sex?

the mention of this subject raises eyebrows all over the world with extra shyness that is quite incongrous to everyone. the question is how long can you quite avoid it and how long can you imagine it is a subject of the married or rather the populace who are active sexually? i think ther is more than meets the eye.
this subject is thus different from the way the lord meant it to be read along these very vital aspects of sex the christian way:

1. Sex is God-given. Satan cannot offer anything in this realm
other than distortion and emptiness. Sex was created by God
to allow a husband and wife to express oneness through
intimate and exclusive love. Our Creator designed sex to be
pleasurable. Read Song of Solomon 4:1–16.


2. God created sex to be both a physical and a spiritual bond.
He made two people out of one, and the two are not complete
until they become one again through the sexual union
within marriage.


And Adam said: “This is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh;
she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.”
Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined
to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. And they were both
naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
—Genesis 2:23–24

3. God created sex to have purposeful boundaries. Anything
outside of this total and exclusive covenant between husband
and wife is destructive.
. . . “For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and
be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh”? So
then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has
joined together, let not man separate.
—Matthew 19:5–6

4. The God-given purposes for sexual intimacy are these:

a. Unity—“Man shall . . . be joined to his wife” (Gen. 2:24).

b. Comfort—“Isaac . . . took Rebekah and she became his
wife, and he loved her. So Isaac was comforted after his
mother’s death” (Gen. 24:67).

c. Procreation—“Then God blessed them, and God said to
them, ‘Be fruitful and multiply’” (Gen. 1:28).

d. A defense against temptation—“Nevertheless, because
of sexual immorality, let each man have his own wife,
and let each woman have her own husband. . . . Do not
deprive one another except with consent for a time . . . so
that Satan does not tempt you because of your lack of
self-control” (1 Cor. 7:2, 5).

A husband is commanded to find satisfaction (Prov.
5:19) and joy (Eccles. 9:9) with his wife and to concern
himself with meeting her unique needs (Deut. 24:5; 1 Pet.
3:7).

A wife is responsible for availability (1 Cor. 7:3–5),
preparation and planning (Song of Sol. 4:9), interest
(Song of Sol. 4:16; 5:2), and sensitivity to her husband’s
needs (Gen. 24:67).

so think about it and ponder to reveal the atmosphere within which you wish to lie upon
