Galatians 5:19
19 The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity
and debauchery;
Romans 6:12
12 Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey
its evil desires.
What does God think about sex?
Genesis 2:24-25
24 For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united
to his wife, and they will become one flesh.
25 The man and his wife were both naked, and they felt no shame.
--God created sex. He made men and women as sexual beings-to reproduce
the next generation and to use sex as a means of expressing love between
a husband and wife.
What does the bible have to say about premarital sex(sex before marriage)?
1 Corinthians 7:2-4
2 But since there is so much immorality, each man should have his own
wife, and each woman her own husband.
3 The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise
the wife to her husband.
4 The wife's body does not belong to her alone but also to her husband.
In the same way, the husband's body does not belong to him alone but also
to his wife.
Hebrews 13:4
4 Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure,
for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.
--Sex is to be reserved for the commitment of marriage
Is sex only for reproduction, or did God want husbands and wives to enjoy it?
Proverbs 5:18-20
18 May your fountain be blessed, and may you rejoice in the wife of
your youth.
19 A loving doe, a graceful deer-- may her breasts satisfy you always,
may you ever be captivated by her love.
20 Why be captivated, my son, by an adulteress? Why embrace the bosom
of another man's wife?
--Sex is not only for reproduction, but it is also for husbands and
wives to enjoy and should be used as an expression of love for one another.
Is it 'sexual sin' if I think about sex with someone?
Exodus 20:17
17 "You shall not covet your neighbor's house. You shall not covet
your neighbor's wife, or his manservant or maidservant, his ox or donkey,
or anything that belongs to your neighbor."
Matthew 5:27-28
27 "You have heard that it was said, 'Do not commit adultery.'
28 But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already
committed adultery with her in his heart.
--Lust is adultery in the heart. When you have imagined having sex
with someone, you may not have had actual sex with them, but in your heart
you have.
How can I fight the temptation to have sex? It's so powerful in today's world.
1 Corinthians 10:13
13 No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God
is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But
when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand
up under it.
