A form of adultery?

Some sins are done in an "obvious" way, but others are more "masked", so as they might be "borderline". We know about adultery. But there's some other worldly thing happening that's "acceptable" to unsaved people. I'm sure you've heard the term "friends with benefits". Means, simply, that a man and woman can "know each other well enough" so that they can "take liberties" with each other {and brazenly, without even trying to hide it}, but they "rationalize it away" by saying that it's not really a full-fledged affair, only when they see each other at work. And so, when I used to go inside offices, I would see maybe a woman sitting on the man's lap, or the man doing something, and I would happen to know for a fact that they were both married. And sometimes it becomes a habit, where in becomes like "a thing" between them. Now, the Bible says, abstain from the APPEARANCE of evil, and "anyone who has lust for a woman {or vice versa} in their heart, it's like adultery already. So is this friends with benefits sin, despite them "rationalizing it away?" I would say so. You?

Any one who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. Matthew 5: 28

It is adultery. And if we do not say it is a sin, it becomes our sin. All you have to do is look or think about a woman with lust when you are married and it is adultery. There is no such thing as friends with benefits. If the two are unmarried it is called fornication. BUT IF EVEN 1 IS MARRIED= ADULTERY. The Father hates adultery. It doesn't matter what man wants to call it. It is still 1 and the same.
 
Love the Lord with all your heart, mind and soul and satan will flee from your when you start singing praises to Jesus for who He is and what He can do for you. Saving you from adultery and fornication is one of them.
Amen. Some people don't realize that adultery and fornication is a sin according to the Word.
