Question:<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

If I have already been\u00a0twice with him, how is\u00a0it better now?<\/em><\/span> To abstain from sexual relations\u00a0until we marry?<\/em><\/span> We have been dating for a year\u00a0and we have at least three years until we graduate from college. <\/em><\/span>He believes that God has already given us His consent, since our love is honest and we do not deceive ourselves. <\/em><\/span>I explained him that\u00a0we agreed by ourselves, without Him, because we did not get married to be able to take what\u00a0belongs to us\u00a0without hiding.<\/em><\/span> I\u2019d like some\u00a0advice to help both of us from now on.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

<\/em><\/p>\n

Sexual relations are permissible by God\u00a0only in marriage<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

You said well\u00a0when you explained to\u00a0your boyfriend that you had\u00a0taken by yourselves and stolen\u00a0what God had prepared to give you\u00a0at the right moment and legally, by marriage.<\/span> Marriage is the\u00a0conclusion of\u00a0the covenant of marriage.<\/span> God created sexual relationship and the only legal\u00a0framework for it is marriage between a man and woman, between a husband and his wife.<\/span> This is one of the first truths\u00a0shown by God in the Bible:<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother, and be joined to his wife; and they shall become one flesh.<\/span><\/span> (Genesis 2:24)(NASB)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Every sexual relationship outside marriage is sinful<\/span> <\/strong><\/p>\n

In the Epistle to the Hebrews God says:<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Marriage is to be held in honor among all, and the marriage bed is to be undefiled; for fornicators and adulterers God will judge.<\/span><\/span> (Hebrews 13:4)(NASB)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

By the fact that you started to have sexual relations when you were not married, you have defiled your bed, i.e.\u00a0your future sexual life and you have drawn\u00a0God\u2019s judgment upon you.<\/span> To continue to have sex without being married means to\u00a0insist on your fornication and thereby to further defile\u00a0your marriage and MARRIAGE\u00a0as the divine institution.<\/span><\/p>\n

Avoid sexual immorality<\/span> <\/strong><\/p>\n

God calls all Christians to this:<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For this is the will of God, your sanctification; that is, that you abstain from sexual immorality;\u00a0that each of you know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honor,\u00a0not in lustful passion, like the Gentiles who do not know God;\u00a0(1 Thessalonians 4:3-5)(NASB)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Neither the fact that\u00a0you have known each other\u00a0for one year nor the one that you have three more years until graduation is an excuse for fornication.<\/span> If you fear God and if you care about your future marriage and your children, then you have to cease sexual relations until marriage.<\/span> It is your choice to get married now or wait until you graduate college.<\/span> But beware of fornication.<\/span> God help you so.<\/p>\n
