Is sex before marriage a sin? Because Adam and Eve didnt marry and they had sexual intercourse with each other. And God didnt forsake them because of that. So what is really the superstitic idealogy of sex before marriage as a sin? Do you think it is actually a sin? Marriage experts and geniuses |

immortalcrown: Yes! They were not married. They were still at the dating stage when satan got them to fall. Yes! They were not married. They were still at the dating stage when satan got them to fall. And as you see, you do not see any place where God declared them husband and wife nor do you see any marriage ceremony and celebration take place. Which is why even male Adam said "it is the woman you gave me" and not it is the wife you gave me or it is my wife whom you gave me. Parental consent is a very important ingredient of having a valid marriage and a public show by the parents is also integral to it. That is why all over the world traditional amd customary marriages are valid. |

immortalcrown: I have given them to you already. I told you even male Adam said "it is the woman you gave me" and not it is the wife you gave me or it is my wife whom you gave me. And no where did you not see where God declared them husband and wife a nor did a marriage ceremony and celebration take place as we have seen parents do before and during their children's marriage |

World over, Is dating not when a boy and giirl are dedicated anf committed to each other with an aim of being seen and taken as husband and wife? All over the world, are the parents not already aware that their children have connected to each other and are in that period of time which comes before marriage which we now call "dating"? You have seen all of these things and no where do you see in the bible where you see God had a party or something celebrating their union declaring them husband and wife. And even male Adam shows that fact which is why he said "it is the woman you gave me" and not it is the wife you gave me or it is my wife whom you gave me as duly and validly married people will say. |

Testiebobo: Your Answer: Genesis 2: 22-24. And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. 23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. 24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his Wife: and they shall be one flesh. I am sure sir. That this answered your question. Adam and Even became married from the moment God brought the woman to meet the man. Thank you. 3 Likes |

Testiebobo: Genesis 4:1; and Adam knew his WIFE eve.....your error is in thinking that its the ceremony that validates a marriage...those are just the extras that society added to celebrate the union. |

Fornication is not a sin of course but breaking a vow 'see adultery' is sin.. God is not interested in your sins anyway not like it will stop him from being God, no! But he listens to the cry of the downtrodden and visits parents sin even unto the 10th generation. Summary is to not break any vow to him or to any human. That is the only sin. Sin include: *Not acknowledge God *Idolatry *Disobedience to God's command or parent's wise counsel *Adultery *Lieing/false witness *Stealing *Murder *Pride *Greediness/covetousness *Glutton *Drunkenness/abuse of everything *Not keeping to convenant/cheating *Dehumanizing your fellow man; because that man will cry unto God and his wrath will fall upon you Not a sin but erroneously perceived: *Fornication *Gambling/lot *Masturbation *Laziness *False pretence for a good course 'see story of Abraham and king Abimelech over Sarah Abraham's wife' *Drinking alcohol *Eating all types of animals/food The sins I mentioned will make you a direct enemy of God. While the other, though not much offence to God but might be an offence onto YOURSELF so you better be careful and understand that moderation is key in life. I rise! 1 Like |

MythAngel:correct me if I am wrong,when the offsprings of Adam and eve we know as Cain and Abel,Cain went off to another land and took a wife,who created those people?who are Cain's inlaws? Can they be black men created by a black God? |

MythAngel: You must first meet your partner to be husband and wife and that is the period we call boyfriend/girlfriend aka dating stage. And when the couple are dating, they do not have the right to.have sex or to partake in their partner's family functions etc. It is after their Union is celebrated by their parents that they then have that right to have sex including all the other rights they previously did not have. So, technically, marriage starts from "brought" together, but sex and other rights of marriage are only activated after the families have celebrated the couples joining and brought.togetherness. Which is why another element of a valid marriage in Law is "[b]lex celebrationis" And no lex celebrationis occurred between male and female Adam. |

Goodlyhrt: Rubbish! Deuteronomy 22:28-29 shows that it is a sin for when a couple fornicated they must marry themselves else they be killed or turn vagabonds/fugitives by running away.;history of eloping and prostitution and new towns and communities And this is the beginning and history of bad marriage for God punishes them by making their marrage very painfull and bitter as we all see people have today since most like you fornicated even thouaands of times before they married. |

