What does it say about the unmarried
in God’s Holy Word?
--There have been a lot of conflicted
views toward this subject:
What does it say in the Bible about living with someone and
not being married?
To know the answer you must look what
is plainly written in God’s Holy Word. When a person is not married and they
live with their significant other it is considered ‘fornication’.
Definition of Fornication: Sexual intercourse between people who are not
married to each other.
God specifically states in the word
of those that commit this sin will not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Galatians 5:19-21
“Now the works of the flesh are
manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication,
uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20Idolatry,
witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21Envyings, murders,
drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I
have also told you in
time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.”
1 Corinthians 6:18
“Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth
is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own
body.”
**Paul was an apostle/man of God that spoke
upon God’s Holy Word to many all around. He placed God above all of his needs
and set Him as his first priority in his life. He knew that in order to give
God the glory he was to make sure to please God through doing the works of
spreading the gospel and leading a holy life for others to follow. He stayed a
single man didnt marry and stated that it worked for him to be totally devoted
into living a holy fulfilled life for Christ. He knew not everyone was able to
do the same and for those who had a hard time being single to avoid fornication
and burning (going to hell) you must be married. Of course the marriage would
have to be in the will of God and not just marrying anybody. This is why God
needs to be involved in your lives to make a successful marriage. **
1 Corinthians 7:2
“Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his
own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.”
1 Corinthians 7:8-9
“I say therefore to the unmarried and widows,
It is good for them if they abide even as I. 9But if they cannot
contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.”
** People are rejected marriage and considering that it is just a paper, but this so called paper is more than just paper. This states that God has formed two people together in marriage where no man can put asunder (Separate) God loves marriage and sees to it as a holy matrimony. **
1 Timothy 4:3
"Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth."
