Q: Will Christians have sex before getting married?
Will Christian have sex before getting married?
11 years 45 weeks ago in Relationships - China
It would depend more on how fanatic the person is with religion. One that follows each rule to the letter, probably will wait until married, one who beliefs but is not a "fanatic" will not mind that much with special persons.
The reason for this is that most Christians do believe that their bodies are the home of God, thus anything out of the Commandments is a no-no. Your behavior will be dictated by how strong you feel like explained above.

I think Victoria should definitely talk more with her boyfriend...according to all her posts...
crimochina:
cant add an answer 95 % who claim a religion will have sex before marriage
Thakkudu:
they can have sex... only problem is they they need to confess to priest every week/month or so... after confession the sin goes to god... you are clean... then can sex again..... and the priests love such confessions i heard....

Thak, some corrections to your offensive and really quite disgusting insults towards Roman Catholics.
1. Yes, the 'can' have sex before marriage. The 'problem' comes if and when the partner is not intended to be their future wife or husband. The actual problem might be abusing one another's sexuality.
2. The 'Solution' is to try not to do such a thing. 'Confession' is simply that - acknowledging some problem happened.
3. The 'sin' does not 'go to God'. The 'sin problem' was dealt with on the cross by God and if someone is repented (regrets having caused a problem) they are certainly 'clean' from spiritual debts owed. They STILL have the actual real world consequences.
4. No, then they are not somehow 'allowed to have sex again'. This is like saying you rob a bank. All you need to do is 10 years in jail and then you are 'clean' and then can rob banks again.
5. I was especially offended at your insult towards Priests as some kind of immature creepy teenage boys who do what? Who 'get off' hearing dirty little sex secrets? I suggest to you Priests are (if anything) VERY BORED AND TIRED of hearing that over and over again.
Now, lets suppose this: There is some Roman Catholics who do see it the way you described? Then they are failures at their own religion, defy their own church and should not even bother to call themselves Roman Catholics as they are really doing something contradicting RC teachings.

At Thakkadu: Confession does not work that way.
If you are not truly sorry if you do not feel like you wish you could "undo" it, then confession is just empty words.
Saying "I will do something bad and then confess so, no worries!" is not a valid confession. You need to feel in your heart the desire to be able to "take it back" just like when you say something very inappropriate and you wish you could take your words back.
Now, in answer to Victorias Question, some will wait until marriage, but many will not.
Thakkudu:
jknox: one obvious correction - "In both Christianity and Islam, pre-marital sex is prohibited." doesnt matter you will marry or not... unless you are not married in church... sex is prohibited... you should learn Christianity first before calling yourself christian... i am sure you have violated this christian rule again and again many times... you are a disgrace to real christianity ;)
Shining_brow:
Thak... you are the wrong one! Firstly, your answer only referred to certain denominations of Christianity - not all of them! in some (most?) denominations, Confession isn't a big thing (if at all, except for the psychological aspect of relieving guilt).
TruthFinder:
theoretically not but practically yes, they will have sex hundreds of thousands of times with their gfs, teachers, students, maids, and anyone and then just goto priest to forgive their evil doings and prepare for new ones
