It's not when it doesn't include sex. Everyone has there own opinions.

[@steamfull]

What if you are living together without any sexual relations?

[@airinkujo3207]

I was kicked out of my home, but my boyfriend’s family offered to take me in. Would that be a situation where it would be okay to live together? We are celibate.

Bruh, watch 50 seconds of the video and the guy answers your question

[@glenmay7479]

My prayer is that people will hear this message and be touched and convicted by it. Hearing professing "Christians" speak and ignore the fact that they are living in sin is sad. May the Holy Spirit lead them to repentance . God bless.

[@kuntakinte1416]

The bible said nothing about living under the same roof for a boyfreind and girlfriend being a sin. It says fornication is sin. fornication is lust and the penentration of the female organ by the male organ. Me sleeping beside someone im dating is not breaking any of these rules. If a couple is having lust issues or can't control themselves then they either need to move into seperate rooms or move out in total untill marriage.

​​@@kuntakinte1416I hope this isn't a way for you to be in denial of the fact that it is tempting

[@kuntakinte1416]

@ichbinschlechtinclashroyal6833 doesn't tempt me. If you're clothed properly, it shouldn't be a problem.

[@ichbinschlechtinclashroyal6833]

@@kuntakinte1416 this has nothing to do with clothing. Lust and temptation don't care about your way of clothing.

[@kuntakinte1416]

@ichbinschlechtinclashroyal6833 it does, when one is dressed immodestly. you said it brings temptation when two are living together unmarried. temptation can still take effect even if they weren't living together unmarried. it depends on the person. Not everyone is sexually driven.

So how does it fall into the category

[@paulrajtubes]

*We all know Bible has no reference at all about wedding ceremony in church or anywhere. No wedding ring or marriage vows or marriage certificate mentioned in the Bible. Old Testament and New Testament. What if a man and woman take a pledge among themselves and start living together, have sex and love one another Biblically in all respects? Are not they married in the sight of God? Did I tell you most couples despite having had church weddings, marriage certificates, wedding rings, live separated (though not divorced by law), live as divorced? Biblically God sees what you are in your married life in heart and deeds, despite not having all government and church proofs*

[@sunnyjohnson992]

Marriages in ancient Bible times were registered! Under the Law marriages, as well as births resulting from the union, were recorded in the official records of the community. For this reason we have an accurate genealogy of Jesus Christ. (Matthew 1:1-16; Luke 3:23-28; Luke 2:1-5)

[@paulrajtubes]

@@sunnyjohnson992 You sound right, if we explore the source of genealogy. But again there's no mention about it in the Scripture.

[@angelacasein7059]

Yes there are many verses discussing marriage and legal things related to that

I am about to marry a man who has a one child out of wedlock. He took responsibilty to the child ..he didnt abandon him ever since he was born.but i wanna be careful with my decisions. I wanna follow God. I dont know if im in trouble now. It causes me pain and anxiety.Could someone giv me biblical advice. is it a sin against God to marry a man who has one child out of wedlock? Thank you so much and Godbless🙏

[@greatgastly9625]

Sister, I would think that it would NOT be a sin against God to marry a man who has a child out of wedlock. And I'm glad he didn't abandon the child. The Bible is silent on the matter but it does offer other important wisdom and principles that we should follow. Such as, is he a genuine Christian? (Whether he was then or now.) Has he repented of having sex before marriage? Other important things such as character, purity, holiness in living, and a fear of God and love for Christ. If it's evident that the things that are important to God for any godly man to marry one of His daughters is present, then I think it's a green light to proceed.

[@joolspools777]

No

[@dianeackermann4526]

Wrong

[@kaizersolze]

Wait a minute, I used to be a christian and this was easier to explain: cohabitating in a romantic relationship outside of marriage is adultery for both parties and adultery is a sin so romantic cohabitation is absolutely living in sin and sinning.

[@joolspools777]

It's fornication.

[@geronbalais6901]

All verses that you given is all about sexual immorality and it's different fron living in or pre-marital sex. Now what is the marriage in the Bible? Is the Bible mention that you need to perform ceremony or have a weeding ring before getting married? Hmmm ?

[@Bearsomearms]

What do I do if we moved in together after dating for a year and have known each other all our lives, I’m 21 she’s 22 she’s not saved yet but believes and I hope trust Jesus. Do I go ahead and marry?

[@taniayapa1388]

Only husband and wife are to live together. I wonder why youths are compromising

[@jordanravaelayton600]

It's commen sense. It's unwise and leads to temptation
