CHAPTER FOUR

REAL PURPOSE OF SEX

Few understand the purpose of sex. They are told that sex is an evolutionary accident. Therefore they assume that anything goes as long as it occurs between consenting adults. But that approach is naïve. It is an unsubstantiated assumption that avoids candidly addressing the question of where sex came from. God created sex to be enjoyed within the marital sanctity. The devil took this and perverted that truth, today homosexuals and pedophiles are pushing for rights. The truth of God's world is being contested, resisted and opposed like never before. But God's world cannot be bound! In the romantic novels, movies and soap operas, sex is always painted as sweet.

In pornographic films, sex is presented as full of ecstasy. This is often presented in the content of cheating, adultery and the likes. All forms of sexual perversion are presented as sweet. People are deceived into believing that fornication, adultery, sleeping with a prostitute and the likes are okay. The bible never denies the short, temporal sweetness that fornication and adultery may present. Quickie sex with a wrong person looks so sweet. But watch out. Sex outside marriage or with the wrong person will bring with it its attendant consequences. This kind of sex will end up in anguish, bitterness, guilt, dirty feelings and so much more. Cheating on your spouse may look fun or sweet, but you are planting seeds, and when the harvest comes, you wouldn't have a nice time.

As a single, you give into the pressure of sex because you want to keep him? You will eventually lose him, because God's principles have been violated. Stop opening your legs, life and destiny to people you hardly know! You can patiently wait to give yourself to that right person, at that right time and oh what a joy! If you are married, please enjoy sex to its fullest. Never deny your spouse of sex. Real sex can only be found in the marriage context, and how sweet, fulfilling, enriching and empowering it is. God reveals that he created both sex and marriage. His reasons for doing so are nothing short of wonderful. Ignora
