Should couples live together before marriage?

Should couples live together before marriage? Is it Biblical?

[arugboojo]

I don't think it is good for couples to live together before marriage as the temptations to sin are rather great when you are living with the one you love. Therefore it is not biblical.

As long as you resist the temptation, I don't see how it's not biblical. If anything, living together and resisting the temptation seems like it would show a strong loyalty to God and the Bible.

Can we have more views???

brethren, it is wrong.
this is because of so many reasons as itemized belw.
1.     There is a greater risk of temptation
2.     According to African Traditional Culture, the bride price has not been paid and as such they are    not            eligible to live together
3.     If anything happens such as death(God forbid!) the guy or girl habouring the opposite sex will be sentenced to death by hanging or otherwise.
thats all for now

The major challenge of living together is the temptation to always have sex. I suggest that if two intending couples want to be living together; they shouldn't make it an everyday affair (living); maybe, the opposite sex should visit once in a blue moon and they fight out the temptation to have sex.
