Here we go again with another statement that is contrary to the Bible. Despite the fact that the Bible defines sex outside of marriage as “Fornication” and “Sin”, Rev. Bromleigh McCleneghan, a married mother of three and associate pastor for ministry with families at Union Church of Hinsdale in Illinois, says single Christians can have sex as long as it’s “mutually pleasurable and affirming.” Isn’t this the going trend nowadays? I mean lets just do whatever feels right or is socially acceptable regardless of the what the Word of God says.
When one examines 1 Corinthians 6:18-20, many Mainline Protestant and evangelical churches like the Assemblies of God Church, advise against sexual relations among single Christians. “Today within our society singles exist for one of two reasons — by choice, or by circumstance. In either case the Bible’s mandate is clear for all unmarried individuals: they are to remain sexually pure (1 Corinthians 6:18-20),” the Assemblies of God church warned. FULL STORY
Do this go for the Priest or out Pastors to, please give me a break, I stayed true to my Ex. and we did not had sex for over 10years, but he slept with the nastiest Slates in Town, didn’t get me anything. You can have sex, don’t drink, don’t eat. No way I believe God won’t us to be with out.
Nice pleasant-looking lady with a healthy smile. Needs to come to California, bleach her hair and get a tan. That way she’d disappear in the crowd of free-fornicators out here. God bless America, currently on the Road to recover ‘Greatness Again’…if we can only keep our virtue, values, spiritual, moral and political (Aristotelian Nicomachean) ethics. Christ saw we had wandered far from this and other teachings of ancients within and without his forebears as only God can perceive. Truth or consequences?
Well. First of all that’s dead wrong. Secondly, how does anyone expect her to be able to say anything right, when she doesn’t understand a woman isn’t suppose to preach?
Amen!! out of G_Ds order from get-go
In the end, the bad will be good, and the good, bad. What better example? What`s very tuff to digest is the fact it comes from a pastor who didnt just say it…she wrote a whole darn book about it.
It is reasonable.
I want to know what bible are people reading. oH the one that satan wrote and endorses. and If they are reading the same one that I have they most not be reading it with the help of the Holy Spirit. wOw That is why in the parable of the 19 virgin HALF DID NOT GO INTO THE WEDDING.
How is “mutually pleasurable and affirming” any different than the rest of the world? If it’s not “mutual”, it’s rape, even in the secular world. This woman is trying to be both a Christian and be in the world. Christ said to come out of the world and follow Him. Choose one way or the other; Christ demands it.
the only reason she is saying its ok so she can get followers shes sick she is teaching wrong do not listen to her she needs to pray and seek jesus
She is going to have a lot to answer for, leading people astray with things like this. It is DIRECTLY in opposition to what the Bible says.
There is no Hebrew or Greek word used in the Bible that precisely refers to sex before marriage. The Bible undeniably condemns adultery and sexual immorality, but is sex before marriage considered sexually immoral? According to 1 Corinthians 7:2, “yes” is the clear answer: “But since there is so much immorality, each man should have his own wife, and each woman her own husband.” In this verse, Paul states that marriage is the “cure” for sexual immorality. First Corinthians 7:2 is essentially saying that, because people cannot control themselves and so many are having immoral sex outside of marriage, people should get married. Then they can fulfill their passions in a moral way.
Since 1 Corinthians 7:2 clearly includes sex before marriage in the definition of sexual immorality, all of the Bible verses that condemn sexual immorality as being sinful also condemn sex before marriage as sinful. Sex before marriage is included in the biblical definition of sexual immorality. There are numerous Scriptures that declare sex before marriage to be a sin (Acts 15:20; 1 Corinthians 5:1; 6:13, 18; 10:8; 2 Corinthians 12:21; Galatians 5:19; Ephesians 5:3; Colossians 3:5; 1 Thessalonians 4:3; Jude 7). The Bible promotes complete abstinence before marriage. Sex between a husband and his wife is the only form of sexual relations of which God approves (Hebrews 13:4).
Far too often we focus on the “recreation” aspect of sex without recognizing that there is another aspect—procreation. Sex within marriage is pleasurable, and God designed it that way. God wants men and women to enjoy sexual activity within the confines of marriage. Song of Solomon and several other Bible passages (such as Proverbs 5:19) clearly describe the pleasure of sex. However, the couple must understand that God’s intent for sex includes producing children. Thus, for a couple to engage in sex before marriage is doubly wrong—they are enjoying pleasures not intended for them, and they are taking a chance of creating a human life outside of the family structure God intended for every child.
While practicality does not determine right from wrong, if the Bible’s message on sex before marriage were obeyed, there would be far fewer sexually transmitted diseases, far fewer abortions, far fewer unwed mothers and unwanted pregnancies, and far fewer children growing up without both parents in their lives. Abstinence is God’s only policy when it comes to sex before marriage. Abstinence saves lives, protects babies, gives sexual relations the proper value, and, most importantly, honors God.
Against the law of God! OMG!
Forgive them Lord for they not know what they are saying! God bless people of the world!
