I am aware that I asked this question twice but some of the answers I received were not on the dot.
Adultery should be taken out of this question for we all know it is sin to commit adultery.
But the meaning of the word "fornication" is "sexual immorality", harlotry, prostitution and idolatory. These are the biblical meanings of fornication and ,it seems, these meanings do not seem to suggest that having sex with your fiance' is sin:
Something to be remembered: Joseph was called "Mary's husband" while they were engaged...Could it be that in God's eyes, people who are engaged such that the parents know and the church know, are married?Only, they have made a ceremony?
I can understand if people say having sex with people that you are not engaged to is "sexual immorality"!
Please show me.
Well, to say that having sex with many women you are not engaged to is SIN, is quite acceptable, BUT does the bible literally say "we should not have sex with our fiance's"?
