Whole Bible Applications: Sex
Bruce S. Bertram from The Word of God Ministries and http://www.wholebible.com takes on a difficult subject of applications from the Bible in the area of sex.
This subject always gets people's attention, doesn't it? God's Word tells us that sex is for a man and a woman in a marriage. There is no other place for it, even though perverse people keep pushing the envelope.
Some of the sex laws overlap with clean and unclean. Most of these are in Leviticus 15 and our video Whole Bible Applications: Clean and Unclean and can be followed with great profit. As I've said before, we don't always know the connection between laws and consequences, but that doesn't mean they don't exist. It also doesn't mean that consequences are the only reason for the law.
Rules concerning sex are some of the clearest examples of our stupidity. How far has the person drifted from God who needs a law about sex with animals? (Leviticus 18:23.) What soul is so cut off from the light of God that it gives itself over to sex with the same gender? (Leviticus 18:22, Romans 1.)
Perverse acts arise from lightless depths of hatred for God and all He is or has created. It is very clear that people who practice perversion are driven by hatred to the extent they want to destroy God, starting with His Word. In the process, they destroy other people in addition to themselves. If we are in the light as He is in the light, hate cannot continue.
This is not an all-inclusive guide to sex. I'm just covering some of the rules that directly bear on it. Many other "laws" come to bear also, such as loving others as God has loved us and love others as you do yourself. As far as I know there isn't any action prohibited between two married people of opposite gender as long as parts go together as they are designed to go together. Sensitivity and compassion should be the rule for figuring out what's an acceptable activity and what is not.
Sex is the physical expression of a spiritual connection. It isn't just physical. It is only right and fulfilling when it is done with God. Where two people are gathered together, He is there in the midst. It is like the two angels over the Ark of the Covenant with wings touching and God speaking from between them. That's why sex outside of the way He designed things induces guilt and hateful feelings. When our spirits are wrong, so is sex. When God isn't involved, sex is worse than physical injury because the soul itself is burned or seared.
Good sex is not an end in itself. It is just a stronger connection point coming out of daily devotion to each other. It is necessary in some ways because our bodies are designed for it, but it's not just the body that's involved. It involves the heart and soul too. It is necessary for the soul as well as the body.
