The Bible talks about sexual immorality or in some places "fornication." This is sex out of wedlock; sex between husband and wife is ok:
1 Corinthians 6:18
Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a man commits are outside his body, but he who sins sexually sins against his own body.
Galatians 5:19
The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery;
Colossians 3:5
Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry.
Hebrews 13:4
Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.
Genesis 2:24
For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh.

**What part of the bible does it say for us not to have sex underage?
I tried finding it... but i dont think that it is in there... how do we know what age we are suposed to... what happends if we dont want to wait? what happends if I get raped... will that be bad because i didnt save my virginity?**
Hello, hey there is no such thing to be found in the Bible.The documentation if believed says
Maryam had Yashua at age 14.
Stop worrying,
The Creator is not foolish. All things being perfect the correct time is at the start of menses.However because we are no longer
sheep herders depending on children for labor
and support,it is best to wait until you fully mature and only you can say when that is.
So chill,

The bible doesn't mention an age. In fact back then people often got married very young, like 13-16 years old. However the bible talks plenty about purity which basically means waiting until you're in a committed marraige relationship to have sex. Outside of marraige, even lusting after someone is a sin (Matthew 5), much less having sex with them.

If you are raped then it was out of your control and it isn't counted against you. But as far as what age to start having sex is up to you really. God just says don't do it without a husband or with someone else's husband. He wants us to enjoy sex. So you can have all the sex you want as long as your married. If you feel that you can't wait for sex then you should get married. But only get married if you promise to keep your vows and that would mean to love the person you married. Even if you don't really love him at first, you should learn to love him. If your not ready for marriage then you shouldn't be having sex. I hope I helped you. Oh yeah they talk about being raped in the bible and how it isn't against you.

There is no underage provision about sex.
There is a prohibition about lustful sex and the emphasis of sex within the marriage.
And what defines virginity?
Western Notions put a lot of emphasis on an intact hymen, so if you perform all the oral and anal that you can tolerate, you are technically still a virgin because you've had no vaginal sex.
And heavy exercise or sport can damage a hymen as well.
I prefer the Greek notion of virginity.
You are a virgin until you give yourself fully to your husband.
(For them, if a woman had a small dowry, it was OK for her to beef it up by engaging in prostitution. This is business now!)

I don't read the bible, but as far as an age? Use common sense. If you have to ask yourself if you're ready to have sex, you're probably not. Wait until you're in a loviing and commited relationship. Secondly, check your state's laws, because there are legal ages for consent, and you don't want to get your partner into any legal trouble if he is of age and you are not.
Secondly, if you are raped, which is highly unlikely I would hope, that means you're not consenting. Hopefully, the person you do choose to share your life with later on would understand that.

It's obviously not you're choice to lose your virginity if you get raped, so that doesn't really count as going out and losing your virginity. The Bible talks about saving yourself for the man you marry. Remain pure for him (and he's supposed to do likewise). I think the message it's trying to convey is respect yourself by not sleeping around and exposing yourself to problems you don't really need to mess with.

I will answer your stupid question. It doesn't say in the bible for underage children not to have sex commonsense and the law does.
Underage children are to immature (your question proves it) to have sex
As a result you could become pregnant and have to raise a baby, you could get sexually transmitted diseases, you will get a bad reputation.
If you are raped it is a different story altogether, you couldn't prevent it.
Next time ask a sensible question.

It doesn't say anything about an minimum age for sex but it does say that after you have slaughtered all of the adults in a race it is permissible to take the female children as sex slaves (Numbers 31: 17-18).
Also if you get raped you better protest about it loudly because in
Deut. 22:21 Stoning women for being rape victims and not crying out against it loudly enough.
Also in Deut. 22:21 & Lev. 21:9 it states that women should be stoned or burned to death for not being virgins. It makes no mention of marrage.
