The word \u201cfornication\u201d (porneia) as I explained, refers to any form of illegitimate sexual relations including sexual relations before marriage. According to this verse, premarital sex is a cause for divorce. Therefore, before entering the covenant of marriage, each spouse must open his heart and confess his or her sins to the other. If one of the partners had a sexually immoral experience before repenting and entering the <a href=\"https:\/\/moldovacrestina.md\/en\/how-to-enter-the-new-covenant-with-the-lord-jesus-christ\/\" target=\"_blank\">New Covenant<\/a>, then the person must be forgiven as Christ forgives and accepts people who repent and makes them a new creation. If the partner is not able to forgive his or her future spouse and may have doubts to the person\u2019s faithfulness in the future then it is better that they not marry. If you are the one who has to do the forgiving then forget the act and never remind the person of it again.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\">\n<p>Marriage is to be held in honor among all, and the marriage bed is to be undefiled ; for fornicators and adulterers God will judge.
