please give me the exact place in the bible where it says it, don't give me--i think or i remember
i want to know exactly where it says it.
 
Marriage doesn’t have any meaning besides economical and social reasons. Beyond that it’s pointless and demeaning love. I mean it’s a contract that you are to love someone. A contract is something that can be bought and sold, so people are putting a price on love.
 
Wrongfully called "pre-marital sex" and "free love" by the worldly crowd, fornication is the act of intercourse between unmarried partners, and it is strictly forbidden in the scriptures. The marriage bed is undefiled (Heb. 13:4), but fornication is an abomination in the sight of God (Rom. 1:28-29; I Cor. 6:13- 20, 7:2, 10:8; Gal. 5:19-21). We read in I Corinthians 6:9-10 that fornicators will not inherit the kingdom of God.


FORNICATION

[for nih KAY shun]-- sexual relationships outside the bonds of marriage. The technical distinction between fornication and ADULTERY is that adultery involves married persons while fornication involves those who are unmarried. But the New Testament often uses the term in a general sense for any unchastity. Of the seven lists of sins found in the writings of the apostle Paul, the word fornication is found in five of them and is first on the list each time <1 Cor. 5:11; Col. 3:5>. In the Book of Revelation, fornication is symbolic of how idolatry and pagan religion defiles true worship of God <Rev. 14:8; 17:4>.

The definition of fornication is sex outside marriage. Just read all the references to fornication there are, and you won't find a good reference. Period.
 
Read the 10 Commandments the word 'Adultery' says it all.
Seventh command: 'You shall not commit adultery.' You are unfaithful, having sex, not married.
 
Mark 7:21
For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
(if it's evil it must be wrong)(fornication)

Acts 15:20
But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication
(abstain from fornication)

Romans 1:29
Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers

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.
(flee fornication)

1 Thessalonians 4:3
For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication

(IFB)
 
1 Corinthians 7:8-9
Now I say to those who aren't married and to widows it's better to stay unmarried, just as I am. But if they can't control themselves, they should go ahead and marry. It's better to marry than to burn with lust.

1 Thessalonians 4:2-8
For you know what instructions we gave you by the authority of the Lord Jesus. It is God's will that you should be sanctified: that you should avoid sexual immorality; that each of you should learn to acquire a wife in a way that is holy and honorable, not in passionate lust like the heathen, who do not know God; and that in this manner no one should cheat his brother or take advantage of him. The Lord will punish men for all such sins, as we have already told you and warned you. For God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life. Therefore, he who rejects this instruction does not reject man but God, who gives you his Holy Spirit.

1 Timothy 5:2
Treat older women as mothers, and younger women as sisters, with absolute purity.

[As a Christian man, if you are not married to her, then she is your sister (who you must treat "with absolute purity").]

That's just a few.....I don't buy any of it as I am atheist, but the Bible is full of versus that condemns premarital sex.

I believe there are even versus that suggest a woman shouldn't even want to have sex with her own husband! Crazy!
 
No. Fornication is through out the new testament. Go to a bible website type in the word and find the scriptures for yourself.
