So what does the Bible actually say about sex? See, most Christians don't actually know what the Bible says. They just take everyone else's word for it. Do you want to know? Let's have a conversation. Too often sex is associated with shame. But actually it's beautiful in mature covenant relationships. Let me show you five ways how beautiful sex is in Scripture. Number one. Sex is one of the first acts that God blesses. God blessed the physical relationship between Adam and Eve. It was God's idea and he created us for it. Number two. The unclothed human body is a divine creation. Our bodies are beautiful beyond comprehension. There's no shame or guilt in what God created. Three, we were created to have sexual desire. Our desires are no surprise to God. He made us and gave us strong sexual desire to practice in proper, mature relationships. 4. God designed physical love to be normal in creation. God's intention is to form an inseparable reunion through sex. So there you go in mature covenant relationships. It's beautiful. Do you want more content like this? Well, like and subscribe for more.
