Any Guys left that believe in Sex only within the Bounds of Marriage?
Posted : 9 Jan, 2010 07:06 PM

I only date Christian guys, but I am having a hard time finding one who believes it is wrong to have premarital sex. I tell them that I would like to have a pure relationship with them, and they tell me that it is only "natural" to want each other sexually. Here's my question to you guys .... Are there any guys that have the same goal as me? The goal being to have a dating relationship with someone, fall in love with them, get married and then have sex? Or am I fighting a losing battle?

Can't wait to hear the responses!!!

Faithful,

(I know I am not a guy but.....)

You are a beautiful (look at your photo). cherished, most precious daughter of the Most High God! Even if none but one was willing to wait for marriage to give himself to you, it is what your Father has asked of you. It sets you high above the world and it allows Him to shower you with blessings! As magnificent as making love can be, it pales in comparison to the love God has for us if we walk in his light and His will.

I dont want you to think that all of us dont struggle with this very issue.... but it is most important to keep our eyes ulitimately on our Father. Especially when it comes to our moral stanndards and our walk with Him.

You are doing exactly as He asked you, and dont let the world let you question those standards you have set for yourself.

There are great blessings in store for you, Sweet Daughter!

Hello thread folks :waving:

Faithful2end,

Recently, in the Over 40 Chatroom, a lady told how she had met a man online (on this site) and had been dating him for a couple of months. She said he had all the appearances of being a decent Christian. However, adn I won't elaborate on what all happened except to say; she found out otherwise. Not only did he ask her to have sex; she found out he was having it with another woman. Now how horrible and detestable is that? < rhetorical question @ utterly disgusting!

I don't know how new you are to online dating. Me? About one year. I've heard 'stories' (such as above) since the beginning. Others on the thread have mentioned some people are new Christians, and that they do not know premarital sex is wrong (and to illustrate this, I saw someone actually ask about it in the chat...they honestly did not know! Thankfully, someone provided quite a few relevant texts for this person)!

So. Though it may seem like 'preaching to the choir' to say one doesn't believe in pre-marital sex; I decided to add a paragraph in my profile to state it. Why? Well, I asked the lady I mentioned in my first paragraph if the man she dated ever mentioned what he believed about it -- and he had not. She never asked him about it. "I go to church and read the Bible" on someone's profile might be good stuff on a person's profile. But I've concluded that it's important to also state what is 'obvious' about sex (biblically speaking) --- simply so women will know I'm not a 'player'. When reading profiles, I also look to see if this is stated. Why? Because there are women 'players' too...even on sites like this. May God grant us discernment and wisdom in all we do, Amen. I hope this may be of some help to you, Faithful2end. Thanks.

You probably have too loose of a definition of "Christian". If a man is informed of the Scriptures and does not seek to reserve sex (and sensuality, for that matter) for the marriage bed, I can scarcely believe he could have the Holy Spirit.



"Not all who say 'Lord, Lord' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who DOES the will of My Father."(Matt. 7:21).



Fornication (sex before marriage) is one of the lifestyles that is noted by Paul as characterizing those who will not enter the kingdom of heaven (I Cor. 6:9ff).



In America, so many people call themselves Christians but do not love the Lord their God. Even Mormons, Jehovah's Witnesses, Church of Christ, Church of God, Scientologists, etc. call themselves Christians, yet deny fundamental orthodox views such as not believing Christ is God. And Jesus said in John 8, "If you do not believe that I AM (title for God the Father), you will die in your sins."



The best context in which to find a Christian man to date is within a church, assisted by leaders who are Bible following, orthodox Christians.

Well truth be told I at 18 years old I have made the mistake of premarital sex, this was prior to my finding God. It truly destroyed my relationship with the girl. I realize now that sex does belong only in marriage, and since then I have remained that way. So to answer the original question yes there are many guys out there who maybe now believe that, but i'm sure they will have made there mistakes in life like any human.

Dear Christian Guy,



I really appreciate your input (especially the reference to I Corinthians 6:9. By the way, I have been divorced for 4 years, and decided for the first time last month to date a man in my church (instead of guys on the internet as I have in the past). Sorry to say ... he thinks there is nothing wrong with a man and woman showing their affection for each other in a sexual way before marriage. I am no longer dating him. LOL



I have received much encouragement from many of you who have posted on this topic, and I feel more empowered than ever before in my endeavor to save myself for marriage.



I know I can find the needle in the haystack with God's help!



Thanks everyone,



Faithful2end

Hello,



I feel that if someone does not hold to saving sex for marriage they will also violate every other precept that a TRUE follower of Christ is obedient to follow. Not saving sex for marriage is a relationship deal breaker for me. Its one of the first five questions I ask someone I am interested in seeing.



I even go a step further and have boundaries where opposite sex friends are concerned within an exclusive relationship.



See my "Opposite Sex Friends" blog on my profile and feel free to leave your comments on it too.



GBU all
