Is touching a sin?

[Anonymous]

Is it a sin for me and my boyfriend to touch as long as we aren’t having intercourse? When I mean touching I mean like me touching his chest and if he touched my boobs. So yeah is it a sin in the Christian religion to touch as long is there is absolutely no sex before marriage?

[Jessica405]

It is only a sin if YOU alone believe it is. If you believe it is, then you are being controlled by other people. Marriage is not needed, so even sex before marriage is not a sin if you don't believe it is.

However, best wait until you are of the right age before sex.

but the question specified "in religion".

Know No touching if the temptations is there to do more than touch each other.
But if one can control what , how, an where
You mingle like that then I don't think SIN
Would be a factor in this case.
When the feeling is there it's sometimes very hard to resist Temptations weather you are mingling or not 🚫.
To wait is a given gift to gain more over your up coming life for the future to form better decisions unlike these little ones like mingling.

Yes and no. A sin is separation from God. So if your desire to touch his chest separates you from wanting to worship God in that moment then yes it’s technically a sin. However based on that biblical understanding kissing before marriage is also a sin.


Do you worry about it or feel bad doing that with him?

Yes. According To The Bible When Not Married... xxoo

not a sin but still forbidden to start because can lead to temptation. consider "you may "now" kiss the bride," after wedding.

like a sign "warning mines" you don't pass beyond the sign, but if you did pass, maybe you didn't step on a mine bomb.

As per Jesus Himself, lust itself is a sin. Logically, then, you'd be better off actually having sex, since that relieves what mere touching inflames.

[BCRanger10]

Yes, because you are exposing yourself to what is called an occasion of sin.

God sees everything and you're wrong if you're thinking he didn't see your hand inside his pants.

[Berethor]

Looks like you trying to fool God, as if boobs touching is not sexual.

Sins are man-made.

Not saying that women didn't also create some myths about sin.
