No SEX Before or Apart from Marriage



○Hebrews 13:4
○“Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous.”

What does an undefiled marriage bed look like? It looks like a bed that a husband and a wife share exclusively together. Any kind of sex that is before or outside or in addition to a married relationship of husband and wife is sinful according to the Bible.

○1 Corinthians 7:2
○“But because of the temptation to sexual immorality, each man should have his own wife and each woman her own husband.”

In this verse, the apostle Paul describes any activity outside of marriage as “sexual immorality.” That means when we read of “sexual immorality,” it includes sex before marriage as one of many examples of sin.

If you have done it, repent for God is more than willing to forgive you.

○John 8:11 (Jesus forgiving an aduletress)
○“Neither do I condemn you; go, and from now on sin no more.”

Sin no more is the verse in focus here as is explained in...

○ Hebrews 10:26F
○ or if we go on sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins...
