It is better than no "habitation" at all?

In the bible, the creator's clearly states a bad outcome for those who cohabitate. At 1st Corinthians, Chapter 6 verse 9-through the first part of verse 11, under inspiration of God's spirit, Apostle Paul wrote to the Corinthian Christians, "What! Do you not know that unrighteous persons will not inherit God's kingdom? Do not be misled. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men kept for unnatural purposes, nor men who lie with men, nor thieves, nor greedy persons, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit God's kingdom. and that was was some of you were.....
It is apparent that these practices are considered unrighteous in God's eyes. Paul indicates that some of the Corinthian Christians practiced these things in the past by using the words " some of you were" in verse 11. However, they realized that in order to have God's approval they had to forsake an independent spirit that is so prevalent among humans today, and stop practicing the things God considered unrighteous. Notice that God's warns that anyone who practices these things will NOT inherit his kingdom. I have found no instance in the Bible where a person can violate God requirements and have his blessing now or in the future.

The bible is against cohabitation unless the two people are married.

I'm sure there are some ramblings in there somewhere about living in sin before marriage. Or, interpreted to say so.
Personally, I don't care what the bible says about it. I want to know if I can live with my partner or not before marriage.

If you are unmarried and having sex, it's referred to as fornication
1 Corinthians 6:18
Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

I guess it would depend on for what purpose. Note it is never the what but the why, as man looks at the what but Christ looks at the why.
