    Yes you can be guilty of fornication and still be 'Godly' or a Christian.

    No human is without sin.

    u mad?


    Matthew 9:1-8


    Jesus Heals a Paralytic

    9 And getting into a boat he crossed over and came to his own city. 2 And behold, some people brought to him a paralytic, lying on a bed. And when Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, “Take heart, my son; your sins are forgiven.” 3 And behold, some of the scribes said to themselves, “This man is blaspheming.” 4 But Jesus, knowing[a] their thoughts, said, “Why do you think evil in your hearts? 5 For which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Rise and walk’? 6 But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins”—he then said to the paralytic—“Rise, pick up your bed and go home.” 7 And he rose and went home. 8 When the crowds saw it, they were afraid, and they glorified ? , who had given such authority to men.

    Christianity is based on forgiveness and the acknowledgement that all people sin.

    Fornication is a sin just like more common sins such as stealing, lying, glutton, etc that can be forgiven.

    Is all sex between a married couple not considered sin?
    Threesomes, all that other freaky ? .
    Or is some of that sin?

    apparently if you repent and ask for forgiveness on your deathbed, all will be forgiven. So, live out your lives as fornicating murdering rapists that rob, steal, sell drugs and weigh 500lbs. You can still make it to heaven if you ask, with your dying breath, for forgiveness from Jesus.

    as long as its sincere.

    and it sounds like this type of attitude wouldn't result in a sincere confession and genuine belief in ? during the last moments.
