If you truly repent and turn from sinful ways you will be forgiven. God knows the heart and nothing is hidden. As far as punishment on earth for sins we commit I would say sure.
If you give yourself freely before marriage it could lead to many things that you could suffer through. Maybe you get impregnated and you have to suffer finiancially and the relationship with the father of the child begins to go south or ends because of stress. Maybe you this does not happen, but you get infected with something (punishment). God will not cause these things to happen, but sometimes it is the price (punisment) we pay for going against warnings that are given form the Creator. Our Heavenly Father knows what is good for us and He also knows what is bad for us. If we choose to be rebelious we cannot complain if there is a down side.
Keeping you in prayer Jake.
