Yea, sex isn't wrong between a married couple...that verse only applies to married couples. And yes we are supposed to repent, but why do something that you know is a sin when you can prevent it? If you notice it, was wrong in the Old and New Testament that people are to have sex before marriage. Why do you think Mary Magdalene was about to be stoned? That's what fornication is...sex before marriage ( and sleeping with someone esle while married....)

where is the question? Is it in the title? should you have sex before marriage?
I think from a practical standpoint it is unreasonable to not expect that will happen if both partners are willing.
Also I think relationships that involve premarital sex are more likely to be more realistic than those that do not. What I mean is, if pre-marital sex was forbidden, and nobody did it, divorce rates would be higher...
sexual compatability is an issue, and the bible does not specifically address this problem, furthermore, the bible is written more like a legal/relgious document where from a time where the two were inseparable... this may need to be rethought.
If God truely holds it to be a sin that you have sex before you are married, then you must repent your sins... being saved or born again does not mean that you do not sin, it means that you realize your transgressions and work to be a better person in God's eyes....
Think about it, why would God create a choice if he was to punish you or atleast not forgive you for choosing somthing other than what he would want?

Make your own decisions!! It is easy to make your choices by using the bible as an example. If God is all forgiving then you will not go to hell for having a sexual relationship with someone that you care about.
Remember some of the worst decisions ever made (wars, genocide) came from following the bible.

No, you should not have sex with your g/f... I think that it's better to get married than to have sex end up getting the girl pregnant and then aborting that child, because you're ashamed of what you did.
I that if a person is truly a Christian and believes the Bible, that they can wait...
Wait till you're married.
God bless.

Depends on your beliefs and how you feel personally. What someone else thinks on the subject isn't necessarily how you would think. So do what you feel comfortable doing.

Does your dishonesty ever end? You pretend to ask questions but all you do is abuse Yahoo Answers to proselytize. Your questions are phony and that amounts to lying.

I sure would. I don't want to get married, and I'm a secular Jew.
