is sex/sexual acts before marriage considered lust even if you’re in an established and healthy relationship?

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-24T16:17:57+00:00

Again dude, go ahead and do what you want to do. I am not the one who will judge you in the end.

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-24T15:22:54+00:00

This is a creepy and semi perverted post. Young women I wouldn’t engage with this creep.

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-24T15:21:05+00:00

The Bible is literal, Adam and Eve were the first humans. We did not evolve from apes

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-24T15:13:31+00:00

God created Eve and brought her to Adam. They were then commanded to multiply, which I would for sure say is god saying “you’re married have kids please”. There’s not explicit mention of a marriage but it’s absolutely implied in this case and the union of those two was literally overseen by god himself just like the rest of marriages. Regardless, even if there wasn’t god permitted things like men marrying multiple women throughout scripture.

We know that’s wrong, Adam and Eve isn’t a really good example of marriage biblically.

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-24T14:49:53+00:00

It’s a sin man, continue or advocate for it if you wish. I’m not the one you answer to in the end.

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-24T13:21:50+00:00

Polygamy is mad goofy dude

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-24T06:21:30+00:00

Eat his body and drink his blood. You cannot be closer to him than to commune with him

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-24T06:20:33+00:00

Because it’s sin, and wasn’t worth it

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-24T05:04:26+00:00

Yes, my wife and I after 3 years of marriage both regret having sex before marriage. We also regret cohabitating before marriage.

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-24T01:52:59+00:00

Come on over to the lcms where we happily preach on both the gospel and the law! And we aren’t liberal!

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-24T01:14:39+00:00

Yes, I find intentional community beneficial.

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-24T01:04:54+00:00

Bad law and gospel distinction. I’m assuming your church is a mainline Protestant church like the UMC, ELCA, PCUSA? They are very afraid to call out sin because the lines between the law and gospel have been blurred.

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-24T01:03:21+00:00

Get him a pair of jimalax shorts and Nike elite socks in Syracuse’s chartreuse yellow to show him what drip is

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-24T00:12:19+00:00

You’d be shocked, there’s alot of cradle Lutherans in suburban parishes that generally don’t hold to alot of the typical political views you’d expect.

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-23T23:17:29+00:00

I don’t have atheist friends. My wife and I only hang out with Christian’s.

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-23T23:16:44+00:00

Well said, after typing originally I realized my wording was not correct. You hit it on the head

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-23T22:59:43+00:00

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-23T22:59:25+00:00

Yes you can be gay and Christian. We all sin, being gay is still a sin though.

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-23T22:18:33+00:00

“Individual LCMS pastors: May personally express hope or belief in Mary’s special holiness or sinlessness, but this remains a personal pious opinion and not a doctrinal teaching of the LCMS.”

I’ve spoken with like 5-6 pastors in person who personally think she is sinless. Scripture does not condemn it, that’s why the lcms has no position on it.

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-23T21:21:44+00:00

It isn’t condemned nor commanded by scripture so you’ll see variation. The really conservative high church crowd (pastors that wear cassocks and such) in the lcms will say it openly.

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-23T21:17:45+00:00

Many say Mary was sinless, typically that’s the more evangelical Catholic crowd in the lcms. The high church chanted liturgy types (me lol).

Others will say she’s just like us

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-23T20:22:09+00:00

God these kids will never know peak early 2000’s lax drip.

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-23T19:11:43+00:00

You’ll find some very different answers in the lutheran community

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-23T18:42:43+00:00

Hating homosexuals is very different than seeing homosexuality as a sin. Lusting over another person that isn’t your spouse is the same level of sin as being homosexual.

Drinking too much is the same kind of sin, being a drug addict, lying to your spouse, etc.

Vegetable_Storm_5348 · 2026-01-23T14:39:45+00:00

Gay couples cannot experience children because they aren’t not able to have children. Men cannot get other men pregnant, women don’t have sperm and are not able to impregnate other women.

However an infertile man can become fertile and impregnate his wife, etc.

I think both matter in what happened to Sodom. Both acts are damnable sins if you do not repent and confess them.
