NO, wipe off your mouth, and change your cloths, and if you believe that you sinned, 1 John 1:9 "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."

and don't do it again..... (smile).

Then it is for YOU... maybe... maybe not.

Who are you refusing to hug or kiss?

People used to greet each other this way.

It's not like you have a romantic interest. So I wouldn't worry about it if I were you...I would be more worried about having real connections with those around you. (Which you don't currently have)

@Holy999 Hugging and kissing are not sinful in themselves if done with a pure heart. But done with wrong or sinful motives, then yes definitely that would make them sinful.

Romans 16:16
Greet one another with a holy kiss.

1 Corinthians 16:20
All the brothers and sisters here send you greetings. Greet one another with a holy kiss.

2 Corinthians 13:12
Greet one another with a holy kiss.

1 Thessalonians 5:26
Greet all God’s people with a holy kiss.

1 Peter 5:14
Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace to all of you who are in Christ.

Well,.. because of Covid right now it might be,.. any other time I don't see why. Oh and @JohnDB, I mostly liked what you said but why do you assume that thesaintman, (or however you spelled his other username) I mean *ahem* @Holy999 doesn't have any connections?

Just based upon the multitude of his conversations on forums.
