To me sex is something worth cherishing and should only be initiated by a man, and woman that love each other. What is the sense in sharing your body with someone and you don't have any feelings toward that person?
Would you not class it as being foolish to lay down with someone, even after you have lost that special feeling and pretend like everything is alright. One of the biggest things that can happen during such a period, is deceiving the person that you're totally into them and you're not.:rolleyes:
Plus, I fully support the bible's stance of marrying before sex, even though I've broken that trend, I can prevent any such action re-occuring in my life, simply put.
Life is too short to enjoy it in the wrong way, do the right thing and wait until you feel comfortable, and is at the podium with your husband/wife:)

Been there done that and you are right sex is a blessing given by God to bring forth children and bring two people together to create one body and mind funny though he made it fell so special. My opinion is it should be saved for the marriage bed?

Bible makes it perfectly clear - not unless you are married. Now, being divorced, it is very difficult to imagine not being intimate with anyone again unless I remarry. It is human nature to desire that, especially all the more once you have had that feeling, you just want it all the more. Each person must be accountable for their actions...but never forget, the bible is not multiple choice...its the infallible word of God!!

To me, sex is something which was originally created by God for two main purposes: bonding between spouses, and procreation. Unfortunately, we as a race have often corrupted it for our own selfish purposes, which has led to the current view of many that sex is simply for fun, and nothing else.

First, I believe that God created marriage for many reasons, and one of those is to contain the power and emotion of the human sex drive. Let's face it: unless that desire were somehow controlled, everyone would literally be having sex with everyone else! As evidenced by the enormous amount of pornography in the world, and high rates of rape or molestation, our fallen nature can't be trusted to contain sexual urges. There must be some kind of objective boundary, where those feelings can be expressed without fear or pain. That's where marriage comes into the picture.

Secondly, I believe that it is the equal duty of both spouses (not just one) to serve each other's sexual needs, and also to be selfless about it. Men are not to lord some imaginary "right beyond reason" for sex over their wives, and women are not to use their bodies as tools for selfish manipulation towards their husbands. The sexual union between a husband and wife should be one of mutual love and respect, both for their spouse and God.

Thirdly, I believe that man has made some of the specifics regarding marital bliss a lot more difficult than they need to be. People from all walks of life try to dictate what should or shouldn't be done, in what positions, where, and with what artificial assistance (if any at all). My personal view on this is that unless the Bible specifically forbids it, then such matters should be left between the husband, the wife, and God.

This is a very sacred subject that should be held in it's highest respect. It can be a fire that can keep you warm when God's instructions are followed in full but it can be a fire that can destroy when it is missused. You can find alot about a person's heart by the way they use or miss use this sacred gift.

You responses are well placed and justifiable, if I should say so. Which there were more people that hold sex at such a high level and know it should be always kept sacred. Come to think of it, where would we all be if were not for sex, basic and natural human reproduction?
People should realize that life is short, we were blessed with only one and so everything should be done to make things right sexually, and with GOD.
Time is of the essence after all

Sex is a way to get a intimate connection with the one we love; although it should be between a husband and wife; we all know that is not always the case. sex as in the bible is the way man and women got to know each other and grow closer. it was not always based on love, some was from obligation as a brother was to take the wife to be his and give her children after her husband dies. it was the marriage ( wedding ) of the man and woman. as it was with Jacob and Leah; whicn he wanted Racheal. but after sleeeeping with her sister he had to keep her as his wife or she would have been defiled of him. so knowing all this sex hass become a way I give myself to my husband and he is the only one that can see my nakedness. my most intimatly part; my heart and my soul I open up to him when we are together, and I see his as well. one part bonding, a life time of peace.

Hi there

Well to me sex is a gift from god, this is god's wedding present to you both, once you are married under his watchful eye then you can have sex to show your symbol of love, this should NOT be abused, if so then....well i wouldn't want to be in your shoes ;)
