With premarital sex on the rise and it being so accepted even among Christians I thought it might be interesting to know Salem Web Network's stance on the issue.

Hey there Speaking!
Thank you so much for taking the time to ask your question.
It is staggering to learn that so many teens are engaging in this sort of activity.
Our understanding of God's Word indicates that people who engage in sexual activity with someone whom they are not married are engaging in a sexual sin.
The good news is that God offers forgiveness for our sins. The Bible says in 1 John 1:9, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness."
There is hope for people who engage in this activity. They need to stop and then turn to the Lord and confess their sin.
What a wonderful God we serve!

Hey Speaking!
Our chat and forums are offered as a place for people to come and interact and discuss topics that are relevant to them.
Over the years there have been plenty of discussions on the topic of sexual immorality and for the most part we allow people to discuss these topics as long as they do so while abiding by our Terms of Service.
With that said, however, we do not allow people to use our community as a "bully pulpit." Members who engage in forceful and sustained promotion of sinful activities are in violation of our Terms of Service and we reserve the right to edit their posts, restrict their activity, or ban their accounts.
Our community just is not the ideal platform for the purpose of forcefully advocating what we consider to be sinful activities.
