Marriage & Sexuality
Speaker: Mike Knox
The original purpose of marriage-To seal exclusive covenantal relationship between a man and a women, characterized by deep companionship, love and sexual union and within which children are born and raised.
Sex is Holy and sacred-It's not just somethin you do with your body. it's something you do with your soul.
While we are single-we shall remain celibate
God has a better plan for us-learn patience, self control-Will you let Jesus be Lord of your life?
God is love of all people
No one who believes in Christ keeps on sinning. No one who keeps on sinning has either seen him or knows him.
Say no to sin-sexual or any sin
What sins are you attracted to? (temptations)
As a family of God can we make room for people who are same sex attracted?
Attraction (temptation) is not a sin
We live and are saved by Grace
Redeeming Homosexuals' attraction-(for those who are following Jesus)
Attraction is more than physical
Arranged marriages often work
Mature sex seeks the other's pleasure
Speak in Grace and truth-always love one another
God's best plan:
Wait on sex until marriage
marry a person of opposite sex
In God's good timing
Gay or straight