Lol. These ones are lost. Fornication is not a sin? Bible said a man will leave his parents and be joined to his wife. And they twain shall become one flesh. What other joining is more obvious when something came out of you was used to create your partner, whom God himself approved of and brought to you? That's the highest form of commitment and it's a covenant (as all marriages are covenants) that God himself put his stamp on. This man is saying they were "dating". People just choose to quote the Bible out of context. So because Adam said "woman", it means she was not his wife? So as a married man, if you go out and someone asks you, "where's your woman?" that would be politically wrong, or would you assume he was referring to your girlfriend and not your wife? Omo. People are completely lost. 1 Like |

helinues: You can justify having an unnecessarily large sexual appetite all you want. Lol. But what goes around comes around. And stays around. As you're "test driving" other people's daughters, it's the same way your daughters, nieces, and grand kids would be test driven by other randy men too. And let me also inform you, 90% of them would end up not buying the damned car. Just like you didn't "buy" or marry all the girls you test-drove. As a man, if someone keeps sleeping with your daughter without marrying her, would you like it? It's like having a car dealership. And this young man picks out one of your most expensive rides and starts driving it, says he wants to test it. Does this for three hours, comes and parks it and says he's not buying yet. And he comes in every week, putting milage on the thing, yet not buying. Won't you get out a shotgun and blast his head off for driving down the value of your car, next time you see him in your shop? Have a conscience, young man. 1 Like |

I won't lie, it seems to me like this is a strawman argument. As in, you're grasping at straws. They were still at the dating stage? So did they do white wedding at any point in their lives before death? God himself had recognized their union, giving Eve to Adam as a companion. So they were still dating? You said they were in the dating stage when Satan got them to fall. But in Genesis 3:6 it says "And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat" Adam is referred to as her husband in this verse by most versions of the Bible. So what exactly are you talking about? Oga, if you want to sleep around before marriage, do so. It's your body after all. But don't use the Bible as justification. StillDtruth: |

StillDtruth:What actually marries a man to a woman is their vows, not just parental consent. The moment a man asks a woman to marry him in good faith and she agrees in good faith, they are as good as married, but I think that is beyond the scope of your question. Since you talked about consent, let me ask you: which consent is better than God's consent? Adam and Eve didn't have parents. God saw what Adam needed and gave him one, so what else do you want? A wedding with God as the officiating priest and animals as guests? Also, things change. There was just one law in the garden and there is no sin without law. You do know that marrying one's sibling was okay and legal until the law against it came much later? Adam's children married each other, etc. |

StillDtruth:Then you have confirmed it that not being a sin till when they don't marry. Or caught. Not a sin against God but to humans, to be punished by selfsame humans not God. Was fornication expressly written in the tablets as a sin? |

Tallesty1: Wrong! What marries man to a woman is Authourity and Law. If God, our Authority had prohibited marriages, then marriages would be a sin. But because God permitted it, He also set down the steps which.a couple must comply with to have a valid marriage as shown by Nature. Which we know starts with Young adult male and female meet, and court each other privately, then publicly, then they report themselves and their relationship.to their respective families (consent of their Authorities) who after due and proper scrutiny, give their consent to the couple and then thereafter publiclly show to the whole world that they approve the Union (marriage) of their children formerly under their care by publicly celebrating the marriage. Hence the history of traditional and customary marriages. And all over the workd, its the same procedure. As you see in the new world to come, marriages are prohibited/deactivated by The Authority, God! |
| Re: Why Is Sex Before Marriage A Sin? by StillDtruth: 1:00am On May 25 |
lululovesblue: You are the one committing the fallacy of reversing the burden of proof. The bible shows they were put together like boyfriend/gitlfriend are first put together. But every boyfriend and girlfriend still need to go through the process of marriage, which nature has shown us that the coming together.of the boyfriend and girlfriend must be publicly celebrated by the families of the couple for it to be valid (lex celebrationis) just like Wofai fadas's marriage issue https://www.nairaland.com/8082484/wofai-fadas-in-laws-reject-marriage#129791915 And we can all see the bible shows that Adam's union was not celebrated, which you see male Adam said "it is the woman you gave me" and not it is the wife you gave me or it is my wife whom you gave me. So you people already fornicate before marriage, so just know that you are guilty of it already like Adam. |
