Is sleeping with the person you are engaged to okay for a Christian? No. It is not okay because this is fornication.1 Cor 6:9 says „Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the Kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind….” Paul then gave a warning in verse 18: “Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body”. The body is the temple of the Holy Ghost. Heb 13:4 says “Marriage is honourable in all and the bed undefiled; but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge”. We must therefore avoid fornication and adultery. If you have already engaged in this practice you must repent, ask God for forgiveness and desist from doing it again.

In this modern age of diseases that do not show on people’s faces, it is important not to jump into bed with your fiance/e. We also suggest and advisable that both of you go for blood tests before consummation so that you can make informed decision.
