Don't assume that the interpretations you find in the Bible Studies you use are correct. The texts prohibits "sexual immorality." I suggest you read my post again from a fresh perspective. You completely missed what it says.

Acts 15:20 CLEARLY says to abstain from 'FORNICATION'
G4202
πορνεία
porneia
por-ni'-ah
From G4203; harlotry (including adultery and incest); figuratively idolatry: -
fornication
You have taken that verse completely out of context. Any Greek grammarian or someone who posseses a modicum of biblical knowledge can tell you that fornication in Acts 15:20 means FORNICATION. Unless you somehow believe that 99.99% of all biblical theologians are incorrect and you are somehow right, frankly I would find that quite arrogant. What you are basically trying to tell me is that within the passages of Acts 15:20; Rom. 1:29; 1 Cor. 5:1; 6:13,18; 7:2; 10:8; 2 Cor. 12:21; Gal. 5:19; Eph. 5:3; Col. 3:5; 1 Thess. 4:3; Jude 7, there is not ONE mention of FORNICATION. In other words the Greek scholars who translated the bible obviously don't know how to translate Greek. Sorry, it is you who completely missed what it says.
