NO GIRLFRIEND, NO OOPS I'M MARRIED, AND NO POSSIBLE ADULTERY

If you don't want to get hurt on a motorcycle, it's a good idea to stop popping wheelies. And if you don't plan on marrying the virgin, its a good idea to stay away from her.
Exodus 22:16 TS2009 “And when a man entices a maiden who is not engaged, and lies with her, he shall certainly pay the bride-price for her to be his wife.
Romans 7:2-3 TS2009 2 For the married woman has been bound by Torah to the living husband, but if the husband dies, she is released from the Torah concerning her husband. 3 So then, while her husband lives, she shall be called an adulteress if she becomes another man’s. But if her husband dies, she is free from that part of the Torah, so that she is not an adulteress, having become another man’s.
The way the world sees marriage is not the way our Creator Elohim (God) made it to be.
When we were formerly unbelievers walking according to our own lusts, we would find and take whatever mate pleased us without any regard of who the rightful husband may be, if there be. And if the young lady, a virgin, never had sex, little did she know that her first sexual intercourse would be her husband. I'm sure if the man knew the universal law on marriage, he may have not gone into her, or not left her. I'm sure if we even had these teaching in the pulpit of our many lost churches today, many people would be blessed with natural families not founded in the curses of sin.
It is quite common for young men of age 22 or so to claim they have no wife, but if you ask them about the virgins they slept with, they in fact already have at least one or more lawful wives.
Its not the dress, planning, the church, pastor, or wedding invitations that make a marriage, but when Dick meets Virginia.
When Ya'aqob (or Jacob) slept with Leah by accident, at the switching of the daughters by Laban the father, Ya'aqob took Leah to wife according to the Torah (or law), since he went into her, thinking it was Rachel. He loved Rachel, but honored the marriage through sex with Leah:
Genesis 29:23-25 TS2009 23 And it came to be in the evening, that he took Lĕ’ah his daughter and brought her to Yaʽaqoḇ. And he went in to her. 24 And Laḇan gave his female servant Zilpah to his daughter Lĕ’ah as a female servant. 25 And in the morning it came to be, that see, it was Lĕ’ah. So he said to Laḇan, “What is this you have done to me? Was it not for Raḥĕl that I served you? Why then have you deceived me?”
If only we had that kind of love today to honor with our lives the choices we make to keep our lawful wife and not send her away in ignorance. Imagine the foster children that would have true mothers and fathers, and wives loving the person who went into them, and not left looking for love in all the wrong places.
If only we would have listened to our Creator, then we wouldn't have gotten ourselves into so much turmoil.
So what do we do now? There's only one way out of the turmoil. Repent! Leave the adultery we're married into or shacking with, remain single, or return to the lawful husband, seek the face of Elohim (God), ask forgiveness by His Son יהושע (Yahusha) Messiah, and go sin no more.
"What must I do to be saved," questions a rich young ruler.. and Messiah said back to him, "If you wish to enter into life [the kingdom of Elohim], keep the commandments," Matthew 19:17.
