Yes Animals have sex..the have sex with their Mothers, sisters, fathers, brothers.......and that's why they are call animals.. And in an open places...you are human and sex is not forbidden but you have to get marry first. That's what make you different from animals.. Except if want to tell us that you are having sex with your Father/Mother/sister or brother... And also u are having sex in an open places and move around nake...Think and act like human being not like animals pls


It is not every body that marriage's meant for. So if I decide i'm not going to marry for life, that's to say I can't fornicate right? In your warped and insolent thinking, how does choosing as an unmarried to have sex equivalent to not thinking and acting like a human being?? How do you reason

Christianity is not the life of individual righteousness but the righteousness of God made available to us through christ! its the life of sufficient grace and mercy. though we should nt live in sin that grace may abound...know what the word of God instructs and abide by it!

I am a Christian and what affects my religion is what I talk about. Every religion fornicate but not everyone. Many of you say dont judge but you judge prostitutes, homosexuals, arm robbers etc.

Many believe that God is gracious, yet they forgot how he used flood to cleanse the earth of badness during Noah's time. Sodom and Gomorrah was destroyed, Moses didnt entered the promise land, David suffered for the consequences of sleeping with someone's wives..so many numerous examples..Then who are you for God to overlook your serious wrongs when you have no intention to quit?

Everyone sin but some derive pleasure from it..No remorse and no intention to change.

No one dies instantly from fornicating, it because God want us to repent. But many repentance no dey their dictionary. They ready to fornicate till death or HIV do them apart.

It is clearly written on cigarette packs that smokers are liable to die young but people still smoke it. It takes the grave of God to flee sin.

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

What is 'spirit filled'?

How does one become spirit filled?

Name me some well known 'spirit filled' people.

Thanks.

The bible says otherwise. Anyway, do you. When your stay on earth is up, you face your creator at the judgement throne.

The Bible says a lot of nonsense. I'm not surprised at it.

Dude please spare us this Cain, Adam and Eve rubbish. Not ONE of you here calling these names has ever spent a single minute researching their authenticity, or if they ever existed. You just accept they are real because that was what was drilled into your head as a child (child abuse). You are an adult now. Google is free. Go and research your beliefs before propounding them like a brainwashed fool.

so your problem is you are still trying to figure out if they existed or not, Happy trying, but desist from calling people fools cos they believe, it's ur choice to believe or not

Stupid write up. Because God forgives doesn't mean there is no punishment attached. Cain was punished even after God forgave him. Same thing applies to Adam and Eve. So lose this continuous bashing of the almighty God...that's what he is... Almighty.

I wonder when you guys will break free from this mind bondage!!
Re: Why Do Christians Still Fornicate After Knowing It's A Serious Sin? by Nobody: 2:51pm On Jun 12, 2016
It becomes a sin when both did not agree, but as long as they agree enjoy themselves no problem.

Note; Fornication is the act both of you engaged for fun.

Prostitution is the act basically for money.

Adultery is the violation of the rule of sexual love as an adult, that is what God frowned at even the married couples also engage in adultery, it is not limited to unmarried alone as the case may be.

I can go on and on but time will not permit me.

@ op I have pondered these questions u ask a while ago and I have come to certain conclusions.
it isn't only Christianity that has its adherents struggling to keep up with the moral standards of the religion,but it is a problem that plagues all other religions.
To be a TRUE devotee regardless of your religious compartment is truly difficult...

Sex is humans nature which can be controlled but it is not a crime to engage in it. Nothing is a sin against a god,but the creation of god is a sin against humans.

U should have asked "why do Christians eat when they get hungry?

All things being equal, a young man and woman of marriageable age should get married and enjoy the energy of their youth. But sometimes, all things r not equal. And this can happen as a resylt of the economic burden placed on the marriage institution by the tradition which is made worse by Nigeria's economic woes.

And what happens when a young woman is full of sexual energy and no man around is thinking of marrying her? She should be condemned to a life of non sexual expression till her old age.

The church has absolutely no structure to meet the pressing needs of the youth. They are looking up to the Federal government to do that and fg has failed the youth over the years. Yet we continue to act as if nothing is wrong

This is why I keep asking people that if God is to judge us according to his standards for real, will anyone make heaven?

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.
the reason why pastors are not to be exonorated is that they too know what's in the Bible regarding formication , but they refuse to preach it for fear of loosing members. Its like leaving substance and pursuing shadow. They chose to tell people what they want to hear. Remember God said in the scriptures they in d last days false prophets will arise . if we ignore their mistakes then ,we shall be punished with them.

Holydude:
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.

Because their pastors only emphasize on money and prosperity and deliberately skip such topics as fornication and other sins. Only miracles are talked about cos the gullible followers only want quick money even without hard work. This therefore allows the pastor to be super rich at such instance. In the pastors voice " why scare them away with such topics when I can make more money through tithe" I have always said xtianity is big joke.

This is a very crucial topic ever and is still the trend of disobedient and hardship among us, especially we the Christians. Sometimes, is annoying when the totally of salvation had been completely written off from the Bible by Bible Preachers. The idea of wealth creation and competition among 'Servant of God' (Decalled and Uncalled) baffle me in person. Pay Tithe, I love my Pastor, Offering, Covenant Offering, Plalete, gift, 1st, 2nd, 3rd and even 4th offering has also lead us to change 100 naira note into 10, 10 naira note to enable us participate in all around activity. The question is who is fooling who? Unemployment had increase fake preachers and everybody want to impress the other by their luxuries, which had lead to the removal of the salvation message totally from the church because everybody want to make numbers instead of members. This idea of the Satan, Dedevil is to pack many with him to hellfire. That is why he (the Devil) unleash the "hardest slave drive" (sex drive) unto us the, the creation of God to enable him succeed in his mission. Sexual urge is one of the shortest way to destruction be it in church or the society, even in public and private offices. The only way to overcome this slavery, is to understand that we are enemies to an enemy, be conscious of heaven, remove your naked eyes from flashy things and luxury especially the Ladies who are the carrier of this entanglement and above all read your Bible. All these will follow if only we repent and confess that Jesus Christ is our Lord and Personal Saviour. Also, be born again inwardly and know we are fighting with an unseen agent of Darkness which is the father of sex and immorality. Remain bless in Jesus name.

Vickyydera:
Cos the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak.
It only takes the grace of God to overcome temptations.

Romans 8:13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.


Galatians 5:16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.


My dear, it doesn't take the grace to overcome temptation. The Bible contains ample teachings on overcoming temptation. Walk in the Spirit. Don't let your feelings control you. Its not grace. It is you.
