Um nowhere in the Bible does it say that. Sounds like your bf is just trying to pull a fast one on you. If someone is that strictly adherent to the Bible, they wouldn't be haveing premarital sex since the Bible actually says a family begins when a man marries a woman. I advise you to speak to someone you trust about what's going on.
Genesis 2:24
The family is the best context in which to understand ones sexuality, and marriage is the only place where God permits sexual intimacy.
Hebrews chapter 13 (NLT)
4 Give honor to marriage, and remain faithful to one another in marriage. God will surely judge people who are immoral and those who commit adultery.
Children are to be born of parents who are married to each other. The home is the basic unit of society and is ordained of God.
Let your boyfriend know about those.
Note how the Bible uses the word marriage rather than commitment. Your boyfriend is just putting up feeble excuse after feeble excuse not to do his duty and give you and his children stability.

If you don’t want to have a lot of kids you need to tell your boyfriends this. What bible is your boyfriend reading that it say 5 kids = a true family. The bible says sex before marriage is a sin so I don’t know where your boyfriend got it that it was ok as long as it’s “committed” if he’s committed he would marry you plan and simple 1 child or no children.

There is no way I'd even have a 2nd baby after a man wouldn't marry me when I had his first. I believe God wants people to be married because sex before marriage is a sin, he's ever actually read a bible.

I don't remeber where in the bible it says that having 5 children creates a true family.
God ordained men and women to marry one another and then procreate to raise the children in the way of the Lord. That's the purpose of intercourse...and then God wants us to have wisdom, read Proverbs chapter 31. You don't want to continue having children if you can't take care of them and then what about you and your body...you've got to be able to take care of yourself, raising children is a lot of work.
I pray the best for you..

Your boyfriend is an idiot. If he won't marry you even though you've borne even ONE of his children, then he probably just doesn't want to marry you.
Plus it never says that in the bible. God says be fruitful and multiply, but also tends to look down on sex before marriage. I guess it's your call which part you want to follow.

Why don't you ask your priest/minister about this. It sounds like a pretty stupid scenario to me. And where in the bible does it say this?
I think it also says you shouldn't be having sex with someone you're not married to, but apparently your bf missed that part.

Tell that boyfriend to go back and read the bible. It also says that you are to be married to have children. Otherwise, they are considered bastards in the bible. Either you aren't for real or you are really stupid. Get married to the Father of your kids please!

When my son grew to become four, I instilled a brand new rule that he has to devour 4 bites of the whole thing. He was once agreeable with that. I watch him to make certain that he places a tight quantity on each and every forkful. He is aware of that 4 bites isn't that so much and through doing that he’s found out that he likes matters that he obviously refused to contact whilst he was once more youthful. I used to inform him always that he has to devour his meals if he desires to be enormous and powerful. Now, there’s hardly ever any suffering or cajoling. One factor he loves is pork stew and that’s chock filled with greens. Also casseroles with pasta or rice and plenty of cheese- he eats that now with out eyeballing every forkful and disposing of the greens. Here’s a recipe that I make always. My son preferred it from the primary and truthfully requests it now. Sausage Pasta Stew INGREDIENTS a million pound turkey Italian sausage hyperlinks, casings eliminated four cups water a million jar (26 oz.) meatless spaghetti sauce a million can (sixteen oz.) kidney beans, rinsed and tired a million medium yellow summer season squash, halved lengthwise and reduce into a million-inch portions two medium carrots, reduce into a million/four-inch slices a million medium candy pink or inexperienced pepper, diced a million/three cup chopped onion a million-a million/two cups raw spiral pasta a million cup frozen peas a million teaspoon sugar a million/two teaspoon salt a million/four teaspoon pepper SERVINGS eight DIRECTIONS In a nonstick skillet, prepare dinner sausage over medium warmth till not red; drain and position in a five-qt. sluggish cooker. Add water, spaghetti sauce, beans, summer season squash, carrots, pink pepper and onion; combine good. Cover and prepare dinner on low for 7-nine hours or till greens are soft. Stir within the pasta, peas, sugar, salt and pepper; combine good. Cover and prepare dinner on top for 15-20 mins or till pasta is soft.

How many do you have already? You should have as many children as you want and can afford. Why would your boyfriend marry you after 5 kids if he hasn't already?
