So wouldn’t you think that abstaining from any kind of intimacy with a person you are not married to would stop you from wanting to “go further”, which could result in both having sex outside of marriage?
Or should sex outside of marriage be OK?
(Not looking to debate but see a range of different opinions including what the Bible says). 😊

Sex outside of marriage in God eyes is sexual immorality. Why do I say this, because God is the external moral Arbiter. If God is the standard of what is good than any deviation from that is what is evil. Evil is not a thing. If God said sex is between a married man and women, He is stating what is good because He is God and we are the creation. That’s about the best I can explain with regards to that.

Of course premarital sex is forbidden in Scripture. But I can't think of anywhere in Scripture that forbids kissing though.
I personally want to wait for my wedding day. Marriage is a shadow of Christ's love for His church. And I want my future wedding day (Lord willing if there is one) to be extra special. Waiting is a personal preference for me.

That and Only Time Will Tell
I think its fine to holy kiss people.
It is a blessing. Its not really a thing in my family to kiss, but I went to a church where lots of people kisses cos it had many islanders in the congregation and that is their thing to kiss and hug. They kiss on the cheeks.
both men and women and also I notice children, but children are more likely to hug.
I think kissing on the lips is meant to be reserved for your true love. Christians have been kissed on the lips or actually on our tongues by the holy spirit. He has breathed in us.
That is why I wouldnt be kissed on the lips by an unbeliever, sorry no, also, it can be a way to spread germs. I dont want anyones unholy breath either.

I looked it up. Apparently it changed about 1960 or so. For centuries, and right up until the 1950's, "making love" was a synonym for courting. (This explains Pepe Le Pew's lines, and Pierre's lines in a Popeye cartoon. "When Pierre is making love, he does not wish to be disturbed!" They weren't talking about sex.)
