Is Sex Outside Marriage Okay In Modern Times?

What does the Bible really say about sex outside of marriage? In this powerful message, “Sex Outside Marriage,” discover God’s truth about purity, holiness, and the covenant of marriage. While the world normalizes sexual sin, God’s Word calls believers to a higher standard—one rooted in faith, obedience, and love. This sermon tackles a topic many avoid, yet it’s one that is vital for spiritual growth and the health of families, relationships, and society as a whole.Scripture makes it clear that sex before marriage (fornication) and sex outside marriage (adultery) are sins against God and against your own body. As 1 Corinthians 6:18 says, “Flee from sexual immorality… whoever sins sexually sins against their own body.” God designed sex as a beautiful gift within marriage—a sacred act that unites husband and wife as one flesh (Genesis 2:24). When that design is perverted, it leads to brokenness, guilt, and spiritual damage. Yet through repentance and faith in Jesus, there is forgiveness and restoration.This sermon explores powerful passages like Deuteronomy 22:13–28, 1 Corinthians 7:2, and Hebrews 13:4, showing how God’s plan for purity has never changed. Jesus Himself said that even looking with lust is sin (Matthew 5:28), reminding us that purity begins in the heart. You’ll also learn how to guard your thoughts, avoid temptation, and strengthen your walk with Christ through obedience and the power of the Holy Spirit.If you’ve fallen short in this area, know this truth: Jesus has already paid the price for your sins. When you repent, He forgives and restores. You don’t need to live in shame or condemnation.Turn back to God and “go and sin no more” (John 8:11). This message will challenge you to honor the marriage bed, live in sexual purity, and represent Christ faithfully in every part of your life.Referenced Verses: Deuteronomy 22:13-28Deuteronomy 22:21Deuteronomy 22:221 Corinthians 7:2Hebrews 13:41 Corinthians 6:18-Social Media Ministries, founded by Spencer Coffman, is committed to sharing the Word of God with the entire world.
