Sex & Marriage: Christians Choosing Secular Over Scripture - raptureready.com

Excerpt from this article:

"Recent studies have shown that Christians are more willing to replace their scriptural beliefs with modern cultural trends, according to ChristianMingle and JDate. A poll titled 2014 State of Dating in America reveals that:

61%. of Christians said they would have sex before marriage
56% said that it's appropriate to move in with someone after dating for 6 months to 2 years

The results are clear than the majority of young Christians are OK with premarital sex and cohabitation."

The Bible says:

"Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of his sin, and that ye share not in her plague." - Revelation 18:4

"But I say unto you, that whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery. And he that marries her that is divorced committeth adultery." - Matthew 5:32

"No everyone that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that Day, Lord, Lord, Have we not prophesied in Thy name? and in thy name cast out devils? and in thy name done many wondrous works? And I will profess unto them, I never knew you. Depart ye that work iniquity." Matthew 7:21-23

"Ye have heard that it was said by them of old, Thou shalt not commit adultery. But I say unto you, that whosoever looketh upon a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart." -
