If sex befoire marriage equals marriage then I wonder how many folks are amrried and don't know it? And how many have more than one spouse?

with that note, I am going to say you are messing with me because you don't really believe that..... you are too liberal to believe that!

I think I will just go ahead and preach that.

I'll sit in the pew and "amen" you...

I don't agree that one is automatically redeemed just because one gets married. One must actually repent of one's sin (meaning not just to be sorry for it but to forsake the sin). Marriage does not redeem, the blood of Christ redeems - and even then it only redeems those who repent.

No, you're still a fornicator because you fornicated. If there is no repentance and, thus, no forgiveness, you remain in your sin.

If repentance means to forsake the sin committed, then for the couple fornicating before marriage, upon getting married are no longer fornicating because they are now married and the intimacy is inside the marriage vows.

So, they HAVE repented of the sin of fornication by getting married.

Is sex before marriage sin? YES!

No, marriage is not an act of repentance.
