What constitutes sexual immorality?

Question

Paul counselled us to avoid sexual immorality, but what exactly did he mean? Adultery, obviously, promiscuity, homosexuality, what about married couples who have oral or anal sex?

Answer 1

Whatever you do in marriage is fine, you and your wife should explore each other, that is what the honeymoon is for and to keep your marriage healthy you should enjoy great sex with one another...

I am a virgin and I can't wait until I get married, it will be awesome...

Except for threesomes and things like that, everything else is O.K....

Answer 2

Sexual immorality includes all you have mentioned; if not more.

Think What Would Jesus Do? he doesnt want you to have sex for several reasons.
1. pregnancy
2. everything that is done too much, is harmful
3.Sex can consume some of our fellow peers
4. It bring adultery, problems with wife and kids
5. Sex can bring diseases.
6. Sex can bring problems, like whores and pimps; and violence, and all that jazz

Think about these things, that why Paul has said dont do it, It includes a lot of what you have said, but carries the same consequence.

Answer 3

The word for “fornication” that was used when recording the statements of Jesus and his disciples is the Greek word por·nei′a. It is drawn from the same root as the modern term “pornography.” In Bible times por·nei′a was used in referring to a broad range of unlawful sexual relations outside of marriage. Por·nei′a involves the grossly immoral use of the genital organ(s) of at least one human (whether in a natural or a perverted way). Also, there must have been another party to the immorality—a human of either sex or a beast.

When urging Christians to “abstain from fornication,” the apostle Paul gave strong reasons, saying: “That no one go to the point of harming and encroach upon the rights of his brother in this matter, because Jehovah is one who exacts punishment for all these things . . . For God called us, not with allowance for uncleanness . . . So, then, the man that shows disregard is disregarding, not man, but God.”—1 Thessalonians 4:3-8.

Answer 4

nicely i could in all probability say something that doesn't comprise the act of procreation as this is purpose with out the help of severe scientific intervention from people who're in a solid kin environment. Which makes like ninety 8% of it immoral to me.

Answer 5

The problem with morality is that morals tend to be personal rules. Morals can't be applied to every person or every society, and need to be figured out in relation to your beliefs.

Whatever you believe to be imorral should be avoided, however, you can't then try to enforce your morals on to other people. If you believe oral sex to be immorral you should choose not to do it, however you can't enforce those same morals on to other couples. Those are between the person and their God/personal beliefs.

Answer 6

Before sin...sex was only for procreation, not enjoyment. Nudity was not even an issue until after the original sin.

You can only procreate in one hole and only one hole was made with this intention. Any other form of entry into the body was and is considered sodomy. God destroyed cities for this!
