being a christian is mean that Jesus take all your sin so you'll be born again\nbut how can we do that\n\nwe have to repent\nthats mean forget the life we have in the past and starting a new life in a path that God command us\n\nSex is good and God make that for us , but only to make glory of his name , in a sacret of a mariage\nif you feel what you did now is wrong pray to God for his forgiveness and start your life the way His will\n\nwe are only human , not perfect and sin\n\nfind your self a nice man to be husband , and give glory to God\n\nput your time for worship Him\n\nread a bible\n\nkeep your mind off from sex\n\nsex is nt the only think that matter in the world

Did you enjoy it? Did you seek it out? Did you ask for it again? Is this a recurring behaviour? If you answered yes to any of these questions it still doesn't mean anything! Lots of people have isolated same-sex experiences. And it is entirely possible that you may be bisexual (everyone always forgets about us!). If this was forced on you that is rape and does not "make" you gay any more than me going into a church "makes" me a Christian.

Christianity is not prudish about sex.\n \nUnless you count "prudishness" as the requirement that sex only take place between a husband and wife.  Who are married to each other.  And no pornography and/or animals are involved.\n\nIf you can't have great sex with your spouse within these confines, it's not Christianity that's to blame.  It's you.\n\nPeace and love in Jesus.

No. I am an adulterous Christian. (divorce, remarriage)\n\nOne sins no greater than the other. Let them be.

as far as I know it is not considered a sin to live together according to the Bible, but it is a sin to have sex before marriage and I don't know many people who live together that don't have sex, so it is up to you to draw the line to be able to stay away from sex before marriage

No where in the bible does it command you to pray to the mother mary.  She is not a god, only a holy vessel used by God for her obediance to the law commanding to stay pure until marriage, nothing more.  The bible says the only way you can be born again or saved is to accept Christ as your personal savior.  And as a born agian Christian you should be trying to convert others, trying to save them from hellfire, this is commanded by Christ.  If you have anymore questions contact me at sbosleyjr@yahoo.com

I doubt fun things like orgasms are allowed in the Christian heaven.  You're going to need to go to Islam heaven for that sort of thing.  Just ask for a transfer. :)

You can ABSOLUTELY serve the Lord and never be married. It is not for all persons to be married. Paul actually said it was better for man not to be married (so I'll just assume woman too). I think God can really do "more" in some ways with the unmarried folk...just think about it. You aren't responsible for anyone else's life. If God decides to send you cross country, you don't have to figure out how it will disrupt the rest of your family (hubby and children). You should read Marriable (can't remember the authors). It talks all about how God can really use the single and how it is important to fully serve God before you get married. Several of the "relationship" and marriage books in the Christian section actually touch on this subject.\n\nMy only precaution is try not to be bitter. You say you've been hurt, and you don't want to be hurt again. If God ever puts it on your heart that you should get married, you need to listen. We cannot let our fears dictate our futures.

I was just having this conversation with God yesterday with the same question?  I didn't know it was for you.\nThere is only one reasonyou are feeling this way.  Everything, believe it or not, was created for a purpose-- even you. \n          " For I know the plans I have for you, " declares the Lord, plans to prosper you, not harm you.  To give you a hope and future."  Jeremiah 29:11\n Sex was for made for the coming together of a man and a woman but not outside of the marriage guidelines.  Sex is a beautiful thing and even more beautiful when it is with someone who loves you despite your bad breath, messy hair.  It is even more beautiful when that person is someone God has especially chosen for you and has strengths that you do not have and sees that a relationship with God is first priority and being everything that God has created him for as being part of that (loving husband, good provider, great father).  This person does exist.  Now that i know the truth of the matter in those people who might seem like they are happy are not happy they just have not been told by someone how special they are and that they are loved and accepted no matter their flaws.  So they go with what everyone else or so they think, does.  Sweetie,  you are special and there is no reason for you to sell yourself cheap.  You have been bought for a high price already and no one can pay as much as He can for your life.  I wasn't a virgin when I got married,  but everyday I wish that i could have waited.  God didn't set up laws to punish us, but to protect us( needless hurt, pain,  wasted time, disease and baby mama/daddy drama).  There is no such thing as separating love and sex unless you have a heard heart or no heart at all.  Don't try to fit into the world's standards-follow God's and he'll send you your true mate.     \nJesus loves you.( now smile)

Yes, you deffinately should save it for marriage! I don't know how religious you are, but I want you to know that I'm not a religious nut. But, God does say that we should save ourselves for marriage. B/c [and this isn't just for religious people] our bodies are meant for ONLY our husband or wife. If you have sex before marriage, then when you get married, you're body isn't completely hers. And, visa versa. I don't know if that made sense to you. Now, I'm a 16 year old girl, and a lot of times I want to do something w/ the opposite sex, but I don't b/c when I get married, I want to be completely his. I don't want to have used myself already... I would feel that I was letting him down. Let me know if that helped okay? Good luck. lol.

I sympathize with you on this one. I grew up with a strictly Catholic mother. Everything was a sin, and my sisters and I were going to Hell for everything we did. Well, you have to develop your own beliefs and morals. I am not very religious anymore, I still attend church every now and then, but I am more spiritual than religious. \n\nI waited until I was 18 before I started dating, not because of my mother, but because I was just not ready. I was like you, I didn't know how to flirt or how to be in a relationship. To tell you the truth, I still don't. I lost my virginity to a guy that just used and abused me. Just follow your heart. 9 out of 10 times, when you feel something is morally wrong, you probably shouldn't do it anyway because there will not be a good outcome. I would suggest trying to socialize with people online or going out with friends. Go on a blind date.\n\nI am 23 now and I have been with a few men, most have been real a**holes and have left me brokenhearted. Just don't settle for any guy, find someone that will understand and appreciate your family and beliefs. Sex is more fun when you have an emotional connection with someone. It involves so much more than the physical act.

Pray for a wife.............I applaud your loyalty an God does too. But according to the Bible porn is a sin. I would strongly recommend you start thinking about marriage and don't just rush into it. Good luck and God Bless.

I'm a Christian, but I'd be that Christianity declares that about 90% of sex is sinful.  I can't see how it was a sin to sleep with my wife a few months before we were going to get married anyway...Sex is not a dirty little act that should be shunned by everyone...but the church thinks so.

I'm trying to understand how you could be at one time "born again" and then "unborn". Please explain. Either you are a backslidden Christian or you never believed to begin with. If it's the first scenario, we don't have to beg God...He takes us back willingly, He LONGS to have fellowship with us again, so I would reexamine my heart if I were you...something doesn't sound right....the only good book you need is the Bible!

As far as not believing some doctrine of God?  Yes, you can still be Christian.

Not born again..... but a true christian would not fornicate/commit adultery.  However, we are imperfect and we will make mistakes.  Be honest and be ready to face the consequences of your mistake.  Tell your spouse.  If you don't, it's like lying....and don't forget, the father of the lie is Satan and we don't want to do his will!\n\nClick below for articles based on Bible scriptures to assist you further.   \n\nI hope the best for you or who ever you're asking the question for.

no no no. you SHOULD be a virgin at the age of 17. i'm 16 and i'm still a virgin, planning on saving myself for until after i get married. sex is a symbol of love between a husband and a wife. it's not something you give to just anyone. be proud of such a thing and try to keep it until AFTER you're married. i think that when you do finally get with that right person, it'll make it much more of a special moment than if you do it before.
