Bible verses about cheating
Whether it’s cheating in marriage with your wife or husband or being unfaithful with your girlfriend or boyfriend cheating is always a sin. Scripture has a lot to say about cheating and its sinful nature. Many people say well God doesn’t care since we are not married, which is false.
Even if it’s not cheating on your spouse cheating has to do with deception and God hates deception. You are basically living a lie creating one lie after the other.
We always hear about celebrities and people of the world who cheat on their partner.
Christians are not to seek worldly things. God is serious about adultery. If someone cheats when they’re not married what’s to stop them from cheating when they are. How is it showing love to others? How is it being like Christ? Stay away from the schemes of Satan. If we died in sin through Christ how can we still live in it? Christ has changed your life don’t go back to your old way of living.
