The scriptures repeatedly talks about sexual immorality, fornication falls under that
The english translations point out fornication to be sex befor marriage and the oxford dictionary. But the greek and hebrew translation point out fornication to be incest. (which one is right) ?

chuckle chuckle now theres more reason why its not a sin imagine how many people where spiritually wed befor paper was invented ? i bet it was millions:)
You really are creative, but really what do you actually have against legal marriage. If you love someone then why wouldn't you want to make it right in the eye's of the Lord and men.

Although not as much today, women do get looked down upon for shacking up. Do you care about what people think about the person that you love or how that makes them feel?

I do not know what do you mean by a marriage certificate.

They had to be officialy joined together by an authority.

Like today state/church and parents are the authority.

The document written somewhere is only a way of how to register it. Not very applicable in, for example, jungle :)
Try telling that to my fiancees father who beat me and tried to strangle me for being a thief.

Fornication is sexual intercourse between people not married to each other. regardless of the term used whoredom,” “fornication etc it's still sexual immorality

I have nothing bad to say against legal marriage as long as its for the right reasons. (which you know in man cases marriage helped a person get immigration papers.

Marriage made a person rich.

Being leagally married made the person become a self cedntred pig who used it as a blackmail tool to get what they want.

Again why wouldnt a legal partnership where by two people who are in love follow all the rules of marriage be pleasing to God

Imagine the possibility of sinning against God & having absolutely no fear of sinning against God.

When there's no fear of God & no real caring, I would question the validity of someone's salvation.

God wants us to obey the laws of the land, too, right. That's the law in most places and it's there for a reason. :)

Now your just argueing on the back of your own understanding and not providing any evidence just saying.

Im sorry if the truth offends you and you have believed a lie its common and i dont blame you for this in any way.

The most clear of all scripture concerning sex or love as i prefer to call it befor marriage God doesnt call it a sin but blesses it with marriage.

Now if it was just sex befor marriage and not lovemaking then i think you could call it a sin. love making God finds holy and sacred.

And i bet most here have expericed the diffrence between sex and love making

Only if you know what you are doing is a sin. which as of yet ive had plenty of people calling it a sin but no real concrete evidence or clear cut evidence to back there claim up.

What? What are you even talking about? Why would I be offended? You are constantly rejecting the truth & only hear what you want to hear . Sexual immorality is a sin there is no debating it.

According to some's doctrine, christians are held against their will & couldn't be lost no matter what. In the end, you can do whatever you want.

What always stumped me though is HOW DOES GOD BRING YOU BACK with no conviction, no repentance, no confession..... somehow He can just change your mind without effort.

How exactly does God do that?

I've heard all their one-verse wonders, but never any explanation of how God manages that.

Yeah well you can think you're in love with someone for a while, but then as the Righteous Brothers put it you can lose that loving feeling:p

Without being legally married it's really easy just to move on and say your in love with someone else and make love to them. There are no legal consequences for someone who is not legally married.

In our culture, the agreement of parents is not needed for a marriage, I think. But I would not go into a marriage with a girl that has a terrible family...

But it is your decision, I do not know all circumstances.

So your calling a sacred act of love bewteen a man and a women sexual immorality. its hardy a sin when your leagaly married by our corrupt govermant is it. but you can be sure that it soon will become just that for a lot of leagally married people.

Maybe not in there eyes or your eyes but in Gods eyes there would be.
Especilay if God blessed there relationship in the first place. like you have allready pointed out millions of people didnt have a a leagally binding certificate until paper was invented.

That is for people who are "married" what are you not understanding about that. You would resolve all your issues if you simply got married instead of playing married. Perhaps it would have to take God himself to tell you that. But by that time he will be giving eternal judgement not lectures

I think God does convict everyone of sin in their heart, and that's how we know if we mess up. How else does he teach us that something is wrong?

I think that's Jimbo's problem he is feeling convicted. He even admitted that he has felt conviction over this, but yet, he is still trying to justify it too.

I have allready pointed out that i do feel convicted that it could be a sin im not heartless like you who automatically assumes that people have no conviction.

But the fact remains the only clear scripture on this matter God blesses love befor marriage with marriage ( he also wed people spiritually when there was no paper.)

Yes your right but then God did marry people befor it became a legal piece of paper too.
