GOD SAID OBEY THE TEN COMMANDMENT AND HEAVEN SHALL BE YOUR REWARD,since fornication is not in the ten commandment then i don't see anything wrong with fornicating

Nobody goes to heaven only because they are virgins, believing in Jesus Christ, doing the will of God is the only way to heaven. If you don't fornicate, but you commit other sins, would you still go to heaven? Sin is sin, whether murder or lie if you don't repent the same consequences await you.

I was having this very conversation with someone just yesterday..

It's very disturbing when I hear Christians justify this behaviour. I mean, it would have been a different matter if it was a mistake and it's something they're sorry about and are trying to stop. But mba o! For most, it is a very deliberate act and then some people will even say that God's Grace is sufficient... conveniently choosing to ignore the part where we are not supposed to take His Grace for granted...

It's really very puzzling.

Is it only christians ? What about muslims or fornication is not a serious sin for muslims

Yes is a Major sin and some Muslims do funicate but is it not as rampant as it is in Christianity as they turn that as a nomal life.. You can never find a Muslim staying together with a woman for days, weeks, years in his place unmarried. Beside if Muslims are doing it does that make it right? Is that a justification for to do it? And the the Subject is WHY DO CHRISTAINS STILL FORNICATE

Remember, sexual immorality is not limited to sexual act alone, staring lustfully at someone amounts to sexual immorality.

However, it's time we stopped blaming pastors for not preaching this or that. The Bible is there and it's written in English. We can always refer to the Bible because in the end, it's not between you and your pastor, it's between you and God.

You cannot stop someone from looking at another with feelings of lust.

This is one of the many examples that prove how retarded the Bible truly is.

So much of what is written in that book runs counter to common sense and basic human nature.

Cos some of them are hypocrites.

Go to the thread about the actress that talked about saying 'no to sex till marriage', and was being bashed by almost everyone. I can bet it most of the people doing the bashing call themselves Christians and go to Church on Sunday at least.

Muslims don't 'fornicate' as frequently because they purchase children to violate and call it 'marriage'.

Which is worse, a man who meets a grown woman with whom he has sex. This grown woman has been taught about sexual reproduction and contraceptives and as such is in a position to protect herself from disease and unwanted pregnancy.

As opposed to the (northern) Muslim man who buys a child from a poor family, violates her repeatedly; impregnates the poor child; and then abandons her on the street, probably to a life plagued by fistula?

Is the latter better than the former?

It is because in recent times christendom has abandoned what they ought to do about perpetual unrepentant fornicators....excommunicate them like the first century Christians did...

Today church is all about prosperity,politics and choir...All cap. ..no pastor is particularly concerned about the moral life of members....shey na oyedepo go come worry about one boy wey dey sleep with church member...him get time...

Who even gives a damn these days about the morality of others..its all about tithe and offerings. ..who wan loose customers via excommunication...

Becaus christains choose what to follow.. That's why majority only get marry when the woman is pregnant. Then they start rushing to get marry thinking that the child will not be a bastard or is shameful or what ... I don't understand . And the bible is not even fair to the bastard child when it says in Deuteronomy 23:2
A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of the LORD.... There are so any verses that doesn't make sense at all in the bible.

Op
Blame the pastors.
They no longer preach against premarital sex.
They talk of money, tithe, offering and prosperity.

They don't expelled unrepentant sinners cos they want to retain their members.

Church leaders dey lash, and on Sunday will come to church acting like they are in spirit.

blame yourself dear not pastors....

I know many will castigate me or hate me for this. But then it is what is happening around in so many churches. Almost all religions in the world promotes moral chastity. Even the traditional religion does.

Christianity isn't left out. For over 10-15 years many us have been going to church, reading in the Bible that fornication and sexual immorality is a serious SIN against God. And those practicing it will not inherit His kingdom. 1 Corinthians 6: 9. Yet after reading this, Many wont stop to fornicate.

To this extent, many Christian brothers and sisters, have form their own moral standard. They claim it wrong to sleep with one you are not dating, but as along you both are dating, there is nothing wrong if you both have sex.

It wonders one to think if the Bible says fornication is only for those dating.
I Corinthians 7:1-5 makes it clear sex was for only married people.
1 Thessalonian 4:3-8 urges all Christians to flee from fornication.

From what is happening in today churches, people no longer has issues engaging in premarital sex. They believe as long they obey other laws it more than enough. No matter how many times they read it in their Bible, it wont stop them. Their conscience doesn't trouble them.

The hypocritical part is, they are quick to condemn prostitutes. You defile your body for free, prostitutes does it for money, who is now cheap? They condemn homosexuals and say it a serious SIN and yet they glorify fornication to an extent that people are virgins are regarded as fools. Ask yourself who really is God proud of?

The truth is no true christian or a God-fearing person will indulge in fornication. Even if he does, he repents and never return back to it.

There are no ways about it. You cant slave for two masters. It either you are a slave to sex or to God. And as the Bible tells us, the sins of sexual immorality leads to eternal destruction. Who fornication epp?

Why don't we live by what we read in our Bible? It definitely mean 95% of Christians wont not inherit the Kingdom of God. God has no double standard.

Yes, you can. When you are spirit filled. Even when the flesh sets in, you'd be able to quickly realize your mistake and make amendment

I believe that part of the Bible is there for our own good.
From lustful staring to wanting, should she reject such advances, it could lead to rape.

Our problem is we always want to rely on common sense and human nature. The Bible clearly told us not to rely on our own understanding

He says be perfect just as your heavenly father is perfect. However, in our quest to attain perfection some things try to pull us back. The most important thing is when we acknowledge that we have fallen short of grace we beg for pardon and try not to go back to those things.

Sex is sweet, it was created by God... However, it is to be enjoyed in its right context, .
God doesn't permit singles *whether in a relationship or not* to have sex.. Sex is only for married people, sex is a covenant between two people.. Also there is an exchange of personalities between the two individuals, if you have another person's spirit in you, the Holy spirit will not bad able to move freely in you.
