1 Corinthians 10:13 check it out
No, Paul said it. "Two become one flesh" is the consummation of a relationship. The act joins you with your partner, if you do it with another person, that makes you a harlot and a fornicator.
Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a harlot? Certainly not! Or do you not know that he who is joined to a harlot is one body with her? For “the two,” He says, “shall become one flesh.”
That's the historical and cultural context, Pharisees frequently married, divorced and remarried just for sex. Don't take my word for it, do your own research.
You can call anything "healthy" with impunity, even if it's not. It's just cheesy marketing buzzword.
Lord Jesus himself, Matt. 19:9. "And I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery; and whoever marries her who is divorced commits adultery.”" In biblical logic, sex joins you and your partner, married or not; if you go for another, even if you two have broken up or divorced, it'll still be adultery. Like everything else, God's original creation was perfect, humans ruined it. Lord Jesus acknowledged it, "but in the beginning it was not so."
1 Corinthians 10:13 is talking about temptation. It is not talking about general life situations like marriage, or hefty responsibilities you take up. The Greek word used here for “temptation” can actually be used to mean both suffering and sin. If you look at the context of the whole passage here, we find that Paul is specifically addressing sin (not suffering). Verse 6 addresses those who “desire evil.” In verse 7 Paul addresses “idolaters,” showing the context of this passage is sin. Verse 8 identifies this idolatry specifically as “sexual immorality.” The next verses continue to address sin as we read of “put[ting] Christ to the test” in verse 9 and grumbling in verse 10. Verse 12 gives the exhortation
“therefore, let anyone who thinks that he stands take heed lest he fall,” which continues the focus of the passage on addressing sin. Verse 13 continues to address sin within the context of these verses. The plain reading of this text makes it reasonable to conclude that Paul chose to use the word “temptation” to address temptation to sin, not trials and suffering.
What you call "sex organs" are primarily designed for peeing, to discharge the waste water out of your body. Is piss filthy or not? Do I really have to spell it out for you? Yet somehow instead of peeing organ, you repeatedly refer to it as "sex organ", I wonder why? Isn't that a sign of human depravity and your filthy mind?
Um......wait. Hold on for a second. I don't mean to sound too crude here, if it comes off that way. Do you know what
else the sex organs are capable of doing? When a man and a woman, er, do the deed, the female reproductive system produces eggs, while the male reproductive system produces sperm. When sperm meets and joins with an egg, that's called "fertilization" or "conception." This joined cell now holds all the genetic instructions to build another person. A baby forms in the womb, and, eventually, after nine months, the muscles of the uterus squeeze and push to remove the baby from the mother's body.
Clearly this is a rather intricate system. Did God create all these things when he created the human body? Or are they all there via weird coincidence? Apparently, God created very intricate and complex sex organs, but, from the very beginning, apparently, God viewed sex as the "filthy deeds of an animal." Huh? So whenever a married Christian couple has sex and produces children, apparently, God must be frowning in stern disapproval?
And if sex between a married couple is so bad, why didn't the Old Testament law forbid it? Why didn't Jesus forbid it? Why didn't Paul forbid it? Sex outside of marriage is one thing, That's forbidden. Sex within marriage is quite another. This is permitted. I didn't know this could be all that complicated. However, you yourself don't seem to have any interest in sex or marriage, and seem to view it all as a crude, pointless, dirty distraction. If so, fine, but I don't see why that makes it OK to look down your nose at people who practice marital sex. Do you feel superior to those people? Do you think your own choice and practice of celibacy makes you better than them? Does that play a role in your negative and judgmental attitudes toward sex and marriage?
You seem to have trouble making distinctions between "sex" and "sexual immorality." In your point of view, it's
all bad.
"Two become one flesh" is the consummation of a relationship. The act joins you with your partner, if you do it with another person, that makes you a harlot and a fornicator.
If you're unmarried, yes. Why is this so hard for you to grasp?
You can call anything "healthy" with impunity, even if it's not. It's just cheesy marketing buzzword.
So you're saying a married couple sex is unhealthy? How?
Lord Jesus himself,
Matt. 19:9. "And I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery; and whoever marries her who is divorced commits adultery.”" In biblical logic, sex joins you and your partner, married or not; if you go for another, even if you two have broken up or divorced, it'll still be adultery. Like everything else, God's original creation was perfect, humans ruined it. Lord Jesus acknowledged it, "but in the beginning it was not so."
That didn't answer my question at all. I asked you why you believe sex between a married couple is a bad thing. Not why divorce is a bad thing.
Just because something's permitted or justified doesn't mean it's lauded and encouraged. Again, all things are lawful, but not all things are beneficial.
You can say that about a lot of things. Why not show me an actual, specific Bible verse that condemns or discourages sex between a married couple?
Sex is a ritual for the consummation of marriage, and a necessary evil for human reproduction.
Where does the Bible call sex a "necessary evil"? If you, personally, don't like sex and don't want to have sex, that's fine. But your personal preference doesn't make it "evil" for other married couples to have sex together.
In the NT, particularly Matthew, marriage and babymaking are signs of negligence and sleeping on the job, of indulgence in worldly pleasure and lacking discernment.
What? Like where? Where did Jesus or Paul teach that? Also, in Matthew 24, Jesus is teaching about the End Times. He even specifically refers to the "abomination of desolation" in the Temple. We don't know anything about
when all these events will happen. It's entirely possible they won't happen for decades or centuries. We don't know.
Also, interestingly, enough, according to the Book of Daniel, when the abomination happens, it'll happen after the Antichrist "make a firm covenant with many." The Antichrist will also make a treaty with Israel that will have the term of "one week," (apparently meaning seven years), and midway through that period he'll put an end to offerings at the temple and somehow desecrate it. So, if there's biblically literate people around in that day that are paying attention, well, it won't exactly come with "no warning." It will if you're an unbeliever, though.
