Sex, Marriage, and Singleness, Part 4

Enough talk about bad sex—this week we are looking at God’s design for good sex. Paul begins answering the question about marriage by sharing the rhythm and purpose of sexuality within marriage. While a bit candid and racy, this text lays out a clear plan for a married couple. Actually, the whole of Scripture has some interesting, and shall we say, open things giving married couples permission to love and please each other with their souls and their lives. They belong to Christ first, and then to each other. Their bodies are not their own. To deprive one another is sin. So, it is the call to Christian husbands and wives to serve their spouse in their sexuality and in their spirituality.
