If you have sex before marriage, will you go to hell, even if your overall a good person?

Question

I just am wondering because, i dont beliefe, and correct me if im wrong, i dont think God himself (im not talking about his followers, im talkiing about God himself) said that sex before marriage (fornification) was a bad thing. I asked this queston a little while ago and some people gave me verses from the bible, but they weent said by God, they were said by men.
Is some really going to go to hell becasue they have sex before marrige, even if they are a good person overall?

Im not asking if you think its a sin or if the people who wrote the bible think its a sin, what im asking is did God Himself say it was wrong

Answer 1

no. God states that with every sin we commit, that if we repent those sins we will not have those sins put as a judgement against us. If you repent and basically appologize to god for going against his liking he will forgive you. it is people who continually sin and have no regret, that could possibly be judge and sent to hell.

Answer 2

You don't go to Hell because you had sex before marriage and you don't go to Heaven because you are a good person overall. You go to Heaven if you have turned from your sins and trusted in what Jesus did on a cross for your salvation. Anyone who thinks that God is like a balance beam judge where He weighs all of the good things that you did on one side and all of the bad things that you did on the other side and if the good weighs more than the bad you go to Heaven is in for a rude shock when they leave this earthly realm.

It's like thinking that you can be a good person and break a law and tell the judge how good you are and he is going to let you off because of that. The judge has to find you guilty because you broke the law, it doesn't matter how many times you didn't break the law or all of the good deeds you may have done.

As to your question about what God thinks about having sex before marriage, the Bible says that people who have sex before marriage need to get married.

Exodus 22:16 "If a man seduces a virgin who is not pledged to be married and sleeps with her, he must pay the bride-price, and she shall be his wife. 17 If her father absolutely refuses to give her to him, he must still pay the bride-price for virgins.

Answer 3

Let me break it down for ya:

First, sex before marriage as you know isn't approved by God. Second, hell doesn't exist, it's a symbolic place. Now, in the Bilbe it says " And the wicked ones will never resurrect ", and wicked person doesn't mean someone who kills people, does drugs, or (sex before marriage) and all that crazy stuff, but wicked in the Bible is considered as someone who doesn't accept God. So, you can be a mass murderer, and still resurect. You can be the nicest person on the earth, but if u don't accept God and his promise, or lack faith, you can be in a worse position than the mass murderer. Just an example, and to make u consider and think about that.

Well, the old covenant has been removed when Yahoshua was in the grave. The new covenant does not occur until the wedding feast and Yasoshua re-marriages us as the nation of Israel.

Now ,the others churches have assume to nail the law of Gog to the cross as well.

The point is no one else is in any better place than you, we all need to be saved. Give yourself a break!!!!

Answer 5

Verses from the Bible are the Word of God and are from God through man. However, I won't give you verses, just truth, which seems to be fleeting here in some of these answers. You can only get to heaven through Jesus, accepting who he is and accepting him into your life. No matter what a person has done, just ask the Son of Sam, former mass murder, now in the hands of Christ and sharing the gospel in jail. Sin is sin, we all do it, we all will go to hell if we don't know Christ.

Answer 6

being a good person isn't how you get to heaven. acts on earth have no affect in your standing with God. And yes having sex before marriage is a sin and any and all sins keep you from God, and by proxy Heaven.

there is only one way to God and that is through Jesus the Christ. Pray for your salvation, seek guidance from a preacher, have him guide you through your ordeal yes.

Answer 7

Everything the Bible tells you comes from God unless stated otherwise. Premarital sex is a sin but sins are forgivable because Jesus died for our sins.

Answer 8

i dont think any man would ever write sex is a sin before marriage. The commandment is from God

Answer 9

Does the Bible teach that sexual relations are sinful?

Gen. 1:28: “God blessed them [Adam and Eve] and God said to them: ‘Be fruitful and become many and fill the earth.’” (Fulfilling this divine command would require that they have sexual relations, would it not? Doing so would not be sinful but would be in harmony with God’s purpose for the populating of the earth. Some persons have thought that the ‘forbidden fruit’ in Eden was perhaps a symbolic reference to a divine restriction or even a prohibition of sexual relations on the part of Adam and Eve. But that conflicts with God’s command quoted above. It also conflicts with the fact that, although Adam and Eve ate of the forbidden fruit in Eden, the first mention of their having sexual intercourse was after they had been expelled from there.—Gen. 2:17; 3:17, 23; 4:1.)

Gen. 9:1: “God went on to bless Noah and his sons and to say to them: ‘Be fruitful and become many and fill the earth.’” (This further blessing, together with a restatement of the divine command to procreate, was given after the global Flood in Noah’s day. God’s viewpoint toward lawful sexual relations had not changed.)

1 Cor. 7:2-5: “Because of prevalence of fornication, let each man have his own wife and each woman have her own husband. Let the husband render to his wife her due; but let the wife also do likewise to her husband. . . . Do not be depriving each other of it, except by mutual consent for an appointed time, . . . that Satan may not keep tempting you for your lack of self-regulation.” (What is wrong is thus shown to be fornication, not proper sexual relations between husband and wife.)

Is the Bible’s view regarding sex perhaps old-fashioned and needlessly restrictive?

1 Thess. 4:3-8: “This is what God wills . . . that you abstain from fornication . . . So, then, the man that shows disregard is disregarding, not man, but God, who puts his holy spirit in you.” (The Bible’s view regarding sex is not simply something that was developed by certain humans who lived many years ago. It comes from mankind’s Creator; it makes clear what is required in order to have his approval; it also provides guidelines that contribute to stable families and wholesome, happy relationships outside the family. Those who apply this counsel safeguard themselves against the deep emotional scars and loathsome diseases that go with immoral conduct. The Bible’s counsel is very much up to date in meeting the needs of those who want a clean conscience before God and a life free from needless frustration.)

FORNICATION: Illicit sex relations outside of Scriptural marriage. The Hebrew verb za·nah′ and its related forms convey the idea of harlotry, immoral intercourse, fornication, or prostitution. (Ge 38:24; Ex 34:16; Ho 1:2; Le 19:29) The Greek word translated “fornication” is por·nei′a. Regarding the meanings of por·nei′a, B. F. Westcott in his book Saint Paul’s Epistle to the Ephesians (1906, p. 76) says: “This is a general term for all unlawful intercourse, (I) adultery: Hos. ii. 2, 4 (LXX.); Matt. v. 32; xix. 9; (2) unlawful marriage, I Cor. v. I; (3) fornication, the common sense as here [Eph 5:3].” Bauer’s Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament (revised by F. W. Gingrich and F. Danker, 1979, p. 693) defines por·nei′a as “prostitution, unchastity, fornication, of every kind of unlawful sexual intercourse.” Porneia is understood to involve the grossly immoral use of the genital organ(s) of at least one human; also there must have been two or more parties (including another consenting human or a beast), whether of the same sex or the opposite sex. (Jude 7) The unlawful act of a rapist is fornication, but, of course, that does not make the person who is forcibly raped also a fornicator.

Answer 10

Grace gets you into heaven , the road to hell is paved by good people with good intentions.
Sin separates you from grace.
Do you think it is OK to take Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit to your fornication event ? Do you not know they dwell in you.
You know it is wrong ,why don't you resubmit a question:
I want to sin because I want to have sex ,someone can you tell me its all good so I won't feel guilty.
