You seem to confuse the term “adultery” (marital infidelity) with premarital sex.

The former is indeed a sin. The latter isn’t.

Christ is clear about the conditions under which two are to be joined together as one.

Liberal culture is festooned with examples of how ignoring His directions works out.

Abortions, STDs, single “parents” - etc etc.

But hey, go ahead - eat it - you can be “just like God” and make up your own rules... until the due penalties kick in.

“You seem to confuse the term “adultery” (marital infidelity) with premarital sex.

According to Roman Catholic teaching, BOTH are Mortal sins, condemning one to Hell for all eternity, although the adultery may be worse, since it violates the marriage covenant and threatens the family structure.

What? Lol, dude, have you read the Bible or are claiming to be a Christian? This is basic knowledge and saying what you said is an egregious error. Sexual immorality is what it is normally called.

1 Corinthians 7:2 - But because of the temptation to sexual immorality, each man should have his own wife and each woman her own husband.

(Acts 15:20; 1 Corinthians 5:1; 6:13, 18; 10:8; 2 Corinthians 12:21; Galatians 5:19; Ephesians 5:3; Colossians 3:5; 1 Thessalonians 4:3; Jude 7). The Bible promotes complete abstinence before marriage. Sex between a husband and his wife is the only form of sexual relations of which God approves (Hebrews 13:4).

Great resource for exploring the Bible and questions of such nature: https://www.gotquestions.org/sex-before-marriage.html