Jude 18-19New International Version (NIV)
18 They said to you, “In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires.” 19 These are the people who divide you, who follow mere natural instincts and do not have the Spirit.
he purpose of is Islam is one and simple
” save yourself and as many people as possible from eternal hell after death ” by following Islamic code of conduct in all aspects of life .
in Islam a man with sins is not equal to a man with believe in one Almighty God + good deeds
Muslims believe in all messengers from Almighty God ( Allah in Arabic ) from Adam .., Noah … Abraham …moses …Jesus….to Muhammad ( pbuam) and their holy books from Allah
overtime some nations got punished and perished from earth like Noah flood or pharaohs etc and some changed their books according to their selfish needs + benefits like Jews , Christian
only Qur’an and basic beliefs of Islam are unchanged ,
Jews do not believe in Jesus ( a.s) and theoretically crucified / killed Jesus ( a.s) greedy have founded Israel to wait for their Messiah which is Antichrist and Muslims will fight Jew Antichrist and his followers and will slaughter them under the leadership of Jesus ( a.s) and imam mahdi ( a. s) before judgement day
nowadays in Christiane its all you can eat ( do) bouffe type ideology , do , eat , drink , wear , fuck ( be gay , lesbians , swingers etc )
just give sins to Jesus (a.s) who came to earth not to tell / preach orders from your creator to show your willingness / thankfulness by living this life as god s” well but rather to get sacrificed for yours sins
why do you think ,your imagined unlimited god needed to sacrifice his son to forgive your sins , why not forgive it anyway after all he is limitless ?
The Bible tell singles if they burn with lust – get married! How can they get it’s ok for singles to have sex from this? Typical of people who are following the god of their imagination instead of the God of the Bible
This demonic woman is NOT a true Christian. This is totally opposed to the Word of God.
Female pastors almost always will pervert the truth. Biblically women are not supposed to preach! This woman in the article is not a pastor as she can call herself one but she isn’t a pastor! She is a pervert as she perverts peoples minds with lies. If it isn’t straight from the bible it is a lie, let no man (person) deceive you!
Fornication is still a sin; PERIOD!
Well according to the bible you can also have sex with slaves, concubines, you can take virgins from towns you conquer.. Your deceased brother’s widow is up for grabs.. Options galore!
SMH – Bible contradicts itself constantly, it’s all BS.
You should probably actually read the Bible before you claim to know what it “says”! Just sayin’.
If this is your teaching for single christians can go for sex as long as its pleasurable, show to the world what Bible verse did you extract this teachings as a pastor, you teach the Word of God (Jesus Christ).
I suppose her book is selling well? I hope not!
Many churches,church leaders and members of churches today do not know the scriptures, do not serk out and study scripture and have mo idea or desire to obey God’s will. NO it is better for many to do what pleased their flesh and emotions than heed the word. This women needs to repent and be greatly chastised for her wrong wrong teaching that goes against the scripture. False teacher spewing forth deceptive and false doctrine.
It’s also against the bible for women to be pastors.
Women aren’t even authorised to speak in church, so of course we shouldn’t trust what they teach.
Jesus said at end times strange doctrines will come and many will loose their first love…
This is not of God. The devil n her are a liar for fame, money and to gain lost followers.
Lying cult
if you are a Christian you are to follow Christ, to follow the Word. we are to be ‘set apart’ from the world, NOT living as the world! if you are choosing to live in sin then you are not following Christ! for those that know the word of God, it is written that fornicators, adulterers do not inherit the kingdom of God!
Responding to the comment about sleeping with slaves, concubines etc…back then it was a sin as well. People mentioned in the bible also sinned…The snake that deceived Adam and Eve has become a dragon through decades and decades. It’s been feeding off from all of societies’ sin to the point where now sin doesn’t look so bad. For instance..having sex with same sex. Who in this nasty world said that’s normal? Get it right people!!!
Well, first of all, Biblically, she can’t possibly be a pastor. Titus 1:5-9, 1 Tim. 3:1-7, 1 Peter 5:1-4.
Therefore, nothing she says matters. Listen to what real, Bible-believing Christian pastors have to say on the subject. Don’t listen to this blathering fool.
This woman needs to read the Bible and quit calling what God says us sin, o.k. She is a false teacher and any who follow her advice is being disobedient to Gods Word. 11John 1:10 says, “Ifanyone comes to teach you, and doesn’t believe what Christ taught, don’t even invite them into your house. Don’t encourage him or her in any way. If you do you will be a partner with them in their wickedness.” James 1: 13-15. “God tempts no-one, each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desires. Then desire, when it is conceived, gives birth to sin, and sin when it is full grown brings forth death.”

Typical position for a (I am gagging as I type this)female “Pastor”, from a “church” with “UNI” in the title. I would expect no less!
This lady who is claiming to be a pastor is a wolf in sheep’s clothing and a false teacher. She is flat out wrong! Its time to look for another church if she is pastoring your church.
Act 20:28 Pay careful attention to yourselves and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to care for the church of God, which he obtained with his own blood.
Act 20:29 I know that after my departure fierce wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock; and from among your own selves will arise men speaking twisted things, to draw away the disciples after them.
“Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication” Rev 2:20 She probably pushes abortion as well.
Don’t be deceived, God is not mocked, for whatsoever a man sows that he shall reap. Galatians 6:12. Having sex outside marriage is a sin, you cannot modifies sin in any way. So stop confusing the baby Christian please. Be warned!!!
