 Frytown, Iowa | Well maybe the parents desire is for them not to have sex out of marriage. That would be my goal as a parent. I also, like you failed at that with my wife.
To sum up the Bible in a nutshell it's the decision to accept or reject your sin. Everyone sins. And a lot of Christians commit adultry. But it's the acceptance or rejection of the sin that counts.
Pretty clear that a couple living together before marriage is accepting that sin of sex before marriage.
Living together is just as much a testament as a marriage that the two are having sex and accepting that it's ok.
If my kids have sex before marriage they will understand it's sin and I hope they attempt to refrain from it. I would still bless their marriage due to the fact they are attempting to build a family correctly but like Ben, if they are living together before, they are building their family incorrectly. They are starting with the acceptance of sin
I don't know if this is Bens thinking but these are my thoughts
Thanks for good discussion
