“A Really Red Flag”

Categories: MARRIAGE, MEN & WOMEN, RELATIONSHIPS
My fiancée looks at porn, and I tell him that it's wrong in the Lord's eyes.  When I say that, he thinks I'm getting weird on him and says that it's not like he can ever meet these girls.  How can I tell him that it's still wrong?

Sincerely,
Appalled

Dear Appalled,

Your fiancée has a major problem with sexual sin.  God tells us to flee fornication (1 Cor 6:18) and that it is wrong for a man to lust after a woman (Matt 5:28).  His major sexual problem will very quickly become your major problem if you marry him while he still holds these views.  We cannot stress enough that you should think very carefully about marrying someone who will not cherish you as his one and only (Eph 5:33, 1 Cor 7:2).
