Question

Answer 1

Yes, in Christianity, sex outside of marriage is a sin.

Answer 2

What is a marriage cage? Sex was part of life from the beginning. A very long time before religions were thought up. (mostly to control us) I too was brought up by my religion to think that sex before marriage was a sin. (I'm not muslim) and I can see that any community might see uncontrolled childbirth (which is always one risk with freedom of sexuality) as a threat to the wellbeing of the whole group, because the resouces of the group might become stretched too far and cause them to starve, for instance. Originally a sensible arrangement to begin civilisation, but like many things from the past the original reason for the action has been forgotten and we go on doing the same things over and over because we don't question why we are doing it. I believe we should use our brains and look at everything we are "expected" to do and figure out what is really sensible. Sometimes it seems easier to let some authority figure do the deciding, but that's dangerous because no person is free of confusion and conditioning, and often the most vehement are the most disturbed!

Answer 3

In Christianity, sex is for procreation not recreation and therefore sex outside of marriage is considered a sin. But sex outside the marriage cage being considered a sin...hmmm.... when I was married, it did feel like I was in a cage at times, but being that I was married if I had sex with someone other than my spouse, under the laws of Christianity, yep, that would still be considered a sin, and may or may not be legal depending on where you live.

Now if I was having sex with my spouse in a cage...I guess that would mean I am into S&M and having sex for recreational purposes instead of procreational purposes and that too would be a sin. It and may or may not be legal depending on where you live.

Sex for money would be also be considered a sin, if even with your spouse as it would be for non-procreational purposes, and illegal most places in the world, except Amsterdam and certain counties in Nevada.

Answer 4

It's a sin in every religion I have studied, not just Christianity. Even though the Atheist don' believe in sin...(and I'm guessing not marriage either since it is a holy sacrament), I would suspect they even think it's wrong if a life partner had sex out of the relationship.

Answer 5

Nowhere has Christian morality come under greater attack than in the whole area of sex outside marriage. The Biblical teaching that sex is only for marriage does not even enter the thinking of most people today. The Biblical condemnation of illicit sexual acts has become for many a license for sexual experimentation. The popular acceptance of sexual permissiveness is evidenced by the introduction and use of "softer terms." Fornication, for example, is referred to as "pre-marital sex" with the accent on the "pre" rather than on the "marital." Adultery is now called "extra-marital sex," implying an additional experience like some extra-professional activities. Homosexuality has gradually been softened from serious perversion through "deviation" to "gay variation." Pornographic literature and films are now available to "mature audiences" or "adults."

More and more, Christians are giving in to the specious argument that "Love makes it right." If a man and a woman are deeply and genuinely in love, they have the right to express their love through sexual union without marriage. Some contend that pre-marital sex releases people from their inhibitions and moral hangups, giving them a sense of emotional freedom. The truth of the matter is that pre-marital sex adds emotional pressure because it reduces sexual love to a purely physical level without the total commitment of two married people.

The Biblical condemnation of sexual relations before or outside marriage is abundantly clear. Adultery, or sexual intercourse between married women or married men and someone other than their marital partners, is condemned as a serious sin. Not only is adultery forbidden in both versions of the Decalogue (Ex 20:14; Deut 5:18), but it was also punishable by death in ancient Israel: "If a man commits adultery with the wife of his neighbor, both the adulterer and the adulteress shall be put to death" (Lev 20:10; cf. 18:20; Deut 22:22-24). The same punishment was meted out to a man or a woman who engaged in pre-marital sex (Deut 22:13-21, 23-27).

Answer 6

I am sorry but you are incorrect,it is a mentioned in the Bible as a sin.

Matthew 5:27 - Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:

Matthew 5:32 - But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causer her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.

Mark 10:19 - Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Defraud not, Honour thy father and mother.

Exodus 20:14 - Thou shalt not commit adultery.

Hosea 4:14 - I will not punish your daughters when they commit whoredom, nor your spouses when they commit adultery: for themselves are separated with whores, and they sacrifice with harlots: therefore the people that doth not understand shall fall.


Sex for money is prostitution also a sin and whoever engages without repentance will not enter the kingdom of heaven.

Answer 7

There's no such thing as true Christianity, but from a Biblical perspective, yes, any sex outside marriage is considered a sin, including prostitution.

Answer 8

While I haven't been married before, I'm intrigued by this "marriage cage" concept. How large is the cage? Obviously it must be big enough to have sex in.

I'm not sure there's room for a large cage in my bedroom, I guess it could go in the living room if I moved the couches around. Does my wife have to stay in the marriage cage all the time, or can I let her out for brief periods to cook and clean?

Answer 9

nicely people also lie, damage regulations like ingesting at the same time as using, cheat on their spouses and that does no longer mean any of it really is sweet. only because maximum folk of persons are doing something does no longer mean it really is properly. because of persons no longer taking God's commandments heavily, that's why maximum folk of marriages now bring about divorce, in addition they don't coach their little ones any morals. all of us understand the consequences of divorce now to boot. that does no longer mean we can all be perfect yet when we a minimum of attempt to be good, then the international will be a much better position. it would look unusual once you've been immersed in this liberal society for see you later, i become there once, yet once you commence reading the Bible and studying Jesus' doctrine, all of it starts to make sense. i urge you to do an same, there's a reason behind each regulation and your curiousity about this difficulty will be God calling you. :)

Answer 10

Sex outside the marriage is called adultery. It is in the 10 commandments. Thou shalt not commit adultery. Sex is a special bond between man and woman that unifies them as one in love. Having sex with so many partners defiles this act of love. People have taken love out of sex and have made it into something dirty and meaningless.
