How far should Christians go physically before marriage?

[Gabe7]

Is there a commonly accepted answer among Christians to this question?

 

[Lord Herdsetk]

You're asking Christians man, we hardly agree on anything.

The best answer involves looking at it like a dangerous cliff.

Do you keep inching towards the cliff, seeing how far you can go before it becomes too dangerous

OR

Stay away from the cliff entirely?

Hands, lips, other body parts should be kept off of any place covered by underwear, until you're married.


And I think you get the general sense of what I'm gettin at. No need for any absurd hypothetical like.."Well what if they go commando?"

I loathe this question....

Just poke them with a stick. Better to be safe than sorry.

Just poke them with a stick. Better to be safe than sorry.

Ideally a barge pole.
Got to keep them at a distance.

making out only!

I would say holding hands, hugging, and kissing. And even then use caution. One thing leads to another, leads to another. That is why I feel it is so essential that you and your partner are on the same page on this matter.
