If marriage is a Christian and not a secular arrangement, then surely only Christians wed according to Christian standards or by Christian ceremony and in accordance with the practice of the Christian community can have marital sex.

If sex is a sin outside of marriage, and only allowed within, doesn't that mean that all non-Christians are having unmarried sex? Is that acceptable to Jehovah, by Christian standards? Is it possible for anyone but Christians to be married and have sex, in Jehovah's eyes?

Are you speaking from your godless opinions or from a Christian perspective?

Obviously other cultures and religions have marriage. That's irrelevant.

 Marriage is marriage no matter what religion. It may have been origanly Christians. But if someone has said their vows and lived up to them, then no it isn't un married sex.

of course sex within a non-Christian marriage would be considered sinful in the eyes of a Christian God, as He wouldn't accept that marriage as a religious rite.

You can be married without abiding to the Christian ceremony. You don't have to be Christian to live a fucking life. Marriage is a legal bonding. You can do it in a court.

I trust you chose the last option, Mr. Miss-the-fucking-point.

Obviously marriage is not exclusively Christian. We're talking about sin in a Christian context. Does Jehovah recognize non-Christian marriage or not? Why? Can you find scripture to support your position?

Well what hes saying is that marriage didnt derive from christianity, when in fact it dates all the way back to the greeks.

Lulz, guess not. But then again, all non-Christians are going to hell anyway for just that reason... so who cares anyway? Screw it all if we're already there. xD It's gonna be a partaaay!

Although actually, scratch that. They'd probably like for us to bring more non-Christian babies into the world. Then they'll have more people to convert.

No fucking kidding. Are we talking about the origins of marriage? Please explain what you think this post is about.

I'll save you the time. It's about sin, sex and marriage from a Christian perspective, not about marriage in general.

And what are you talking about, "dates back to the greeks?" You've got an incredibly limited perspective if you think the Greeks invented marriage.
