I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I. But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn. 1Cor.7:8-9

......But if any man think that he behaveth himself uncomely toward his virgin, if she pass the flower of her age, and need so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them marry. - 1Cor.7:36

1st Corinthians 7 is a complicated passage that seems to give tacit support to premarital sex

So it's only in Christianty that fornication is frowned on
This religion you speak about, is there a text from their authentic books permitting fornication?
Cos as far as I know, this religion takes the punishment of fornication or adultery very serious and has lead to the faith being condemned for their stern and stringent punishments.

In this religion, you aren't only asked not to fornicate but move far away from it. That is to say even acts that lead to fornication and adultery are prohibited.

I hope you leave this religion out of your discussion next time

Kill Women Who Are Not Virgins On Their Wedding Night

But if this charge is true (that she wasn’t a virgin on her wedding night), and evidence of the girls virginity is not found, they shall bring the girl to the entrance of her fathers house and there her townsman shall stone her to death, because she committed a crime against Israel by her unchasteness in her father’s house.  Thus shall you purge the evil from your midst. (Deuteronomy  22:20-21

C) if you've answered NO to question A or B, go back to church and get acquainted with your Bible, as you are ignorant about what's written in it.

D) if you've answered YES to question A and B, then you have passed the biblical intelligence test, and therefore here is your final question: why were these men NOT viewed as sinners (or punished) by god?

OP three questions for you:

1. Do you believe in the Bible?
2. What is fornication?
3. What did Jesus teach about fornication? Did he teach against it or did He encourage it?

Answer these and you have the answer you seek.

There is no Hebrew or Greek word used in the Bible that precisely refers to sex before marriage. The Bible undeniably condemns adultery and sexual immorality, but is sex before marriage considered sexually immoral? According to 1 Corinthians 7:2 , “yes” is the clear answer: “But since there is so much immorality, each man should have his own wife, and each woman her own husband.” In this verse, Paul states that marriage is the “cure” for sexual immorality. First Corinthians 7:2 is essentially saying that, because people cannot control themselves and so many are having immoral sex outside of marriage, people should get married. Then they can fulfill their passions in a moral way.
Since 1 Corinthians 7:2 clearly includes sex before marriage in the definition of sexual immorality, all of the Bible verses that condemn sexual immorality as being sinful also condemn sex before marriage as sinful. Sex before marriage is included in the biblical definition of sexual immorality. There are numerous Scriptures that declare sex before marriage to be a sin (Acts 15:20 ; 1 Corinthians 5:1 ; 6:13 , 18 ; 10:8 ; 2 Corinthians 12:21 ; Galatians 5:19 ;
Ephesians 5:3 ; Colossians 3:5 ; 1 Thessalonians 4:3 ; Jude 7). The Bible promotes complete abstinence before marriage. Sex between a husband and his wife is the only form of sexual relations of which God approves (Hebrews 13:4 ).
Far too often we focus on the “recreation” aspect of sex without recognizing that there is another aspect—procreation. Sex within marriage is pleasurable, and God designed it that way. God wants men and women to enjoy sexual activity within the confines of marriage. Song of Solomon and several other Bible passages (such as
Proverbs 5:19 ) clearly describe the pleasure of sex. However, the couple must understand that God’s intent for sex includes producing children. Thus, for a couple to engage in sex before marriage is doubly wrong—they are enjoying pleasures not intended for them, and they are taking a chance of creating a human life outside of the family structure God intended for every child.
While practicality does not determine right from wrong, if the Bible's message on sex before marriage were obeyed, there would be far fewer sexually transmitted diseases, far fewer abortions, far fewer unwed mothers and unwanted pregnancies, and far fewer children growing up without both parents in their lives. Abstinence is God’s only policy when it comes to sex before marriage. Abstinence saves lives, protects babies, gives sexual relations the proper value, and, most importantly, honors God.

MrBrownJay1:


Here is a clue: many great men of the bible had baby mamas, mistresses and concubines (which they were NOT married to), and they were not viewed as sinners by god (check Abraham, king David, King Solomon etc)...

So it is very simple: so long as the babe is NOT married to another man, it is NOT a sin.

A. Yes
B. Yes
C. It's yes and yes as you can see
D. They were viewed as sinners and were punished accordingly. You need to stop treating the Bible like multichoice objectives. You can't pick the ones that suit you.

Abraham's delay in child birth was a test. He couldn't wait and was encouraged by his wife to have an extramarital affair with his maid. He is the father of all nations and you and I are sharing in his punishment till today. Without Ishmael you won't have religious terrorism from the Middle East today.

David was expressly judged. The sword remained in his house. Absalom his son slept with all his wives on the roof top before the whole city and then overthrew his father David.

Solomon was chosen out of mercy to replace David. He satisfied himself with 1000 women and what was the outcome? The women introduced their gods into Israel leading to idolatry and he couldn't keep is really together. His kingdom was divided and Israel became a weak nation leading to its conquest by Babylon.

You can use your head knowledge and logic to justify whatever you want. It's your life but stop misleading people on this forum.

Go on fornication provided you can bear the consequences.

Check the whole of your Bible and tell me one man that committed fornication and was not punished at all.

Re: What Does The Bible Say About Sex Before Marriage? by Nobody: 1:03pm On May 07, 2017
Rather than prohibit sexual pleasure, the Bible shows that it is a gift from God to married people. He created humans “male and female” and viewed what he had made as being “very good.” (Genesis 1:27, 31) When he brought the first man and woman together in marriage, he said that “they must become one flesh.” (Genesis 2:24) This bond included the pleasure of sexual intimacy along with a close emotional connection.

The Bible describes the pleasure that husbands find in marriage with these words: “Rejoice with the wife of your youth . . . Let her own breasts intoxicate you at all times. With her love may you be in an ecstasy constantly.” (Proverbs 5:18, 19) God also intends for wives to enjoy sex. The Bible says: “Husbands and wives should satisfy each other’s sexual needs.”—1 Corinthians 7:3, God’s Word Bible.

Limits on sexual pleasure
God reserves sexual relations for marriage mates only, as Hebrews 13:4 shows: “Let marriage be honorable among all, and the marriage bed be without defilement, for God will judge fornicators and adulterers.” Married couples must be faithful and maintain their commitment to each other . They find the greatest delight, not by pursuing selfish gratification, but by applying the Bible principle: “There is more happiness in giving than there is in receiving.”—Acts 20:35.

Legal marriage...as defined by man... and marriage according to the Bible are not the same. We need to deal with them separately. Sex before marriage.... marriage as set out by man?...where one has to make it official?..sex before signing the document?... the most that can be is illegal... but not a sin. A sin is the transgression of Biblical laws/practices...not that of man's. According to the Bible... if a man can't contain himself he should go and find a wife. The one that he chooses to have sex with is his wife.... no sex before marriage involved. But if he chooses to sleep around... then that's fornication. If his wife chooses to sleep with another man... then that's adultery for the wife and ehmmm...lover boy. If the husband decides to have another wife.. two total... not sure if that's adultery ....according to the Bible.
