Seeing the Don’ts in light of the Do’s

All the “don’ts” in the Bible are there to make all the “do’s” the ultimate source of joy, peace, rest, pleasure and contentment.
 
Let’s see one quick example regarding sexual fulfillment:
 
Do’s: “May your fountain be blessed,
and may you rejoice in the wife of your youth.
A loving doe, a graceful deer—
may her breasts satisfy you ALWAYS,
may you ever be INTOXICATED with her love.”
(Proverbs 5:18-19 – capitalization is mine)
 
Don’t: “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.”
(Matthew 5:28-29)

Sex Positions

Regardless of our belief or religious affiliation, most of us are curious about sex positions. We want to know if there is any other sex position we know nothing about. If we are religious people, we want to know which sex positions are considered “holy” and which ones are considered “unholy” or “sinful”. Sure we want to live for God and we want to do the next right thing.
 
In the book of Song of Solomon, the book that mostly talks about love and sex (the best book that pictures the love and oneness of Jesus and His bride, the Church), we find more than one place where “sex positions” are implied; Song 2:6; 8:3 and 8:6a. Other than these verses, I don’t know if there is any other Bible verse that deals with “sex positions”.
 
You may ask: “Why didn’t God list all the biblically accepted sex positions in the Bible?”

Terry Crews Says:

“For years, years and years I was addicted to pornography”
 
“It was my secret that nobody knew and that allowed to grow and it got bad”
 
“My wife literally said, “I don’t know you anymore. I’m outta here.” And that changed me”
 
“I literally had to go to rehab for it”
 
“I did not get help so I could get my wife back. . . I got help because I needed it . . . my wife decided to stay with me because she knew I was repentant; she knew I was going to get help; she knew I was sorry. Let me tell you, IT IS NOT ENOUGH TO JUST ASK FORGIVENESS. It is always necessary to make amends; fix the problem, do whatever you can to fix the problem.” – and Terry said more.

A Crime Called “Being a Christian”

I used to take three of our kids to school in the morning since three of them were in the same school. Now two of them are in high school and my little one is the only one I take to school in the morning.

You have no idea how much I enjoy my morning ride with my son. On our way to school, my little one and I have our morning tradition where we listen to the Family Life Radio program. Before we turn on the radio, we always start our commute with a prayer. We pray turn by turn. If I pray today, he prays tomorrow. I enjoy listening to my kids’ prayer because it somehow tells me the depth of their spiritual understanding.

Yesterday morning was his turn to pray. He prayed and at the end of his prayer, he paused for a good 5 seconds or so and he closed his prayer in the name of Jesus.

“We Accidentally Had Sex”

A4P Guest: My boyfriend and I grew up in church and we both had decided never to have sex before marriage; but yesterday we accidentally had sex. What should we do now?
 
A4P: What does “accidentally” mean?
 
A4P Guest: You know accident that happens before you know it.
 
A4P: Well, I ask this question because sex is not a rock you stumble over when you walk on a street. Sex requires many things to be set in place for it to happen; for example, you have to find a place where you guys can be all alone. But let me ask you. So, why did you guys decide to keep sex for marriage in the first place?
 
A4P Guest: Because Jesus said so.
 
A4P: Did Jesus say “Save sex for marriage?” Where?
