"In marriage the bed is undefiled" Hebrews 13
why not do it Jesus way-respect another-why live like an animal-we get married in this life-and respect is the key to life-if u dont respect Jesus why would u even respect yourself??
i prayed and let Jesus into my heart-its wonderfull and better than my old life-i lost my g/f we never had sex but use to come close-im single but im happier than i ever have been in my life-thanks to Jesus saving me and keeping me.
I prayed-"Jesus im sorry for my sins, come into my heart and help me, be my friend, amen"
Im not a virgin but even then i respected my g/f too much and she respected herself too---i told her i was sorry for some of the stuff we did and to forgive me please---yet after that it wasnt the same-i realized my life wasnt defined by relationship-but by my relationship to Jesus the Messiah-its all good now-i sleep like a baby and have peace and joy in my soul.
jesus promises he loves us no matter what we do-yet-sin hurts him

Oh yes.....Jesus loves us no matter what, yet sin does hurt Him.
Even though Jesus forgives sins, that doesn't give us the right to sin more.....amen!!!!! God doesn't work that way.
He is truly shining through you David, even though there is war right now.....as we both know it, He is still ever-shining and that precious Light will NEVER burn out as long as He is on the thone!!!!!

Looks like it depends how strict a Jew you are... according to jewish law you should not spend time together with your girl friend alone, but technically no sin has been committed if it is consensual.
Promiscuity and Pre-Marital Sex
Many people are surprised to learn that the Torah does not prohibit premarital sex. I challenge you to find any passage in the Jewish scriptures that forbits a man from having consensual sexual relations with any woman he could legally marry. It's just not there!
Nor is there any passage that requires a man to marry a woman after having consensual sexual relations with her. The passage forcing a man to marry the woman deals with rape (the man seizes her). It says nothing about consensual relations. Some say that consensual sexual relations create a common law marriage, which can only be dissolved through divorce, though the law on this point is not clear.
This is not to suggest that Judaism approves of pre-marital sex or promiscuity. Quite the contrary: traditional Judaism strongly condemns the irresponsibility of sex outside of marriage. It is considered to be improper and immoral, even though it is not technically a sin. In fact, to prevent such relations, Jewish law prohibits an unmarried, unrelated man and woman from being alone long enough to have sexual relations. But these laws come from the Talmud and the Shulchan Aruch, not from the Torah.

Sex before marriage can ruin a relationship. Let's say you commit fornication and are engaged, you'll spend the days up to the marriage date wondering "Can I have better sex than this?" It's best to wait for marriage because that way, the love between the marriage will grow stronger.

Sex is same before or after the marriage. The secret is to learn to love one woman each time in different way. There is an infinite way to make love to you gf or wife. Unfortunately not to many couples are able to discover how to do it.

I recommend a book called "Rating Your Dating While Waiting for Mating" by Ed Young.

May I say something?
When a person gets saved, they have an adundance of spirit, and they want to share it with others.
But all to often, it causes one to go on a self-righteous trip, which is ugly to others.
Please keep witnessing, and I hope you understand what I've
said.

Yes. Sex should only be done in marriage.

I'm not sure what your question is, unless it's whether we are for or against sex before marriage.
I'm 100% for it, both before, during and after!

Yeah sex before marriage is not good, i agree, but Jews are OK with it, aren't they?
