If my bf and I who have been together and live together for 5 years have foreplay but not intercourse, is that a sin according to the bible?

I have been married once, and I don't think that marriage is worth doing because it means nothing to people anymore. It don't help the relationship any. In some cases, it makes it worse.

No, it is not a sin. A sin would be killing millions of people in the name of some imaginary man that lives in the sky.

If you and your boyfriend have been together for five years and do not share foreplay that is a sin. Living together without being married is considered a sin. Having intercourse is not a sin it is a pleasure and adding foreplay it is Ecstasy!!

Are you on crack,,, tell me you guys live together for five years and have only had foreplay! According to the bible it is a sin to live together out of wedlock........touching, petting and other foreplay is a sin, so after five years of "foreplay", i would think of repenting!

No! If you feel that he is the right one & you are comfortable with him & have long term plans then you have nothing to be afraid of.
According to the bible sneezing the wrong way is a sin. Don't go by that ancient book of lies & fairy tales! Live your life, it's the only one you'll get!

If you are touching eachother in the private parts and seeing eachother naked that is still sex. That is fornication. Quit it and repent. Living together is not a good idea either. So yes you are sinning. Sex is great...but in a marriage, enjoy eachother in marriage. Seems like you want to do whats right. God bless you, Im glad you are asking about it. Here is an article about what you are going through. http://www.growthtrac.com/artman/publish/article_550.php
I know its tough but dont give up. God has done wonders for me in keeping away from lust and fornication and I know if you pray about it you will be able to stay away from it with GOD's power. Have people pray for you and have faith.

Sex is normal, both foreplay and forever. It requires love, respect for each other, and yourself, and responsibility. If these are present. Have fun but don't forget your own obligations and be careful with everyone else's.
Don't listen to these small minded and so called self identified Christians! They are closed minded, cold of heart and scared of life.

You live together, that's the problem. It is difficult to wait until marriage, don't make the problem bigger by living with him! Get married.
I understand what you're going through. It took less than a year before my wife and I couldn't wait to get married (and we did not live together). I can't imagine how difficult (or impossible?) it would have been like if we had lived together.

Isn't it just a bit late to be worried about such things?
You are not smoldering from a lightning strike are you? Why on earth do people preoccupy themselves with being worried about whether or not God is going to hurt them? Don't you think God has more important matters to tend to, like Darfour? Do you think your hanky-panky hurts anyone? There are millions of people dying and suffering in the world. I think if you support a relief fund or give money to a worthy cause God would let you and your boyfriend go all the way.

Anything is a sin especially if you think that it is. That's not what Christianity is about anyway. We are sinners. Christians told God that if they did what's called the 'Sinner's Prayer.'
So not doing one or another sin doesn't make us Christian, but we who trust God through Jesus Christ are saved and thus Christian, as people call it.
That brings the 'covering' for sin, as Jesus was the sacrifice for sin, so the believer is covered if they trust God to do what it is that He said He would do.

You are supposed to keep yourself pure before you are married. foreplay is just the same as having sex - Not physically, but mentally. Mentally you are giving yourself to him - even though you aren't having intercourse.
