Sexual immortality?

Question

What exactly is it? I need to know so I can stay away from it.

Can I be forgiven for it?

Answer 1

God has instructed that anything outside of the marriage of a man and woman is a sin. He has also warned by the word of his son that any thought of impure thoughts (lust etc.) is just as sinful as the actual act.
In other words, wait until you are married and enjoy sex in your marriage with someone you love.

Answer 2

Immortality or immorality? Immortality means never dying. I'd say that's a good thing. Immorality means doing something that is immoral. Depending on what you subscribe to, your morals will be different. Someone telling you what morals you need to have is actually talking about ethics. Ethics are morals that other people follow. Your morals are your own. So it's up to you to decide what it morally right and wrong based on your observations of the world. Don't let anyone tell you what you can and can't do with your own body. Enjoy it, it's yours and no one else's. Share it with whomever you choose.

The comments listed above are all from a Catholic (or similar) standpoint. This means you are following ethical guidelines (like the law). Following the law doesn't necessarily mean doing what's right. It means doing what other people expect you to do. Read over the bible if you are christian and try and understand it for yourself. God may not be the fire and brimstone type that people have told you about. If people followed the catholic premise of only engaging in sex to reproduce, the human race would disappear in no time, because women are only fertile for a few days each month. It's unfortunate that a religion would tell people that the most natural human act, the only act that keeps the species in existence, is also considered dirty and shameful.

Answer 3

I think you mean immorality. The bible describes it as any sexual gratification outside of the confines of marriage.

masturbation, oral sex anything that derives sexual pleasure with someone other then your spouse is sexually immoral. God inteanded sex to be pure and amazing between a husband and wife. When we participate in it prior your giving a huge part of yourself physically, spiritually, emotionally, mentally to someone else and if it's not in a commited life long relationship they take that when you break up. It's harder for those who are sexually active prior to marriage to truly enjoy the intamacy that marriage provides.

So wait, bite the bullet and trust that you will have such an amazing experience if you share it with just one person. No basis of comparison, just true joy in experiencing love with the one you spend the rest of your life with.

You know what the difference between immorality and immortalility a "t" (cross) right in the middle.

To answer your follow up question. Yes you can be forgiven. The scars might remain but as long as you repent, which means to turn away from it there is forgiveness and also a 2nd chance to get it right. There is a term of being a born again virgin. This doesn't mean you're physically again, but you have a commitment to regane purity and remain pure until you're married. You just have to be serious and not waver in you decision or you'll going to live a very conflicted life and eventually become too numb to truly enjoy intimacy almost entirely. We've all made mistakes and sometime the consequences stick with us for a long time, but God forgives and forgets and can heal the wounds that are often self inflicted

So keep hope and do what you know is right.

we were created for a purpose and with a special design. sex was god created also. by not respecting those creations and abusing them, we are guilty of sexual immorality. it is not just sex out of marriage, but the abuse of sex. rape, porn, pedophilia, and even the inability to tell the difference between sex and love. there are a few things i have told my kids. 1. every sexual partner you have in your life, you are also having sex with all of their previous partners. 2. you are giving away a part of yourself that you can never get back. and 3. with aids and stds being so prevalent; look at that person and ask yourself if you are willing to die an excoriating death for them. if you don't like any of those, a great rule of thumb is; if you can't tell your parents, teacher, preacher or grandparents about it, then don't do it. you already know it is wrong. sex was created to be something wonderful between a man and woman that are committed forever to each other.

Answer 5

I assume you mean morality and not mortality...I guess Viagra has helped sex not die for some people....Morality on the other hand is a personal issue, and it is nobody's place to say what your morals should be. If you are a responsible, ethical person, you are capable of making your own moral choices that are best suited to your lifestyle, and your plans for the future. Many people argue that sex before marriage, or homosexuality are morally wrong, but it really just comes down to their own opinions. Naturally they will tell you that god has decreed this things morally wrong, but if people are incapapble of juding for themselves what their morals should be, and they have to rely of the writings of Stone Age tribesmen then you really shouldn't want their opinion anyway...Decide for yourself: Do you want to wait until marraige? Do you think that same-sex sex is wrong? Do you think it is okay to have children out of wedlock? Are the teachings of your church important enough for you to want to incorporate them into your sex life? Do you think multiple partners is wrong? Take time to really ask yourself these questions, and when you are satisfied with the answer you will know what YOUR morals are.

Answer 6

You should not be afraid of sexual feelings, but you should be responsible in the way you treat yourself and your body. If you treat sex as something that involves lots of love and respect then it's not immoral. Sex should bring two people closer together and strengthen a relationship. Sex shouldn't be used as a tool for getting what you want.

Answer 7

you mean IMMORALITY. basically anything that goes against "good christian values" sex before marriage, masturbation, porn, deviant thoughts - anything of this nature. absolutely, appalling if you think about they way religion is dictating how everyone is supposed to treat their "natural desires". it creates a blanket of shame in people and essentially destroys ones ability to discover their own bodies and explore sexuallity in a healthy way. i don't think porn or deviant sexual behaviour would be such an epidemic if it wasn't for the puritans and die-hard christians programming people's minds that almost everything under the sun is "wrong". it's just pathetic.

Answer 8

Sexual Immortality? That is what I am looking for...to be recognized throughout eternity as being a sex god!

Answer 9

Yeah, I'm not sure what sexual immortality is, but everyone who was talking about immorality had it right.

Answer 10

Plenty, such as fornication, extra-marital relationships, masturbation, oral, anal or other orifices... depending of which religion you believe.In Islam you are not supposed to "uncovered" while having sex!

Abstain and become a nun. Oh What's a waste!
