating by Dtruthspeaker: 1:13pm On Oct 19, 2025 |
jaxxy:Go read closely you would see that God punished David extremely severely and that God declared those later parts of his life very unacceptable to Him. While for Solomon, you can see that following God's casting him away, God does not count him rather God refers to the "first ways of David". So, the Judgement is there. |
| Re: Sex Outside Marriage Isn't Called Dating by jaxxy(m): 1:25pm On Oct 19, 2025 |
Dtruthspeaker:Yes I also mentioned God did judge them to some extent. However David was judged not for his wives and concubines but killing uriah one of his most trusted soldiers and taking his wife. |

ReacherSaidNoth:Christianity didn't promise sex after death but some others did just that with plenty virgins. Maybe you are mocking some other religion in disguise. |

jaxxy:Jesus Christ explained it better in these verses. This is the Christian doctrine on marriage. Matthew 19:8 KJV He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so. Matthew 19:5-7,9 KJV And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? [6] Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. [7] They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away? [8]He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so. [9] And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery. |

MadamExcellency:I know the Christian doctrine but I was referring to the pre-Christian doctrines hence my quoting David and Solomon in context of God's will, laws and truth. |
| Re: Sex Outside Marriage Isn't Called Dating by Dtruthspeaker: 2:05pm On Oct 19, 2025 |
jaxxy:He was punished for all of his offences. David almost did not make if not that truly he was the wisest man and that wisdom got him the mercy of resitting the exams he always failed in And this time he now passed it before he died. That is why God reckoned him. Go and read carefully with the mind that God does not change, then you would see that I say is True. Look at how God punished Canaan did you not see that so did He punish Isreal when they did the same? Their own was even hotter |

Dtruthspeaker:I didn't say God changes but he change deal with people and situations differently depending on what ge wants to achieve. No God didn't judge others how he judge his own people. it varies. |

dollypi:What you call God is the universe which you're also part of. The critoris was made so that women will enjoy sex and the only purpose of that sex was to reproduce not for fun. No one has to teach you the universal law,it's embedded in our soul. Even animals have specific time or season they copulate |
| Re: Sex Outside Marriage Isn't Called Dating by MERCHANDISER: 5:33pm On Oct 19, 2025 |
SpencerForbes:Bro you don't understand how things work😀,I was once thinking like you. Sex is a sacred gift designed by the Creator and the universe for the purpose of life — to bring forth new generations, not merely for pleasure. When we misuse what was meant to create life, we upset the natural and spiritual balance. Every action has its consequence; going against divine purpose invites karma or judgment, reminding us that sacred things must be honored. |

MERCHANDISER:So we can’t enjoy what God gave us😂😂 But we can eat what makes us happy and not just what gives us energy😂😂😂 Maybe we should stop eating things we love but only eat things tha serves the purpose of “strength” abi🤔 🚶♂️ |
| Re: Sex Outside Marriage Isn't Called Dating by MERCHANDISER: 5:43pm On Oct 19, 2025 |
SpencerForbes:Regarding sex, you're only permitted to enjoy it with the intention of bringing another soul to this world not for fun. Ejaculation is similar to someone planting a seed. Will you plant your seed in a stony ground or soft/fertile land? When you have sex for fun or mastubate,it's akin to planting on a stony land. |
| Re: Sex Outside Marriage Isn't Called Dating by Nobody: 5:48pm On Oct 19, 2025 |
MERCHANDISER:Keep adding meaning to what isn’t there. God gave sex to us for pleasure and procreation. If the Jews didn’t know this, Judas wouldn’t have gone to visit a prostitute or wasn’t Judas a follower of God?? |
| Re: Sex Outside Marriage Isn't Called Dating by MERCHANDISER: 5:53pm On Oct 19, 2025 |
SpencerForbes:Bro you won't understand this now...but you'll understand better when you're spiritually mature to digest such knowledge... Have a nice evening bro🫠 |
| Re: Sex Outside Marriage Isn't Called Dating by Nobody: 5:56pm On Oct 19, 2025 |
MERCHANDISER:If this can’t be explained then I don’t think there’s anything to be matured about. That’s why some converts always want to go back cos we can’t dissect the gospel but just try to make everything divine. Shalom 🚶♂️ |

Dating does not mean having intimacy it simply means spending casual or free time with someone you are fond of. Simple. |

Marriage is different from wedding, sex outside marriage is still different from sex outside wedding. MARRIAGE is union between two or more people depending on your religion, while WEDDING is oath taking between two or more people depending on your religion. In some religion you need to pay bride price only while some require you do wedding. |

orikoku:Not engaging in sex doesn't even make u holy the only thing that will make u holy and acceptable before God is only to accept jesus as ur lord and personal saviour no self righteousness actually matters. God created man and ordered him to go populate and dominate the whole earth man can't achieve such assignment without engaging in sex in a properly Godly accepted union. |

ReacherSaidNoth:It's simply because it's spiritually very deadly and destructive. |
