from what i've heard, you won't go to heaven if you have sex before marriage. my friend and her boyfriend are really close, and she has told me she might have sex with him. they are sixteen, and i'm not sure what to tell her. she also asked me this: "if i have sex with him, will i go to hell?"
so i guess my question is, will she go to hell, and how do i stop her?!
With all do respect ( and please forgive my English) I think that we all miss something very important here.
We forgett that if I have sex with someone , I am one flesh with that person , in other words , married to that person and that's how God sees me.
If i amy say , dear unknown624,you could ask your friend that you care so much about, if she would like to be considered married before God, if your friend cares about God, because if she does not then probably you are just losing your time.But to those who really care about God , having sex with a person is equal to be married to that person.It's as simple as that!
Because it's simply not what those verses mean. Read them in context.
Plus, God's grace is sufficient for me. Jesus' sacrifice was "good enough" to abolish eternal death for believers and to restore them to God's favor.
Then explain them to me by what other scripture says about the subject of death. This is the only way to prove the certainty of meaning of any scripture not by opinion or statement.

It's not my opinion. What do you want to know about death? Ask specific questions, and I will give you Biblical answers.

Dear Patriarch! I think you are focussing on the tree here than on the forest.
There are verces in the book of Ecclesiastes that you cannot isolate the way you do from the rest of the book because they can really mislead you.
The whole message of the book is coverd in chapter 12 ver. 13,14... 13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
14 For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.
In other words i cannot say who's going to hell and who's not that's God's job , because there are many secret things , good and evil.
Do not judge by the phenomenon that can mislead even the strongest , but judge in Christ who can save even the weakest!
There is NOTHING in the scripture that says that you will to Hell if you have sex before marriage! That is simply not true and there would be hardly anyone there if that were the case. You go to hell by denying Jesus Christ as your savior....nothing else will send you there.
Having said that, there is plenty in the scripture that says that sex outside of marriage is a sin. It is a sin because it isn't good for us. It can cause disease and relationship issues, and can even mess with our emotions in a very negative way. But even more importantly i believe the Bible teaches it is a sacred and spirtual act that is meant for husband and wife. It is beautiful and God isn't trying to keep something from you, He is trying to give something special to you...if you will heed his Word. That is my two cents.
God condemns all those who have committed sexual sins.
1 Corinthians 6:9-10 9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, 10Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
This would even include lust.
Matthew 5:27-30 27Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: 28But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. 29And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. 30And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
All of us have broken God’s commandments, and we need a Savior. But there here is some good news. God promises to save any sinner who repents of their sins, and places their trust in Jesus Christ alone as their Lord and Savior.
1 John 1:7-10 7But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
8If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
If your friend places her trust in the Lord, she will not go to hell.
John 6:47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.
If she rejects Christ, she will be thrown into the lake of fire, whether she commits fornication or not.
John 3:36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.

Please use scriptures that back up your rebuttal of my statements. This will prove that your assertions are not merely your opinion. Also, take note that since the Bible is in total harmony, the scriptural explanations you use should be in harmony with all other scriptures on any particular subject. If the scripture(s) you use are contradictory with other scriptures then the explanation of such will be inaccurate.
