The anonymous answer questions how far is too far. The scriptures are quite plain. Sexual intercourse outside of marriage is too far. Hugging, kissing, holding, are acceptable and not a sin. But each of these is a on a road to sexual relations. That is the way God intended. Sex is reserved for married people. Yes, we get forgiveness for sins, but the Bible says we must "not use the grace of God as an excuse for loose conduct." In otherwords, don't plan on sin with the idea of asking for forgiveness later. If we sin willfully, there is the danger of becoming calloused and at one point not asking for forgiveness. Then we are lost. If we go the opposite direction of serving God, we may never get off that path to destruction. Yes, we all sin daily. Unintentional sins based on imperfection. Serious, gross sins center on the laws set out in the 10 Commandments, which were fulfilled in Jesus. Those laws still stand and are very clear, no grey area. Murder, stealing, adultery, God's Law. There are no loopholes. God's laws are clear. Religious leaders today rarely discuss immorality, for fear they will condemn their congregations. No news is good news for them. Too bad for them. We must not water down the written Word of God. Yes, we can cease to be Christian. The Apostle Paul, who wrote much of the New Testament as letters to congregations, hoped that he himself would not somehow lose God's approval after all of his service and obedience to his heavenly Father. Who will be saved? Matthew 24:13 says "he that endures to the end is the one who will be saved." Meaning, those who do not endure will not be saved. Let's all wake up people, Christianity involves our very lives. We are in charge of our personal health. We are also in charge of our personal spirituality.
