In these tragic days of pre-Christian promiscuity there may be a past of abortion, child abuse, rape and sexually transmitted disease. These events can obviously ***be the result of Christians backsliding***.

agree  Bill Greendyk: Para mí, la mejor "opción". Se trata de una reincidencia del pecado en la vida de un cristiano. Es muy distinto a la apostasía.

Reference: desconozco exactamente la relación

Reference information:
entre "pre-Christian promiscuity" y "Christians backsliding" pero podría ser que los eventos trágicos (avortos...) pueden ser ocasionados por dos categorías de personas -- las que todavía no han adoptado la vida cristiana (pre-Christian) y las que han sido cristianos pero luego dejaron de vivir esta vida correctamente (backsliding)...
