ArchivedIs it ok for a man to have no sexual relationship at all?Oops, almost forgot to answer this! I have no clue why sex would be abhorred and feared, and haven't noticed it. Staying sexually pure (pure until marriage and being faithful) is something many people struggle with. Now there HAS been a few super-hypers I've come across that seem to think anything more than once a month missionary style is just plain immoral, but hopefully they're few and far between. As far as choosing a lifestyle where you do not marry and have sex, it's not some great commission we're given, but the point of the verses given on it seems to be this: If you want to remain unmarried and serve God, that's great, because your focus will be on serving God without having to worry about anything getting in the way of that. However, it goes on to say that if you cannot handle a life without sex, it's better to marry than to struggle constantly with lust. My assumption is that people may have gotten the bright idea that they were doing something holy by denying themselves the joy of being married, but being human this would cause a lot of people to struggle with lust and perhaps be committing sexual sins, so we are told not to do that. If you can do it without a problem then good, if you can't DON'T. Chrys |
