Not seeing an icon indicating of what faith you are, I'm not sure you're going to like any of the answers that appear in response to your question. Let me be the first among those -- or the second, 'cuz I'm guessing if you read iLogos' post, you didn't like it either.

No. You shouldn't. Have sex. With your girlfriend. Or anyone. Until you're married.

No.

If you do, you are saying: it is OK to have sex with any woman. That is a high risk on your earthly life and is deadly on your eternal life.

It is fine.
On what "biblical principle" do you base that answer, please? Or is it that you figured he's waiting for one person to give him permission to do what he's going to do anyway, so you accomodated him early? :cool:

It seems to me that the relevant scripture is in Genesis, Chapter 38:16-17.
Not realizing that she was his daughter-in-law, he went over to her by the roadside and said, “Come now, let me sleep with you.”
“And what will you give me to sleep with you?” she asked. “I’ll send you a young goat from my flock,” he said.
You can sleep with your girlfriend if you promise to give her a goat.

The thing is if you do not know Christ and have a relationship with our Heavenly Father then it probably makes no difference. It is only those that call Jesus as Lord that are saved anyway.

If on the other hand Jesus is your Lord and you are born again into a relationship with God; rather than abusing the gift of grace, if you are truly born again you would not want to be deliberately fall into sin as you would under stand how it offends God.

What I am getting at is it is wrong to sin but the most important thing is restoration with God. His Holy Spirit and his Word then can enlighten you about the rest.

And What scripture said it's wrong because Greek and Hebrew things Did not mention it
Ah, so you are looking for permission, because the Greek and the Hebrew both make it pretty clear, sex is for marriage and marriage only. Between a man and a woman to boot.

Did someone miss a period?

Yup.

Well My Religion I'm Multi-Religious
And What scripture said it's wrong because Greek and Hebrew things Did not mention it
and Having sex with any woman you definitely understood me wrong

Not many periods in there. None, actually. Random capital letters are also strewn about the sentence.

Son, are you old enough to know what sex is?

Does that apply to the rest of us? I can probably pick up a couple goats at the county fair. ;)
