SEXUALITY - the BIBLE DARES to TALK ABOUT IT!ናሙና

1 Corinthians 7:3-4 (NLT): The husband should fulfill his wife’s sexual needs, and the wife should fulfill her husband’s needs. The wife gives authority over her body to her husband, and the husband gives authority over his body to his wife.

Proverbs 5:18-19 (NIV): May your fountain be blessed, and may you rejoice in the wife of your youth. A loving doe, a graceful deer—may her breasts satisfy you always, may you ever be intoxicated with her love.

Song of Songs 8:6 (NLV): Put me over your heart and on your arm, never to be taken off. For love is as strong as death. Jealousy is as hard as the grave. Its bright light is like the light of fire, the very fire of the Lord.

Song of Songs 5:1 (NIV): I have come into my garden, my sister, my bride; I have gathered my myrrh with my spice. I have eaten my honeycomb and my honey; I have drunk my wine and my milk. Eat, friends, and drink; drink your fill of love.

Hebrews 13:4 (NIV): Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.

Couple’s Sexuality - Two Responsible Adults - Part 2

Our God has given us the Holy Spirit and a brain to enable us to think in a balanced way about the delicate subject of sexuality.

Biblical sexuality requires the consent and agreement of both spouses to try this or that technique. A green light in the hearts of both husband and wife is essential if respect is to be established between the two.

If one of them feels a red light in his or her heart, a frank and determined "no," the techniques or ideas discussed are not for that couple. Quite simply.

If there is a yellow light in the heart of either spouse, the conversation is welcome. Where does the reluctance come from? Is it due to wounds, lack of forgiveness, or something else? Is it possible to reconcile the different opinions of the spouses? Where does the motivation for trying come from? Prayerful dialogue is the key to turning that yellow light into a red light or simply into a green light.

Sexuality aims to give pleasure to the other person. Since it is a virtuous circle, both spouses focus on each other's pleasure and happiness and are blessed.

It is, therefore, inconceivable to seek to inflict pain on one's spouse to feel pleasure. Let us never forget that the sexual act between two spouses is a representation of the mystery of the loving relationship of Christ and His Church. Jesus blesses, heals, uplifts...

This does not mean that anything and everything is allowed, but that the couple themselves, with the help of the Holy Spirit, draw the boundaries of their sexual relationship, the one to glorify God.
