Point 1. Jesus didn't ever say unmarried people should not have sex.

Point 2. Are u trying to say the power of Jesus has wiped the old testament or replaced it?

Matthew 5:27-28

"Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart."


Adultery, not fornication. Jesus meant a married man should not lust after another married man's wife.

Or are u trying to claim that fornication is same as adultery

As I disvirgined, I was a true child of God.

Are u a virgin? (Very important).

for the sake of your christainity, I give you this, http://www.religioustolerance.org/sex_jesu.htm please do browse this sight and read from it. that text you quoted speaks about lust, that's its theme, lust, and he never called the category of person. Here he states when a person lust after another who is not his, that person as also committed a sin like that of adultery. For how prone humans are to this, justifies Paul's deduction that "all has sin". You are looking for a leverage to place the righteousness of fornication, but there exist non in the bible, from lust comes fornication, and if you're not allowed to lust, then how can you fornicate?

My sex status contrary to your deduction is of no importance as the truth is. And this is the truth

Lmfao.

My heart is clean as ever since I left Christianity n became Agnostic.

As for bible arguments about sex, it's very clear as explained in d bible.

Adultery is sin.

Lustful looking at the opposite sex is sin(Jesus specified it as adultery)

The whole fornication thing started n ended with Paul thousands of years after God gave the 10 commandments.

It's very simple, only a deluded person can try to go against it.

if you know all this things and yet you're Agnostic, then you're really worse than who does not know and is a sinner. Sorry, if I'm sounding annoyed, I'm not. Jesus said you can't serve two masters at once, you can either chose one. Now let me ask you assuming while you remain agnostic and the trumpet sounds, do you think you would enter heaven as you are neither serving God or the devil. Remember also the story of the man who a demon was casted out, yet he had not God in his heart and neither the devil, what happened? The demon went ahead and brought a couple more demons to add up. In this world one can not truly stand alone in the battle between heaven and earth. Directly or indirectly a stand alone is serving the devil. Jesus wants total serging him and won't take in a I'm not sure because his ticket to heaven is not a favor you're offering him by taking it, but is a favor he is offering you from escaping the damnation of this world and the after life.

May the lord Jesus find you, and show you the truth of heaven and hell in Jesus name. Amen!

Jesus was a mere man who walked among us, he is no God. The story of Jesus being a God was created by the Romans. Ask urself, Isreal till today are not Christians n do not believe in Jesus Christ. U non Israeli keep running around shouting Jesus is God, lol I pity u all.

What do you mean by "6. Practice sexual intimacy. Do you remember falling in
love and the feeling that nobody in the world existed
except the person you loved? The reason for that is the...". Are you referring to the married? However, let me add that in case you fell into immorality and you're still guilty and wobbling, you need not just to repent and confess to God, you must expose your infidelity to your spouse, if you're married, but also to your pastor, in any case. Unconfessed sins of fornication, pornography, and masturbation can never be overcome. Tell your pastor of your shady deeds, and don't just accept a pat on the back. Demand for a good deal of time to seek God and be restored under discipline. Tell your spouse and have a conscience void of offence toward man lest you be rejected on the last day.

and where is your proof that he is not God. All i see is a confused man grasping for straws to authenticate his ideas and beliefs. But mind you i never called Jesus God, although it wouldn't be wrong i called him so, and neither did he call himself that. He said, the son of man. And in john he was made known as the word of God, this means Jesus is the spoken word that give man breath, for his sake you live. And in the prophecy of th Messiah it is clear that Jesus is the son of God. You could allow the vanity of thus world and the devil beguile you (deceive you) or you could wisen up and remember nothing last for ever. And in matters about his country, even Jesus spoke about it, in a parable of the banquet where the children who were chosen for the banquet were egocentric, and blinded by the things of the world to come therefore he extended his grace toward the world wide and accepted as many as were willing. The Kingdom of God is not in favor race, but of Those who believe in the Son of God, Jesus Christ. And by whom only, you might be saved. Accept Jesus in you heart today brother, and may you find the true purpose of living.

And if he is just a man as you said. Then by what powers or authority did he cast out demons? If you say by the devil, then you agree that the devil exist? And demons do exist? And by the way, can the devil live more than twenty years without once commiting sin, the nemesis of humanity? The plague he uses to play with humans who dance to the flesh. Jesus is the son of God, and is not just a man. You know this, perhaps you're too ashamed to acknowledge it. But wipe your shame today and accept him, he is ready to start anew with you.

Mind you in Israel their are christains. Have a nice night

I'm happy to see someone who has this kind of precepts in his heart. If you practice this also then surely you're in the right track. Add to it meditation in the bible as every christain is expected by God to do this and listen to your conscience. The holy spirit uses that also as a medium to direct us. Have a nice night! Brother

i just cant understand why you choose to be blinded to the truth. So then youre an animal? Who gave you that breath you breath? Why hasn't science been able to proof there is no God and absolutely proof that Humans are animals and not gods. Remember all things were created by God, no matter which theory you chose as your way of human origin God still created them all.

Youre the one in need of an awakening. This dialogue is over. I pray God shows you the light, for I fear the outcome of the path you thread. In Jesus name, Amen

The best way to resist sexual temptation is to give in to it. After all the bybull tells us that Christ died for our sins. So if we don't sin then he died for nothing.


You are wrong on This, He Died to save you from your sins.
