It is good for a man not to touch a woman. Nevertheless, because of sexual immorality, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband. Let the husband render to his wife the affection due her and likewise also the wife to her husband.
1 Corinthians 7:2,3

Okay so I was reading 1 Corinthians and came across this verse. And was a little a confused. So if we are not married, then we are not allowed to have any affection with each other what so ever. Like I understand we are not supposed to have sex before marriage. But not even cuddling, kissing, lol spooning, etc as well?
The "It is good for a man not to touch a woman" is the modifier to 'sexual immoraility,' so, that tells us that the 'touch' here is something that LEADS to sex before marriage, or, sexual immorality.

So, the verse of 'It is better to marry than burn with passion' applies here, Paul says it too. I think, no, I know, the power of the Holy Spirit in us WILL keep us treating each other right as the guy LEADS the relationship as Christ would have Him do, the man will have the understanding that He and not he is in control and BEFORE marriage (just as after marriage) guys ARE to understand that to do things atypical to the bible is not a good biblical thing to do / Sounds kind of confusing, I know. :) But, then again, so are relationships' and what's the best way to go about them :) The Lord leads :) His power in YOU will guide you in the relationship, this goes for the guy AND GIRL but THIS, miladies, is WHY you are to pray, pray, pray, (just like the guy is doing too, who is a Christian and follower of Christ)for the right man, the right understanding, the right choices, because that all LEADS to the REAL Mr. Right for you. Put God in the MIDDLE of your beginning thinking of relationship going outings and NEVER leave that thinking from your mind; keep in mind, we all make mistakes, have in past, in relationships, to some extent, we are to wait on Him and He will keep us settled if we trust in Him, have faith in His leading us to the 'right' situation. We will be UNHAPPY, maybe, become eternally unsecure even, IF we get into the WRONG relationship :(

A relationship going-into is VITALLY important to your spiritual health, even understanding, pray to God for just the RIGHT person for you. This is a good ask, and, Jesus says that if we ask anything in His name, it will be given us. Now, for getting a mate, it may be later than sooner he/she given, but God is faithful and I'm older than you, giagal, by quite a few years but I am STILL waiting on Him :)

Peace be with you, according to the Holy Scripture of the Holy Bible, learn to distinguish between the spirit of error and the spirit of truth.
On who's side are you on?
On your own understanding or to trust the LORD JESUS CHRIST with all your heart according to the New Covenant?
'GOD is no respective of men.'

They should be reserved for marriage.
Yep, this is actually the early stages of foreplay. Now, in this society today people think that one is a prude to be very conscious of saving oneself for marriage, but it is the way to a happy and successful marriage.

As for Pual's instruction concerning wishing that all were like him at that time, read the context...

1Co 7:26 I suppose therefore that this is good for the present distress, I say, that it is good for a man so to be.

For a good deal of Paul's ministry he believed that he would live to see the end of the age and the return of Christ...

1Co 15:51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
1Co 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

1Th 4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

Not until very near the end of his life did he come to realize that he would not see the return.

Peace be with you, you are just another joker who claims all things are acceptable and eternal.
'Ever learning but never come to the knowledge of the truth.'
i may fail but the Holy Scripture of the New Covenant of GOD's love through CHRIST never fails.
May GOD the FATHER of our LORD JESUS CHRIST forgive and bless you in spirit and truth in order to truly worship HIM.
Today the Word of GOD is shared, it is okay to compromise, for GOD the FATHER of our LORD JESUS CHRIST understands, for HE understands? HE loves sin against HIS Word?
So let us excuse others and continue so that the Kingdom will be filled with throne and thistles.

Fredjames do you burn incense? If you do make sure you get plenty of oxygen.

I was kind of wondering what make these things acceptable after marriage? You are still ''fornicating'' and you are still lusting after the flesh, nothing really changed there. Because you are 'one flesh' is no explanation, any sexual activity with your spouse would be masterbation if that were the case :p

Peace be with you. do you want to be a fornicator or adulterer? The Holy Scriptures clearly speaks about relationship.
There is no two ways about it?
Choose one, acknowledge and stick to it and share with others by the help of CHRIST the HOLY SPIRIT.
This will determine one's future to the FATHER's place of rest or be counted as 'lawlessness' christians.

really? is that what you think I am? a joker? first of all, I aint joking...... what you said to that poor girl was repulsive, you don't go spewing that kind of "witnessing" to young believers in christ. it is WRONG!

i may fail but the Holy Scripture of the New Covenant of GOD's love through CHRIST never fails.

and tell me where I compromised? do share this divine revelation about my walk with GOD, when it came to answering Gai's question.

you sir, stand behind your "GOD bless such and such" and curse the ground they walk on because of their sins and call your post~~~~ "ok"

It is a good post, FJ, we are to pray to God for help in discerning which is a good person to go out with. The Lord leads. :) , I am not sure about the 'spirit of error,' there is just a person called The Devil, who is REAL and who REALLY wants you to trust in him, who will take you down a road more travelled, that will end up candily and sweetly leading you to a promised land that is DEATH , a 'fall' of death, if you will, and, so, who do you want to lead you ? He or he. The choice is ours, we will err (greatly) IF we don't choose He who is in us who is the Spirit of truth :)

HEY. POINT OUT ALL MY SINS PLEASE,

OR

HEY, WHAT DO YOU ALL THINK ABOUT MY GOING OUT AND HAVING WILD CRAZY SEX BEFORE MARRIAGE????


no, she just wants to know about cuddling, and what others thought that scripture says about it. she isn't asking to be judged by the clothes she wears or her walk with GOD......

We have be careful, and have the right wisdom about such thing. I'm sure God don't mind us giving a hug to one another and maybe a kiss on the cheek maybe part of a greeting because we not seen or heard from in long time. But with that in mind, we have to be careful in not to even do that in the wrong way too. As we all live in this world were someone being spotted hugging someone in the street, maybe be innocent, but to the person who spotted, may take it wrong and then of course you have sinned to God and all that. Many people are too quick to point the finger and judge.

Not only that. I personally don't think its a good idea to go any further than a hug and maybe a kiss on a cheek, only as a greet or a friendly hug. As we all know, Sexual feelings can be confusing to many, and then leads on to going further than just a little hug or even a kiss. All I can say is to have the right wisdom and seek God for the right answer so that you can understand that verse. Asking people may seem appropriate and you may have one or two sound advice, but it opens a wider understanding through many mistakes of people's own personal errors, which then, the question you are confused about, will become even more confusing, and you be back were you started. Best thing to do, is to seek God for his understanding, he will reveal it, if you are willing to hear it.
