Romans 10:2-3 explains it all:
"For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not according to accurate knowledge. 3 ForFor because of not knowing the righteousness of God but seeking to establish their own, they did not subject themselves to the righteousness of God".
Ur girl proclaims that she is an active Christian but does not accept God's moral standards of right and wrong. What she is doing is her own sel-induced sense of righteousness. That is the order of today's new generation "Christians" who tell u "how dare u question my actions. U don't know my relationship with God or my level of grace".

So in essence she shouldn't have prayed. She would have waited till she's done with all the sinning in the world before she kneels to pray.plz I wanna be guided thank K u

alBHAGDADI:
What does she pray about after the sex?

Ishilove:
Forgiveness, most likely

alBHAGDADI:
Then what she's doing is willful sin, which is wrong. She's not sorry for every time she fornicates. She thinks God will forgive her when she opens her mouth to ask for forgiveness without it coming from her heart.
alBHAGDADI please reply to these:
1/ Do you lie like a cheap throw or Persia rug?
2/ Do you tell lies?
3/ Have you ever lied?
4/ When was the last time you lied?.
5/ How much time more do you think will last before you tell the next lie?
6/ Do you know aside forgiveness, what else her prayer is about?

You just desecrated God's temple which is your body by fornicating, fornicators have no place in God's Kingdom except you genuinely repent from it and consecrate your life to God.
And liars, thieves and blasphemers do right?

OP's issue is not that she prayed at all. Wat his issue is, is that she repeated the same action of sex after the prayer before dawn. Wat exactly does the bible say about such attitude? Repeatedly doing the wrong, shows our unreadiness and dishonesty towards that sin we pray about. James 4:4 says: "Adulteresses, do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever, therefore, wants to be a friend of the world is making himself an enemy of God".
Let's assume the prayer of the lady, after the act is one of repentance. Then we can conclude that she is approaching God with faith, that through Jesus Christ's ransome sacrifice, she would be forgiven. Take note of "faith" in my sentence. How does faith operate? James 2:17-20 tells us how faith operates: "So, too, faith by itself, without works, is dead. 18 Nevertheless, someone will say: “You have faith, and I have works. Show me your faith without the works, and I will show you my faith by my works.” 19 You believe that there is one God, do you? You are doing quite well. And yet the demons believe and shudder. 20 But do you care to know, O empty man, that faith without works is useless"?
So u see? That lady is undecided or hypocritical. Do u disagree with these scriptures?

I do not in anyway disagree with the scriptures quoted, my question n confusion at the same time is
1. She knew that she was gonna still have sex, just like I know I might fall into a sin that might not b fornication knowingly or unknowingly. Does that stop us from praying
2. Do I stop praying bcoz I know I might commit an avoidable sin in the next few seconds?

Forgive me for trolling this once MuttleyLaff , but I couldn't help myself.

I really like your version of Christianity ; just keep praying, repenting and NEVER STOP praying, in the end it will be all good. Enjoy your fun, Jesus is Love and he will always forgive so don't lose heart. I think I may rejoin briefly.

Christianity is so funny - grin

He was right with the scriptures but used them at the wrong time and for the wrong explanation...So would advice don't join for the wrong reason

Does one commit sin, especially fornication unknowingly? Do we anticipate ourselves to sin? Are we not expected to put some serious efforts to avoid sin? Is our conscience not supposed to be bible-trained? "She knew she was still gonna have sex". Was she gonna have it unknowingly?

Do you remember what the three questions were?
Well the scriptures I gave that you deemed were right, were given in line with the parameters of those three questions asked, and also you dont know what her prayer is about or what she was praying about, so using those scriptures is still germane

The issue and questions raised by the original poster and his questions didnt have anything to with your line of enquiries, but if this is the game you want to play, then two can play this game. So Gracespecial101 please reply to these:
1/ Do you lie like a cheap throw or Persia rug?
2/ Do you tell lies?
3/ Have you ever lied?
4/ When was the last time you lied?.
5/ How much time more do you think will last before you tell the next lie?

Paying "without ceasing" is commanded and a good thing - "Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” - Matthew 26:41

The fornication (and sins like it), is clearly wrong and typically comes with consequences later (physical and spiritual consequences). It is easier said than done, but we should (the unmarried), avoid it and other sins at all cost.

"Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body." - 1 Corinthians 6:18

"But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints;" - Ephesians 5:3

"Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God." - 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 (also Galatians 5:21, and Revelation 21:8 ).

Like I said Based on the sixth question again.. I don't know what she is praying or asking For.... but Could she be praying for forgiveness while getting ready for another sin?? is it Normal or right? just asking

The bible states man ought to pray without ceasing. Well, have you considered that maybe in addition to the prayer for forgiveness, she prayed for strength to not give in next time round and maybe prayed that her sexual partner properly legitimise their relationship, hmmm? Now, as you are playing "hollier than thou" with her, please reply to the remaning five questions left or just let this matter rest
Re: Is It Right To Pray After Fornication? by erickjany: 9:12pm On Jan 20, 2019
Hey it's a certified sin. Sex is only programmed for married couple. The scripture says in Romans 6:23 the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Bros please u have all the opportunity on earth to give ur life to Jesus. The word of God in Isaiah 55:6 seek ye now while he maybe found call upon him while he is near.
Bros their are a time u may try to seek him but it's too late. The bible say after death, judgement. Word of God say in Romans 6:14 Let not sin take dominion over u for u are not under the law but under Grace. Pls repent and give u life to Christ. Heaven is real and also Hell

Bleep God. If blasphemy hurts HIM, he's free to slay me. as is usual.


Hmm, I don't know. Maybe 'sorry, I hurt your feelings, God. I was only human.'?


What's vile about saying the Holy Spirit slept with a virgin? Isn't that what you believe? Am I wrong?



Bleep Jesus. I didn't ask him to make any deals on my behalf. I want to see this useless God that does not like me.


LoL. that idiot died for his sins. The cross was his own, and will remain His. I had nothing to do with the unfortunate incident of his hanging.



Because it is a scam. Wetin concern me with Joseph baby mama pikin? Am I cursed to carry a cross made in Israel? I forbid.



Hate is a strong word. One doesn't need to hate God to see through the scam that is Christianity.

Please please do me a favour. Really spend time to think about what i told you earlier,your eternity and what beliefs you are staking on.

Gods offer still stands . Now is the time to tell him you are sorry cause after death is judgement. It should concern you that Jesus who came from heaven and lived on earth a sinless MAN (with the same fleshly sinful nature like all men)bore the punishment for your sin. But you are too proud.

7 Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice,

8 Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness:
