I found that statement on the website (http://www.repentamerica.com/goodenough.html) and although I knew premarrital sex was a sin I have never heard that it is a sin God will not forgive or one he will condemn a man or woman to hell for. Any information or thoughts?

I thought I worshiped a forgiving God who would accept my apologies for sinning if I ask and love Him

It may have been cited in the Old Testament.However, In the New testament all sin is equal with exception of blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. And since all of us sin in some way, we are all at risk of hell. And yes, God does forgive your sins, so if you do what you are supposed to do, believe in Jesus and ask for forgiveness then your risk is lessened. Diminished but not dissolved.

Indeed, God is forgiving. The first thing we must recognize is that all sin is worth sending a person to hell for, but the second thing we must recognize is that God sent Christ Jesus to pay for that sin, no matter how grave it might be. He is a forgiving God, and Christ's sacrifice is enough to cover any sin.

Of course, God also never really commanded a marriage ceremony that I know of... generally, I believe it was the act of consummating a relationship that caused the knot to be tied between two individuals. However, that was done in old times with the understanding (and perhaps vows) that the two were forming a faithful, lifelong relationship with each other. So perhaps there is no such thing as pre-marital sex... or perhaps there is, but a marriage ceremony is not necessary (that is, perhaps vows are enough). Either way, I am glad that I serve a God who is faithful and just to forgive all of our sins, and cleanse us of all unrighteousness.

I don't believe there is any sin that God cannot forgive, except blasphemy of the Holy Spirit.
On the other hand, any sin commited, and we all sin, is grounds for separation from God eternally. God is so holy, sin cannot dwell in His presence.
Thank God for Jesus' blood which cleanses us from ALL unrighteousness.

This is the message he has given us to announce to you: God is light and there is no darkness in him at all. So we are lying if we say we have fellowship with God but go on living in spiritual darkness. We are not living in the truth. But if we are living in the light of God's presence, just as Christ is, then we have fellowship with each other, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, cleanses us from every sin.
If we say we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves and refusing to accept the truth. But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us and to cleanse us from every wrong. If we claim we have not sinned, we are calling God a liar and showing that his word has no place in our hearts.

Unless they repent and ask forgiveness- they will go to hell. It is not an unforgiveable sin by no means! The only unforgiveable sin is rejecting Christ- blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. But if you repent of sin and ask the Lord to forgive you- you will be forgiven.

No, God will forgive any sin you commit. If premarital sex automatically put you in Hell then no one would believe, or they would say "what's the use." You don't go to Hell for premarital sex. Jesus loves you. God Bless

1 Corinthians 6:9-14 (Amplified Bible)

9Do you not know that the unrighteous and the wrongdoers will not inherit or have any share in the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived (misled): neither the impure and immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor those who participate in homosexuality,

10Nor cheats (swindlers and thieves), nor greedy graspers, nor drunkards, nor foulmouthed revilers and slanderers, nor extortioners and robbers will inherit or have any share in the kingdom of God.

11And such some of YOU WERE [once]. But you were washed clean (purified by a complete atonement for sin and made free from the guilt of sin), and you were consecrated (set apart, hallowed), and you were justified [pronounced righteous, by trusting] in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the [Holy] Spirit of our God.

12Everything is permissible (allowable and lawful) for me; but not all things are helpful (good for me to do, expedient and profitable when considered with other things). Everything is lawful for me, but I will not become the slave of anything or be brought under its power.

13Food [is intended] for the stomach and the stomach for food, but God will finally end [the functions of] both and bring them to nothing. The body is not intended for sexual immorality, but [is intended] for the Lord, and the Lord [is intended] for the body [[a]to save, sanctify, and raise it again].

14And God both raised the Lord to life and will also raise us up by His power.

In Christ, we are forviven for the past, present, and future. You are saved by GRACE. Let me reemphasize that YOU WERE!!! If you are in Christ, you are ___________ no longer.

No there is no particular verse.

Hell is simply the grave,where all the dead goes. so all people who dies goes there.

As for fornication, it is a sin, and is not favorable in God's eyes. God does forgive, ask for forgiveness and dont do fornication again or get married. =)

If the Christian god had any sense, all sex would be condemnable unless it was to yield a child.
