Why many people here use word girlfriend/boyfriend? We must live according to bible. Where in bible is used word girlfriend/boyfriend? Is this not fornication? Fornication means to have sexual activity without being married to the human. Kiss is fornication too, because it is sexual activity. What do you think?
You first mention that we must live according to the Bible. That is good. However, one must understand & know what the Bible teaches correctly, if we are to teach it to others as you are doing. Your definition of fornication is not what the Bible calls fornication. You describe kissing as fornication. Is the kiss of a mother to her child fornication? Of course not.
Scripture says we are to greet one another as Christians with a holy kiss.
I Thess 5:26 Greet all God's people (the brethren) with a holy kiss.
Romans 16:16 Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the churches of Christ send you greetings.
I Cor 16:21 All the brethren greet you. Greet ye one another with an holy kiss.
2 Cor 13:11-13 Finally, brothers, rejoice! Aim for perfect harmony, encourage one another, be of one mind, live in peace. And the God of love & peace will be with you. Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the saints send you greetings.
I Peter 5:14 Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace to you all who are in Christ Jesus. Amen.
One can 'touch' someone that can cause passion to flame up. This is called 'defrauding' or 'overreaching' as opposed to actual sexual intercourse or thoughts committing fornication in the mind.
But there is a way that is wonderful between what we call a boyfriend or girlfriend or friends between a man & a woman. The key is on FRIEND. Scripture describes this as follows:
Proverbs 30:18-20 There are three things TOO WONDERFUL for me, four that I cannot understand: the way an eagle flies in the sky, the way of a serpent on a rock, the way of a ship on the high seas AND the way of a man with a young woman (maiden).
I Tim 5:1-3 Never speak harshly to an older man, but appeal to him respectfully as you would to your own father. Talk to younger men as you would to your own brothers. Treat older women as you would your mother & treat younger women with all purity as you would your own sisters.
2 Thessalonians 4:3-8 For it is God’s will that you should be holy: You must abstain from fornication; each of you must know how to control his own body in holiness & honor, not in lustful passion like the Gentiles who do not know God; not to go beyond & to defraud (overreach) his brother in the matter, because
the Lord
is avenging concerning all these things, just as also we told you before & thoroughly warned. For God has not called us to impurity, but to holiness.
Hebrews 13:4 Marriage should be honored by all & the marriage bed kept undefiled, for God will judge fornicators & adulterers.
I hope these verses are helpful to you in rightly discerning & dividing the word of truth. Our desires should be pure & want people, both male & female to grow in the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ & grow in maturity in the Lord, becoming more & more like Jesus.
