If anyone wants proof that there is a God and there is a Devil they need only take a peek and read the comments posted when God or the bible is the topic. Those who don't believe will name call and belittle, fruits of the Devil who opposes God. Those who do believe are kind and try to help, fruits of the Holy Spirit. Just like the scriptures teach it will be. Unbelievers and how they treat believers are living proof that the bible is true.

What has your answer got to do with sex outside of marriage as far as the bible is concerned. King David had bit on the side with a married woman.
That it is wrong.

Look in the book of Kings and read about you beaut King David up on the roof seeing a doll having a bath and whacko I am king and "had her brought to him" He then sent her husband "to the fore front of battle" hoping he would be killed. Lovely book.
Not my answer but the bibles answer
This is only one writer Paul and he never pulled any punches.
Here he is addressing members of the Bride class who's hope is to become join heirs and rulers of Gods Kingdom.
(1 Corinthians 6:15-20) 15 Do YOU not know that YOUR bodies are members of Christ? Shall I, then, take the members of the Christ away and make them members of a harlot? Never may that happen! 16 What! Do YOU not know that he who is joined to a harlot is one body? For, “The two,” says he, “will be one flesh.” 17 But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit. 18 Flee from fornication. Every other sin that a man may commit is outside his body, but he that practices fornication is sinning against his own body. 19 What! Do YOU not know that the body of YOU people is [the] temple of the holy spirit within YOU, which YOU have from God? Also, YOU do not belong to yourselves, 20 for YOU were bought with a price. By all means, glorify God in the body of YOU people.

The Bible says," If you cannot contain yourself from that person your should get married.I wish I could give the Scripture where I read it.

"It is better to marry than to burn" I don't know the Book and chapter either. Just remember the words.
It doesn't actually say anything on that topic directly. I think you know the answer to that one. Common sense would tell you that a sexual relationship comes with many twists and therfore if you do not have a committment in mind, you are asking for a lot of turmoil. Promiscuity is mentioned in the bible in a couple of places though, with references to harlets etc. Not exactly the same as "premarital sex".

The Bible is mute on the subject of premarital sex for unmarried adults. The only prohibition for the Jews was not to commit adultery, which covered two areas. One was sex between two married persons. The other was adultery as fornication, which was sex between a married person and a single person.

The human race leans towards it's own answers & rejects God's word
...just like the laws of the world which have been changing towards
what man thinks VS what GOd thinks
..our laws originally came from the bible ...
progressively the world has become so terribly corrupt...
this applies to this very question...
man says fornication is ok VS GOd says not
...EVER think Y GOd says this ?
We r NOT meant 2 have multiple sexual partners because it is
so corrupting to our SOULS...if we all had had one partner
who committed & took LOVE as sacred...life would be so much easier
& fulfilling. This generation doesn't even know what LOVE is...

I believe that all religions agree on the prohibition of adultery, and that the protect of the society and family.

adultery but what about people who are not married but in love, who dont want to get married or arnt ready to get married yet
i have 2 agree with asthma that this started way before any religion originated.. but then all those prophets came to bring all sins to an end... including adultery (sex without marriage) , drinking alcohol, gambling, bribery and so many uncountable sins the society was involved at the time all the Holy Books were written by these prophets... i believe in Arab countries those who have committed adultery are supposed to be whipped 100 times before he could lead a normal life again ;) so it is definitely not going to be left unpunished , if its not punished here then hereafter....

I thought Jesus at one stage turned water to wine, yet you say alcohol was one of the things Jesus came to stop. One rule for him and another for us mere mortals. On the gambling side all believers are gambling on there being a place called heaven.Bribery as I understand is to offer something so as to receive something in return. "Believe in me and you will be saved" Sounds like bribery to me.
Who cares there is no such thing as GOD you ignorant moron.
