Answer 1

I believe it is differ from culture to culture.

When I was young, I date different gal everyweek. I was taught to treat all gals as sisters, and I did. No kiss, no touching, and of cause no sex to talk about.

My reasons (actually it was taught by YFC staff) is, we should not have problem to socialise around, and to learn from each other.

However, when things get abit more serious and mutual with someone particular, I began to move away from the other gals, and let them know I am developing a special relation with that particular person.

In the first place, all those gals know I am also seeing others. And there are few gals expected kiss and carassing during dates, and I do not offer. I was labelled as Homo, not fully male (I played rugby, swim, and do boxing! weight 86kg at 178cm)

It hurts. I know I am a straight man, with full emotions and desire. I did what I did because I wanted to respect them. It is never easy to keep my hands off them. I also know, there are many accusing me as flirt, play boy.

However, i know I am clear, as I sincerely treated them as sister in christ.

So. . . if you too, are dating more than one, and treated them as sisters, why wrong? What sin are you talking about?

Till today, some of those gals (not those horny one) are still very close to me and my wife. We oftenn share jokes and prayed for each other too. I doubt I can still do that, if I had allow my hands to roam freely.

How about you?

If we think dating is a chance to explore other's body with our finger, or boy/gal friends is to allow us to fantised sexually, pal, I think we are wrong. That person is also a child of God, and how dare we do that. Not talk about adultry or not.

If we have respect for ourselves and others, and hornor our body (as well as others), what is wrong about gong out with more than a person?

Answer 2

Oh golly, we may be sinners if we have lust for anyone but our wives or husbands? Good thing nobody has brought up the Idol worship many football, baseball, basketball, ormovie stars become. The importance of Jesus is that he tells us that he will forgive us if we ask of every sin except blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. We christians are also cautioned not to make a practice of the sin we have sought forgiveness for because not seeking forgiveness will damn us. So ask him for forgiveness and move on, just don't forget to ask him for forgiveness if you think what you have done is a sin. LOL

Answer 3

Ok, if you can't be faithful in dating, how much MORE difficult will it be to remain faithful in marriage? Very. Sounds like you have some decisions to make. Yes, the book of Matthew says that looking lustfully on a woman is committing adultry in your heart.

Answer 4

The Jehovah's Witnesses seem to think so. If you get divorced in that church for reasons other than infidelity or "Spiritual Endangerment" (AKA, your spouse disagrees with church teachings and makes it vocal), you're not allowed to get a divorce and remarry.

If you get a divorce and remarry anybody other than for those reasons, you're excommunicated, and you could no longer eligable to serve in high positions in the church until your former spouse dies. (Very liberal interpretation of the scripture that requires men to be a "husband of one wife")

On the flip side, if you do get divorced for reasons other than infidelity or vocal disagreements on doctrine, and you and your wife and you and your ex wife decide to have a hot night of ex sex, then both of you are excommunicated for having extramarital sex.

However, most Christians who aren't into esoteric Christian legalism would say that serial polygamy (AKA divorcing and remarrying) isn't adultery.

And of course, you know Christianity's stance on premarital sex, so dating while having sex is a major no no.

And if you're dating more than one person, you're not being honest to the other person, so even though that doesn't technically count as cheating, it's still considered dishonest, which is Unchristian.

Answer 5

HI! Why you don't try to read Galatians? Believe me this is a book that will open your eyes if you have any doubt about committing adultery. God give each one of us a choice. If you have a good Spiritual relationship with God, you should know very well what God thinks about adultery. Adultery can be committed in my ways. So before you ruin your self just because you think to move on and maybe make someone else jealous think twice......

Answer 6

Actually, the bible doesn't teach to look at one man or woman for f**king (as you put it). Jesus said this, whosoever looks at another person with lust, has already commited adultery in their heart. We will put that aside for the moment and pretend that you are not looking at the other person(s) that you're dating with lust. I guess, this is what I would say to you. What are your motives for dating for more than one person? Remember this, while men can only know the outward things of another person... God knows the intents and motives or our heart. What's your motivation?

Answer 8

God creates just 1 Eve for 1 Adam

remarry while your ex- is still alive is a sin

Answer 9

I think it's great that you use the "F" word and bible in the same sentence. There is a place for people like you and it is very hot there.

Answer 10

for this you know, that NO fornicator, unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ. Ephesians 5:5
