Biblical Sex 1

“Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war upon the soul;” – 1 Peter 2:11. The Apostle Paul used these exact words to open up his message on sex and lust when he spoke to all of Asia Minor. Unfortunately, his message must have fallen on deaf ears; because over 1900 years later, the world has the same problems and they are a little more out of control.

Today we witness sex on TV, in our movies, in our magazines, on our billboards, and in our newspapers. We have shops that sell pornography and sex toys. We have people as young as 9 years old having “consensual” sex. Schools are trying to teach “safe sex” to our children at a young age. We have people trying to make homosexual lifestyles into a form of legal marriage. This saddens and honestly sickens me to see something as sacred as sex (the way it was intended), misused in such horrendous fashions.

What can we do? Well for starters, let’s teach our children “biblical sex,” you know sex the way God intended and instituted, instead of teaching them it is ok to have sex as long as you wear a condom. I know you are sitting there right now thinking “I guess since I’m a Christian, sex can’t be fun because I have to follow rules.” Believe it or not, if you follow God’s rules, sex can become even greater than it is without them. It is my goal to take you, the reader, through God’s Word and teach you what God intended sex to be, how mankind made it perverse and sometimes an abomination before our Lord.

A word of warning…. Reading this article may offend some people due to their chosen style of life. If what I have to say offends you, then you need to check your lifestyle and see if it glorifies God.

So let’s start part one of this series called “God’s Institution and Intention.”

God’s Institution and Intention

What is God’s idea of sex? Why did he create sex? Why do most churches teach that all sex is evil and frowned upon in the eyes of the Lord? When is it ok to have sex? To answer these questions, first we must understand what God says through His Word. So let’s start at the very beginning with Adam and Eve. You may not know it but God explains pretty clearly what He intended sex to be and what reason He created it in the first two chapters of Genesis!
