Sex before marriage
The topic is about having intimacy (sex) before marriage to see if there is compatibility there. The reality is, it doesn’t matter what subject we are discussing, if you are a born again Christian and you are trusting God with your life, then you definitely must trust His Word, God’s Words must be trusted at all cost. Anytime we feel that our way is better than God’s way there is a huge problem. The thing that normally leads to this false independence is “pride.” God is the creator of everything and we must trust that His way is the only way, no matter what the topic!
Lets get back to the topic at hand. Why would God say don’t fornicate, don’t have sexual intimacy before marriage? I’m sure there are many reasons, one being, this is an expression of love that is to be done in a predetermined covenant of love (i.e. marriage.) Sex is not a window shopping, let’s see it, try it on, and see if it fits, decision. Intimacy glues, ties, and exchanges souls, the two shall become one, and you wouldn’t want to do that with just anybody… I hope. Taking a few moments to look at God’s way shows us how awesome this intimacy is suppose to be. Imagine two people, just married, knowing nothing about sexual intimacy, being new clay with no existing impressions, ready to mold and be molded, making a shape of love that only they share. Both being a student of the other, learning and expressing what has been learned, tailor making an intimacy, a fingerprint of their love alone, something that can’t be shared by anyone else…Wow! Learning each other and created to please each other, not bringing in something they learned from someone else or some fly-by relationship. Sex was never suppose to be a matter of experience but a creation of new love between husband and wife. This is completely contrary to the worlds way of thinking, but completely correspondent to the Word. In most areas in society we look for the person with the most experience to hire for a job, to fix our car, or to do handy work around our home, but sex and intimacy was meant to be a blank canvas…fresh, new, and ready for a masterpiece. The experience in true intimacy begins with the married couple, not beforehand. Being new, fresh, and a student is key in every aspect of the relationship, whether it is communication, emotional connections, or physical connections, all are meant to be learned, not something you could possibly know ahead of time. So what I am saying is, “trust God and His ways, His ways are always the best way!
