I think when you have sex you are married in the eyes of God. He not need a paper to say you married. So, there really no such thing as sex before marriage, sex is the union of a man and woman, and you are to be as one and have no others.
I not sure of your Bible Version, but, read; Genesis 24:67. You can read the whole chapter, but, read verse 67 a few times maybe you see what it say in a nice way.

...it is a covenant...to get into detail, in the OT the way they would finalize a covenant was by blood...why do you think that when a girl has sex for the first time-she bleeds? It is a covenant that only a husband & wife should share, never to be broken. In proverbs it talks about a well. The well represents the soul of a man and/or woman, why would you go around sharing your soul with just anyone? It says share your love with nobody except your wife. (spec. speaking to a man.) also, It says why spill your spring in public(spec. speaking to a woman.), having sex with just anyone? It says that a husband should let His wife be a fountain of blessings for him. How can she bless him with a piece of her soul, when she has already given it away to everyone else....(Prov. 5) It is a gift for your spouse, what will you have to give them if you've given all to others...physically, sure...but sex in a marriage should be more than sex,it should connect two on a different level-soul,not just physically.. It's based on the covenant of marriage. I would suggest studying "covenant."

To "fornicate" means to have sex outside of marriage. God's Word speaks against it all over the place. 1 Corinthians 5:9-11; 1 Corinthians 6:9-10; 1 Corithians 7:2; 1 Thessalonians 4:3; Galatians 5:19, etc.etc. It is not too late for you to STOP this act of sin. But it will be too bad for you if you don't. The Lord set boundaries for you and me not because He doesn't want us to have fun. Sin is not bad because it is forbidden. It is forbidden because it is bad, it corrupts, it poisons our life. But WORSE, it seperates us from the love of God to the point that He will no longer hear our prayers ( Isaiah 59:1-2). Is that what you want? The ball is in your court.

1 Thessalonians 4:3 For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:
Acts 15:20 But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood.
Acts 15:29
Acts 21:25
Romans 1:29-32
1 Corinthians 5:1-5
1 Corinthians 6:13-20
Galations 5:19-21
Ephesians 5:3
Colossians 3:5&6
Jude 1:7
To do anything that is different from what the Bible teaches us to do or not to do is the spirit of rebellion.
1 Samuel 15:23 For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft......

Galatians 5:19-21 - "Now the works of the flesh are manifest, and they are fornication, uncleanness, loose conduct, idolatry, practice of spiritism, enmities, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, contentions, divisions, sects, envies, drunken bouts, revelries, and things like these. As to these things I am forewarning YOU, the same way as I did forewarn YOU, that those who practice such things will not inherit God’s kingdom."
1 Corinthians 6:9-10 - "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."

Suppose I had sex several hundred times, as well as 20 other guys had sex with the woman you will eventually marry.
Versus..
You marry a woman who you only had sex with..
Tell me you don't see the difference.

If so, then I guess there is no problem

Because religious leaders are afraid if people have sex before marriage and find out how much fun it is, they'll forget about church, and will delay marriage -- whihc means less contributions to the church.
