8 Bible Verses about Reasons To Wait For Marriage

Let marriage be held in honour among all, and let the marriage bed be unpolluted; for fornicators and adulterers God will judge.

For be well assured that no fornicator or immoral person and no money-grubber--or in other words idol-worshipper--has any share awaiting him in the Kingdom of Christ and of God.

Or do you not know that a man who has to do with a prostitute is one with her in body? For God says, "The two shall become one." But he who is in union with the Master is one with Him in spirit.

and said, For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two shall be one'?

Love is patient and kind. Love knows neither envy nor jealousy. Love is not forward and self-assertive, nor boastful and conceited.

For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentile nations because of you, as Holy Writ declares.

Let no one think slightingly of you because you are a young man; but in speech, conduct, love, faith and purity, be an example for your fellow Christians to imitate.

Whether, then, you are eating or drinking, or whatever you are doing, let everything be done to the glory of God.
