can a christian couple sleep togther ?

[mourning dove]

Not only is it fornication and so not biblically nor morally acceptable; but I think it involves an emotional commitment not equal to a covenant such as the blessing of a marriage in which vows are made to each other. This intimacy should be reserved for married people..even though the media and society in general would approve and promote sex outside of marriage and in many contexts..as Christians we can be merciful, forgiving, and caring..but we can't excuse it nor proclaim it as right nor morally acceptable. Morality does not evolve. God's word remains the same..

This question smacks of seeking permission or otherwise trying to gain validation for a deed already done. I can't think of a single instance in the Bible in which premarital or extramarital sex isn't either immediately condemned or doesn't bring about calamity in the lives of the ones involved. The same is true today. If this applies to you, stop. If you haven't already, dont.

is it ok for a christian girlfriend/boyfriend to sleep together ??

yes

no

maybe

Yes!

My Bible says somewhere - whether you eat or drink, do it for the glory of God.

Therefore, if the couple is having sex for the glory of God, then its okay.

The bible is not a book for taking words at random.....and out of context which is what you are doing Rupert


The bible aslo says.......somewhere "Judas went out and hanged himself"

The bible also says......somewhere "go and do thou likewise"
