This girl I know says she loves God and is devoted to him. But yet she is still very imoral and doesn't have a boyfriend but has a 'screw buddy' and she sleeps with him and a few others constantly. All the while saying she is a christian. I don't thnk it is right. Because the bible says that having sex outside of marriage is wrong.

That is the issue with Christianity. It claims to be the most moral religion the world has ever known, however it simply 'forgives' a person of all their sins every sunday as if it were nothing.
If Christianity were as moral as it likes to think it is, there would be some form of reprimand or punishment or some worthy and valuable assignment to the person to do something to work their wickedness off.
If I were Christian, I could go slaughter 80 people right now, go to a church tomorrow, eat a wafer, drink some wine, sing some songs, leave and everything would be ok because God loves me and is going to put me in heaven. And then I could go do it all over again, and repeat.
If you ask me, Christianity's view of simple forgiveness of sinful/immoral acts is a detriment to our society because it makes it appear ok to do whatever the heck you want no matter what it is and in the end it will be ok.

In Gods eyes all sin is the same. Any sin you commit is the same as your friends sin. People sin because it is our nature to sin. That is our fleshy nature. Once you are saved then the part of a person that was created in Gods image (your spirit) becomes cleansed or perfected in the sight of God. When God looks at a person who has Christ in their heart He See's Jesus NOT THE PERSON or only see's the spirit that has been perfected not the flesh that is in sin.
It is not right what she is doing but how many thing have you done wrong today? How many thoughts have left you full of shame? What about pride and have you perhaps cast a judgment on someone?

Where exactly does it say that pre-marital sex is wrong? Give me the verse and you should know that 90% of all couples that are married had sex before they were wedded. Her persona life shouldn't matter to you. If God is going to punish people who had pre-martial sex then a lot of people here will be going to hell.
Black Dr- that link doesn't prove anything. Is too vague and fornication can have a lot of different meanings. Frankly, I think God cares much more about other stuff than if we have anal sex. Sexual immorality could mean many things and is not clearly specified in the bible that sex before marriage is wrong.

It is wrong to do that. My cousin is kinda like that. She has a boyfreind and sleeps with him and still says that she is a good christian. I don't get those kind of people. I tried to tell her that it is wrong but she doesn't care what I say, that isn't gonna stop her. It makes me mad because I want to help her by keeping her on the right path towards God, but she obviosly isn't gonna change by what I say. She doesn't care and she isn't sorry, so I am out of ideas on what to do.

She's talking the talk, but that's just so much BS. We're all sinners by nature, but as long as you are deliberately living outside God's will, you are estranged from Him. Perhaps her conscience will convict her and lead her to repent. Or her conscience may be seared to the point where she no longer knows that what she is doing is wrong. You should feel sorry for her, but remember that it is not your place to condemn her.

I think you can love God & be religious but still struggle and fail at putting that love into practice. It is hard to live a completely perfect life in accordance with God's will. No one is perfect and we all suffer and struggle with our own demons and inabilities. Perhaps you shouldnt focus on her immoral behavior but gently and non-intrusively help her remember why God wants her to wait until marriage.

I believe in several places the Christian bible states that fornication is a sin
for·ni·ca·tion
–noun 1. voluntary sexual intercourse between two unmarried persons or two persons not married to each other.
2. Bible. idolatry.
The book appears to be quite specific about it. It also makes a clear distinction between homosexual practices and sodomy, which most folks don't quite get.

And I suppose you consider yourself a devoted Christian despite the fact that you're judging her? Worry about your own hypocrisy and leave her alone.

If this is happening she is not a true Christian....She may of had God in her heart at one time, but it is time for her to wake up and see what she has done to herself....She is not kidding anyone, let alone God..
